Mods like Error trap, Overwatch, Master control, Traveler and Traffic (all from Nraas) are basically essential to play this game. Before having them, I was spending more time trying to fix bugs and glitches than playing the game. Dont know about the supposed « great looks » of the moderators but I can tell you that the quality of their mods is very high and they are very helpful.
Other things you should know is to turn off memories, always use « save as » (not save and quit) and keep backup saves, dont add tourist sims to your household, always fully quit the game if moving between saves (dont go to main menu), dont use cheats to delete sims, get a save cleaner and have fun exploring this game !
