Do you use modded traits, aspirations and careers?

I don't use custom traits, aspirations or careers. Those are very prone to breaking with every patch and some modders are not in too big of a hurry to update them.

I use about 200 other type mods, so I know all about waiting for modders to update their mods before I can use them after an update, but if I use a trait or career and it breaks and that modder decides they don't want to update the career or trait anymore, I run the risk of completely messing up my save and/or sim.

It's just not something I feel the risk is worth, to me.

I feel exactly the same. I don't use mods that can ruin a save or sim when they are no longer updated.

I have used custom made careers both from Neia and Midnite but I am taking a break from them now as they tend to break everytime a new pack is added into the mix and even by patches. I will probably add them again later on. I am just afraid to screw up my saved game with them.

I've used a mod to make teen careers available to all and make the social media career available to teens. I personally don't use custom traits case it loads without them can't stand having yo replace stuff (the reason I use gameplay mods and not cc)

there's plenty newer ones too. Check modthesims.

Quite a few are not updated, usually the ones I really like lol, I have checked them out. I have a few favoured to try when I have a chance to play.

Hi!
Yes I love midnittech's careers!
Kawaii Stacie also has some really great traits: https://www.kawaiistaciemods.com/downloads/traits-bundle-1
As well as some custom event careers as well!

I have seen Kawaii Stacie, but so far I am having trouble with her download site with the adfly. I am going to try again for her stuff.

@ChelleJo, I understand that sentiment. It seems many of the creator of the traits, aspirations and careers stop updating :( I wonder how hard it would be to update them myself. Not that I have ever tried modding

I used to have a mod that did the opposite of adding new traits: Removing existing ones. Back then many simmers didn't want the Bro trait in their game and I had a problem with Evil (true evil should be something dangerous and rare, but with just a small pool of traits the game chose evil far too often).

Too bad the creator retired and the mod never got updated.

Wouldn't play the game without it

No I haven't. I don't tend to use CC or mods until a game is through being developed - then I will check them out for things I want that's not in the finished game.

Thanks for all the input. I might wait and not try them. I currently have added something that caused an Exception Error so will have to check each mod again. I just thought they might give a little more personality to my sims. Maybe if I knew how to fix them myself it wouldn't be so bad.
