How can I write music to make money in The Sims 4?
In The Sims 4, in order to write music, you need to be at least level 8 in the instrument you want to write a song on. However, before that, make sure that you have bought the following tool in the game. In the Sims 4 base game, you can only choose from 3 instruments: piano, guitar, and violin. If you have already chosen one and have reached the required level, follow the steps given below.
- Once you reach level 8 with a specific tool, interact with it.
- Then select the “Write a song”option.
- Then choose the genre of the song you want to compose music for.
- And after that, you will need 12 game hours to complete the process. However, players can always pause the process and then resume it by selecting a sheet or digital music file from their inventory.
- Once the song is complete, just name it.
And that’s how you can easily write music in The Sims 4. Players can also write lyrics, but they’ll need the City Living Expansion Pack to do so. If you want to make some money from the music you create, scroll down to find the steps.
