Another mod that compliment Better Build Buy mod is the TOOL mod. It's a mod that lets you resize or move objects to precision. I use that mod if I want to clutter things but the decoration is just slightly bigger and I can scale it down a bit or to lower the in game mirror because they always sits too high.
@@omgkthxbi wdym? It's easy to install. Just drag and drop, it's also unlike Mccc where the setting is complicated. You just put the mod in the mods folder and it's ready to use. For the update, to be fair, a lot of mods break when a new update is out.
@@blameitondanny its not that simple, you have to do unintuitive things like not extracting the zip package before you copy the mod into the mods folder. eta: and to uninstall it you have to make sure its turned off in game before you delete it.
@@omgkthxbi No offense, are you 9 or something? Compressed files has been around since forever. For the uninstalling, you just need to delete the TOOL folder on your mod folder. There's no on/off switch with TOOL. That's what I'm doing and my game didn't break.
@@blameitondanny Yes, compressed files have been around forever, including the fact that you have to EXTRACT the file once you download it, which is not what you do with TOOL. No need to be fucking rude.
I like how you didn't include MCCC, because it's so basic and so necessary at this point that it probably comes installed by default directly from EA, and we're all so used to it we didn't even notice.
This is really helpful! Thank you so much! I've only recently gotten into modding and was literally looking for something just like this: a video explaining the must-have mods, but for ones that are actually still updated for 2023! A lot of the mods I see that are suggested are from posts on reddit from like 6 years ago, but those mods are all outdated and broken now.
Thanks! I don’t why I’m saying thank you. Just kidding. You are making me transition from a transition from console to PC. Ugh. Lol. I really love your videos for newer players or just showing what you use. Of course, your reviews are also awesome. In America, you’re a fun start to my day with my coffee. Have a great day!
I’m glad you’ve joined the PC side 😜 you’ll have a really good time with all the mods. Thank you so much for your support! It makes me happy I’m a part of your morning routine
I'd love to convert to PC when playing Sims but I currently only have a non-gaming laptop and it gets so hot after a few hours so I had to learn to turn it off once in a while (which is probably a good thing, lol).
I think is better to download individual hair/cloths then what you did. That way you only keep the things you really like and want to have in the game. I have the more colums mod and the tool mod. I almost forgot its not part of the game, its really essential.
What a godsend video. I didn’t play sims for 3 years and back then I remember spending so much time looking for maxis match cc and mods. I want to play now that I can have access to to all the dlc but I feel so overwhelmed with how many mods and custom content is out there
MCCC and Wicked Whims are a must have for me at this point. Idk how I'd play without them 😂😂 You should do a lets play w Shanice trying to make it as a stripper 🤣🤣
I would have loved for SNBank to change the money automatically per sim. so objects bought with certain sims selected would be theirs and it come out of their bank, changing sim changes the simoleans you have. that would be soo cool for a legacy challenge and rags to riches!
Wow - that better build/buy mod sounds really good. I have never used mods, but you are changing my mind here... you cheeky ....... with the naturally, kissable lips.... 😌
Another good source for build mode CC is The Plumbob Tea Society, they've stopped making content but they've published a ton, its all very cottagecore too, so it's worth checking out for anyone with cottage living
Mods are the best for The Sims 4 they make the game even more fun and less boring I've seen some really good bed mods for children and toddlers looked it very interesting and fun to play with in Sims 4
You forgot the T.O.O.L. Mod (With this you can put things outside of your lot or multiply things and its useful for building things). I use MCCC, Wonderfulwhims, UI Cheats and BetterBuildBuy and I LOVE functional Objects Mods, I use functional clutter kit, functional book nook kit I love it!
I’m playing a heavy mod game for Regency/Victorian right now with royalty and regency mods. But up next when I done with my obsession is changing those aspirations and that download link. 😍😮😍
Can you tell me more about this mod please? I'm switching from Xbox to PC soon and am trying to learn as much as I can about mods and such, this sounds like something that could benefit me. Thank You
Curse forge has an app where are you can directly download and update apps without manually dragging them into the mods folder. You can even delete them through the app. But sometimes, like with mods with pack dependent components you need to delete stuff manually
@syrax_the_cat Curse Forge is a desktop app that directly interacts with your mod folders to download mods without you needing to know how a game's files work. Creators can also publish updates and the app will redownload the latest versions of mods at the click of a button.
@@hunterghost1453 depends on your pc and the way mods interact with the game and each other. Install to much Cc and the game will take long times to load
For ke the only two must have nods are dine out reloaded and wicked whims. MCCC is really good too but ive only just started using it so i dear nt know it well enough. UI cheats also looks useful but i can see it ruining gameplay for me if i get a little too crazy with it. Wicked whims is the first mod i ever got and if i had to only keed one it would ve that one lol 😂
There are TONS of hair CC. You can literally and easily get 3 to 4 GIGS worth of them. It's not even hard to get twice that much. Don't go overhead. The recommended amount of RAM to play is 8Gb. You may consider going for 16 to 24Gb of RAM if you have a LOT of custom hairs. «It may have been made by EA» ? A lot of those hairs and outfits are several notches above what EA make, quality wise. Build mode things... Another place where you can get gigs of stuff without even realizing it. Make sure that you have the latest version of UI Cheats Extension. The one from Mod the Sims is an older, legacy, version that is NOT compatible with the current game and WILL totally disable the display of the milestones, and can cause some other problems. You need version 1.35.1 or later.
I'm lucky enough to have a friend who has almost every pack so I just have downloaded them all at separate times (because I don't have a NASA grade computer) and I know which ones I actually use and like
I love realistic mods but you're right about most of them not actually being real. Sim: Gets a great interest rate! Me: ...... Sim: Gets Universal Healthcare and easily manages chronic health conditions! American Me: ........ Sim: Has more best friends! Introverted Me: .........
Emotions could be fixed so easily imo...like, my sims always have TONS of moodlets & it almost seems random which one will actually overtake them & display outwardly. I would suggest that in order to go from "Fine" to "Happy", you need a certain number of moodlets (say like..5 weak ones or 3 strong ones) Same concept for each emotion. But you won't switch from "Fine" with just 1 moodlet. It's too easy..
I'm not a new player but still newish to mods, returning to the sims after a couple years not playing so wanting updates! Also forgot the sites outside sims resource and nexus. I love the sims with all the CC you can get its basically like a massive free update! Only thing that annoys me about CAS content is the major lack of male things. I filter male and every page is mostly female. like what?
Glad you noted that though. I wanna learn how to make CC, I would genuinely only to male selection. though that said there are allot of things for female sims that I can't find so there might be some
2:19 my brand new gaming desktop is also slow as crap. I promise its barely better than an old computer. redditors said this is normal tho so hopefully it doesn't last forever
The CAS custom content pack, is anyone else getting issues with it not actually showing up in the game?? Idk if it’s outdated or what, but it’s got me stressin.. 😭
I can't play without better build (and tool also). Satch, is there any mod to make Sims leave a conversation, without using mcc? My game runs smother without it, but I really miss that feature
Betterbuildbuy question, I downloaded it but when I click on something like lights, it puts all of the debug in with it, so I can’t sort through easily? User error?
unfortunately none of these mods works for me! :( UI cheats makes everything disappear from emotions to needs and everything I cannot even exit the game and the legacy version doesn't work :( I don't know what to do is there anybody who can help me to fix my problems :(
I can't find where to actually download Lifetime Aspirations. Do I have to become a Patron? Cos I'm not doing that lol. EDIT: Nvm the zip file was at the very very bottom of the post, underneath the wall of text about what the mod does, etc. I feel like anyone offering a mod should make the download button really obvious.
Bugs that EA haven't bothered to fix themselves 🤸♀️😂 love you Satch

