How big is the community that uses mods and cc?

Some files I play vanilla but some i have mccc and a foster care mod

update : i switched teams. cc all day :D <3

I only recently bought TS4 and for now I want to get to know this version of the game and what comes with it. If I start using mods/cc I doubt it will be much until TS4 is done.

I've done the mod dance for TS2 & TS3, for every EP & patch. I just can't do it again, specially since TS4 seems to get more patches and stuff is divided up into more packs.

Besides, if I want to play where I control almost everything, I'll load up TS2.

Most of my CC are female haircuts (need moar long hair), MCCC for story progression (as others already said), some custom careers (for variety), a few small mods to adjust minor issues, and one mod I will not name *wink*

I was a vanilla player for the first 3 or 4 years.
Now i mainly have tuning/gameplay mods that make repetitive stuff better.
Nothing that adds new venues or objects much (one adds a "loan packet" item for a banking mod).

I use
1. mccommand (story progression for my townies, freezing physique of fitness sims so they don't get too buff, and speeding up my own story lines)
2. Homework overhaul (skill gain while doing homework)
3. Don't eat where you angry poop (stop prepping food in the bathroom upstairs instead of using the free kitchen counter!)
4. Social activities mod (send sims away for vacation, dates, hanging out, visiting family without having to go with them).
5. SimCity loans (for my middle class families to have essentially mortgages). I love the look of SNBank mod but I'll wait for the estate management for inheritance.

I also want to try one simulation lag on speed 3 and wanted the miscarriage and abortion one for some more random tragedies in my game. I'm looking for more pg ones than Wicked Whims but think Lil Ms Sam has most of what I want just have to try it. I did try the Slice of Life mod but honestly hated the appearence changes (too Ott for me) and only ended up using the drunk and period effects so I removed it.

I was strictly CC free because I hate when their clothes disappear after a patch, but I've relented to install only CC wedding dresses because all the photos were becoming so samey even with the extra dresses from all the packs.

The dresses aren't allowed for random and are removed from the sims outfit sets after the wedding. So I wouldn't consider myself a actual cc user.

Oh and Andrews pose player for better photos.

Yes!! I love cc and mods!

I used to only have CAS custom content and mods but then I recently got into build/buy custom content again. I don't think I could ever be fully vanilla but I wish :(

MCCC, a few adult mods ;) and some cc tattoos. Looking for more tattoos if anyone knows of good creators.

@Jasonschick80 Do you know a cc creator called savagesimbaby? They make some awesome tattoo sets. TSR or Tumblr

I dont but I'll check them out, thank you! :)

I used to play a clean game, but when starting to make films/machinima I dl'ed some clutter and a couple mods. I could not have made my films without the UI cheat that allows me to set a sim's mood/needs. Most of the clutter I have organized in a kind of off-game storage, then I use it for specific scenes. Such as if filming a propper meal, I might copy the subfolder with food and dining stuff before I start the game, and when scene is done I'll delete that mod subfolder. CC that several households will use might stay in the game though :)
