99 mods on the wall

So I just did a quick count, and I have 99 mods in my mods folder. Not counting the little CC I have (which is just body hair/skin overlay and some paintings I did...ok, many paintings....). Big gameplay mods, and small tunings and fixes. 65 from LMS and Bienchen alone! And that's only what is NOT covered by MCCC, NPCC and UIcheats!

Every time there's a patch, I go update those mods, maybe get rid of a few y'know? And what happens? I get more! Because bugs, annoyances and quality-of-life. I tried vanilla, lasted a week. I was afraid I'd lose the rest of my hair and my sanity.

I'm Kat, and I'm a Modaholic! Please tell me I'm not alone!

  • I had Mods for Sims 3 but this time I'm not playing with Mods at all and wonder if the ongoing problems those who use them have is due to the changes already made in their games by CC and mods even though they have been removed for Patches etc.

    For instance the Guru's said lately that new Save games wouldn't have some problems mentioned but old ones took time to get over those problems.

    I have played both ways in the sims 4, either way there are bugs and some of my mods that I have helped with some of the bugs and Sims team have not yet fixed

    Mods are necessary for TS3, because the game was left hanging the way it was. I would never ever play it if it wasn't for Nraas. With Error trap, Master controller and more, I'm having a blast in TS3 again lately :)

    As for TS4, to me mods are necessary as well. I'm bothered by less bugs with mods than without (not to mention all the annoying stuff that goes on). I've always tested bugs without mods, for AHQ reports etc, I'm just not going to anymore. There are too many for me to keep tabs on, and I don't have the health and energy to keep it up. Its too much hassle to constantly remove/add mods folder for every little thing I want to test. And yeah, I'm guessing my old saves still have issues that were fixed, because the fixes weren't retroactive. Not sure what to do with those, some I haven't played in a year or two.

    And wow, @EnkiSchmidt that's a LOT o'mods! :D I'm guessing the SCAM config file is the tuning in MCCC? Or does it come as a separate mod too? My tuner.cfg is at 280'ish lines right now :D

    Yes, SCAM is the still working predecessor of Mc Tuning. At one point it got integrated into MCCC. Tbh I have no idea what the differences are, I just didn't fancy disabling everything again. Do you by chance know if I can just copy over SCAM cfg's contents into Mc Tuner's?
  • I think so. I mean, I know you can even use someone elses tuner.cfg, or copy parts of it to your own. I think they are the same, with the interaction ID, followed by the name. You'd probably have to use MCCC tuner to disable one action, to create the cfg file first. Then copy from the SCAM one.

    SCAM is the same as the Tuner, as far as I know. I've never used it so don't know if there are any differences.
