    If your game can run the game then the issue isn't that it can't handle the Mods, it's that something is conflicting. You should try one Mod at a time, not just add a whole load in one go. 

    This really isn't the place for Mod help, you should be posting on the NRaas site as that is where you downloaded the mods from.

    Good luck 🙂

Ok, so you don't actually want to make Mods you just want to add them to your game? Please can you clarify.

If your game is crashing when you add Mods that indicates that the Mod is not compatible with the game. Can you list the NRaas Mods you are trying to use?

i'm just adding them to my game. i tried with these base mods as listed on the nraas website.

Master Controller
Master Controller Cheats
DebugEnabler
Register
Traffic
Saver
Base Module for Story Progression

this was about 6 months ago. i used their website how to as well as youtube videos for visual reference and confirmation that it was done correctly. wen that was done i started the game and it crashed while loading. i reset my acer aspire to factory setting and reinstalled my games. when that was done i tried again and it happened a second time. that's when i started looking into it from a more fundamental approach. there were websites that listed certain specifications for computers that can handle running a game with mods downloaded into it. i've been trying to get an expert to assist but i don't know anyone who mods the sims personally and finding anyone who mods is easy but getting an honest opinion is proving rather difficult. i load my game from an sd card wen i use my acer but that's because i need to get my main laptop repaired. i wonder if that has anything to do with this. if you mod the sims or can recommend someone for insight. i just want to know what specific type of computer are people using to mod their game with and how that seems to work out for them so i can go back to the websites and figure out where it is that i'm going wrong.

    thank you soooo much! i went back and did everything from the beginning and..............IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!! it looks like i may have done something unnecessarily that screwed me over and when i looked at this youtube video first, everything else just clicked! i had no real need for the nraas website instructions at all! i put the link down below cuz she is amazing! i can't believe i was going to get a super computer.....they were so expensive. both of you have saved me another 5 years of on and off battling this and time spent and money burned and i can never possible thank you enough.