Thank you!! I don't even know how I didn't know half of these mods existed.
The UI cheats and the banking mod are going straight into my game!
to be totally honest - i like this new version of Satch -
He's finally in his good guy arc 😂😂😂😂❤
What was his super villain arc 😳

Thanks this pretty cool since sims just became free on epic games and theres alot of newbies including me
UI Cheats, MCCC, Slice of Life is very useful mods i use
started playing with mccc and bbb awhile back, never going base game again

Have some personality please is also a good mod!
another good mod is wicked whims! :D
"I can also make her wet herself if I wanted to be a bitch" I have NEVER LAUGHED so hard!!

With the cc will i need to do anything else or after I download it will I be able to use it in my game?

Brother, do you have a video explaining how to download mods
Betterbuildbuy question, I downloaded it but when I click on something like lights, it puts all of the debug in with it, so I can’t sort through easily? User error?
There's an option to hide debug stuff in the drop-down menu on the right (beneath the options to filter by packs)
I have the BBB mod but I can't figure out how to do the more columns.
Do the UI Cheats mod conflict with Mccc?
I know from experience that it doesn't, but I don't use MCCC anymore. In general, it's a rarity if MC Command Center conflicts with a mod.
The mods eyes are scary
unfortunately none of these mods works for me! :( UI cheats makes everything disappear from emotions to needs and everything I cannot even exit the game and the legacy version doesn't work :( I don't know what to do is there anybody who can help me to fix my problems :(
how do you get you edit the sims to extremes? like make eye eyes pop out of their sockets or have a huge booty???
And where can I get the UI Mod? CruseForge?

whys the green shirt glitchin
Where’s the link thooo idk where to find stuff
