  • @Mrskeisha06There are lots of places. A good place to start is Mod The Sims. You'll have to google it since we can't post links here.

    Nexus Mods has a few. You can also google creators like LittleMsSam. The Sims Resource has a LOT of CC, but it's riddled with ads. I wouldn't recommend it.

  • I'd also recommend this:

    Maxismatch CC World  (google it)

    Also, it would help if you'd tell us what kind of mods you're looking for, like if you want more options for clothes, hair and buildable objects, more realistic looking stuffm etc.

    @Mrskeisha06, Mods and CC can be a lot of fun 🥳 , but they can cause problems in your game 😞 especially after the game gets an update. If you do use Mod/CC be sure to get the latest version updated to work with any patch that EA releases for the game.  It is also important to do some regular maintenance such as deleting the localthumbcache.package file in the game folder.  

    Steps to troubleshoot if you have CC/Mods in your game and a problem occurs is to do the following:

    1) Move the Mods Folder to your desktop

    2) Delete localthumbcache.package file in the game folder.

    3) Fix you game in Origin by logging in and go to Library, then right-click on The Sims 4 and choose the "Repair Game" option from the list.  Wait until Origin finishes repairing all your packs and not just the base game.

    4) Now, when you turn on your game again, it will create a new mods folder that will be empty.  Check to see if your game is now working without mods/CC.

    5) Now you can try adding back items from your Mods folder one at a time checking your game each time to see which item is causing your game to not work properly.  If you have a lot of items, you can try the 50/50 Method. 

    The CC creators will usually update the CC items and Mods after these updates, so when you find out which one is the culprit, you can get the updated version from whoever made that item of CC in the first place.  You should try these steps anytime you have problems in your game to rule out CC/Mods problems.  It is the responsibility of the Mods/CC creators to update their items anytime EA releases a patch/update, and it is the responsibility of the people who use Mods/CC to make sure they are using the most recent version. 🙂

    Hopefully, by doing these steps you can stay on top of any Mods or CC issues in your game! 😇🙌
    Happy Simming! 🥳
