The Fabrication skill is a key ability in The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle expansion pack. It allows you to fabricate various items using recycled materials.
How do you get the Fabrication skill in The Sims 4?
To unlock the Fabrication skill, enter Build and Buy Mode and buy a recycler and a Fabricator. Use the recycler to get Bits and Pieces and feed them into the Fabricator to craft new items.
To level up your Fabrication skill, keep using the Fabricator to craft new items and talk about recycling and fabrication with other Sims.
Your Sim can unlock additional fabrication recipes when enthusing NPCs about fabrication.
For example, if you’re lucky, you’ll learn how to make Electronic Upgrade Parts early on.
Reaching Level 10 of the Fabrication skill takes time and requires a lot of effort.
But what if you don’t want to wait until your Sim unlocks all the fabrication recipes available in Eco Lifestyle?
Well, you can always use cheats.
The fastest way to improve your Fabrication skill and unlock additional fabrication recipes is through cheats.
Press Shift, Ctrl, and C, and hit Enter. Then, enter the stats.set_skill_level major_fabrication [insert level] command.
Replace [insert level] with a number from 1-10.
For example, to reach Level 10 of the Fabrication skill, enter stats.set_skill_level major_fabrication 10.
What is the best mood for fabrication?
Focus is the best mood to use when using the Fabricator. Focused Sims will improve their fabrication skill 20 percent faster than Sims that don’t have this buff.
