Well, the amount of time I spend "paused" just increased exponentially, and I have to fight the urge to make every shot so tightly framed it gives you claustrophobia just looking at it,

Welcome to the tab mode! :agree:, It really is forcing us to make a perfect picture for our story, I mean everytime, I'm like :frowning: "Let take a different angle" or "Let me unpause and pause again hoping the eye is fully open" and more other bizarre things I've done with it!

Ba haha ha! I was thinking the same thing. enkeli63 started a nice little support group in here. (too bad she has a demanding RL job or she'd be able to be here more!) I go over onto the General Discussions forum every once in a while, but I usually ended up dismayed over, and embarrassed for, and angry about all the vitriolic, petulant mewling and ill-considered nastiness, the pettiness and smug short-sightedness, the intellectual torpor ... See? I'm getting ticked off now and I'm just thinking about it!

Omg I know right hahah. I tend to stay away from the general discussion thread because of the drama :/

Well, I had to be on that side for some point (to post link, image, and stuff) :confounded: and I have to follow "their" rules for the likes. Well that was a dark past :disappointed_relieved:, I'm glad it's over, I'm never going back anymore :fearful:

Well, I have a general question, do you use game mods for your story? and if you do what mod is it?

For me I use:
Autonomus Repair
No Autonomous mourning
Emotional overcharge
and No Censor/smaller censor,

Just a no censor mod. It's not a prurient thing (OK, maybe a little. lol!); I just find that big block of blur aesthetically distasteful and kinda insulting somehow.

Show some respect to the no censor mod, I only used it several time only for some capturing some kind of stuff, like crying in shower (the animation is good, but it's blocked by blur so, yeah.

for mods I use:
-Build and Buy mode unlocker (Unlocks carreer/event rewards. I love having more options when in build mode)
-Buyable Mailboxes
-No Highlight (the white highlight always gets in the way of my pictures)
-Teen careers for all
-Shrimrod Improved Lighting
-Inteen (So I can have Teen+YA romances)
-NoGenealogicide (It supposedly fixes the bug where the game 'purges' and deletes townies/ghosts)

I used some of those mods in my non legacy play. I might have been overthinking which mod is good for my legacy that is not against the rule. But some of that mod seem to be legacy legal.

I play with a lot of mods because I find that they make the gaming experience so much richer. I took out some of the way more "cheaty" mods for my current legacies (no school goals, no relationships needed for work, and 1-day pregnancies) but other than that I have:
- Work/Study Hard is 2.5x more effective ('work/study hard' does basically nothing without the mod which I find pointless)
- Coffee gives more energy (it wasn't worth the wait for the sim to brew and drink it for the effects it had originally)
- Simocide (so I can kill Sims on demand haha. Haven't used it yet)
- Slower time (so it doesn't take 1 hour for the sim to pee hahah)
- Improved Death Reactions
- Traumatic Divorce for Children (can't wait to test this one, hehehe)
- Teen Careers for all
- Sleep All night (I think this is one of my favorite Mods so far)
- Ages Until 70 (modifies Sim aging)
- inteen (for teen & adult romance, also allows teenage pregnancy although I haven't given it a shot yet).

Other than that I have less cheaty mods such as clutter anywhere, move objects on, change outfit on inactive sims, fewer elders, less musical chairs, no fade, fewer stalkbys, superspeed, fogity menu enabler (so I can see Sim menu when they're a work/school)...I think that's it lol

I really love using mods, we're lucky there're many good modders out there.

@Deewraynged and @hirondelle09: You seem to use the inteen, I'm too affraid using that, I know it happened in real life but having adult teen relationship and teen pregnancy is just too real for me, hehe.

I don't use any mods when I play. I'm always afraid they'll crash my game.

I used to say that until I installed one mod and it worked perfectly, and, my mods folder are filled with so much mods.
