How big is the community that uses mods and cc?

I've tried both mods and cc in the passed but, and i've said this before, I hate the way cc makes the sims look. I also find mods, though fun, more trouble than they are worth. I'm too lazy to keep track after every patch/pack which ones need to be updated or not. They also tend to do weird things to my game.

My game is mostly vanilla, but I just HAVE to have that risky woohoo!

I use both. On every sims game since the first one I used mods and CC.

For me I needed CC to add more colors for my fantasy Sims and elf ears. Outside of that one of the first things I remember looking for was new underwear because lets face it for both men and women they are lacking in this game both in design and variety.

As for mods, mine all fix bugs EA still hasn't addressed and removes the blue lens from the game.

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.

OH wow! Super nice options. Where do you find your mods, if i can ask?

Homework Overhaul, Simcity Loans and Don't eat where you poop were Mod The Sims:

Social Activities is from LittleMsSams tumblr: https://littlemssam.tumblr.com/post/175435360448/mod-overview-list

and Mcc I got from the Deaderpool's personal site: https://deaderpool-mccc.com/#/

I personally cannot use TheSimsResource for mods. The ads they have try to change my pcs settings to use other search engines and enable random popups, so if you're new to mods I would recommend staying away from it.

I use a lot of mods and cc, but I constantly try to minimise their amount. Especially mods because I hate waiting for all of them to get fixed whenever TS4 gets updated. For example, yesterday I removed 6 mods and moved 6 more to my desktop in case i'll need them in the future. To maintain CC I delete through S4Studio all the clothing and furniture swatches I know I'll never use. That helps the performance. And yet it's still a mess and I really hate that I got so addicted to using them.

I use both and I’m not going back. It is time consuming having to go through everything when there’s a new bug update, but I don’t mind. Plus I’m really into hair, clothes/fashion, and makeup so that added variety makes things better for me.

Soooo... My game isn't vanilla anymore :blush: I've installed this Mccc that everyone talks about and let me tell you! Wow! It really changed my game! It does so many things!
Now... I've saw something that really intrigued me... The option humanize all vampires... Will I be able to get rid of all vampires in the game? I mean if I do it regularly, like once a sim's week? I have the Pack disabled and I want so much the CAS and bb items and also the amazing world...

I have tried a couple of mods and liked them but I also enjoy my game vanilla and don't want to go through the hassle of updating mods.

I would of gave up on the sims 4 if not for mods/cc
