ive been working on this collection for some time,every one of these are bug fixes(i recommend to install all of them!)
makes the game more balanced and fun
Personally, I wouldn't download someone else's collection of mods unless it was a modder organizing their own mods into a single download for players that want all of their mods on their site (like Pescado does with his director's cut). And I think it's reckless to offer this to people.
Here's why:
1. It's dangerous to have mods in place that you do not know what they are and what they are for. This can mean that you have no clue what could be causing a problem in game if you download another mod that includes a file that messes with a mod you have already.
2. If an issue does come up or if a player has a question about a mod, they face an uphill battle trying to find out who that mod was made by and where they are set up for supporting the mod of or if it's an "as is" mod if the creator has left the community.
3. The modder who created it is unaware of how popular and used their mod is because the Simmer did not download the mod from them
But that's just my opinion.
No, I agree with you. This is why I labelled all my mods and gave the download links from the creators directly. There could potentially be harmful content or files in there, though I doubt it and doubt @k_reeser1 meant any harm in uploading it.
With that said, what you said about conflicting mods is important. If you don't know where your mods come from or what they do, it would be very easy to download conflicting mods on accident.
And honestly, mods are meant to be individualistic. Whilst some are basically essential, others vary depending on playstyle. Some mods that work for me may not work for other players.
Uploading them to a MEGA like @k_reeser1 did also doesn't credit the original creators.
