So everyone loves this mod where the artwork of sims is more high def and realistic frankly I think it's ugly anyone else not a fan? I feel with how popular it is people seeing the actual art of Sims is a shock...

I know what you're talking about. I installed it, thinking it was going to be amazing. I didn't really care for the grass. Some of the things did look really nice and pretty, but I just didn't like the appearance of it. I removed it after like an hour. Plus, if you want to add a lot to the gallery, it would come up as custom content. I didn't like that either haha. But if some people like it, that's cool. It wasn't my cup of tea though :)

I'm not sure what that mod is either, I would probably love it tho! I don't care for the painted on cartoony look of TS4, never have.For years, I only used alpha CC hair, clothes, objects,and walls. I had default texture replacements for grass, rocks, water, trees, and streets. I also used reshade to tone down TS4's bright colors and make them a little more muted in tones because TS4 is extremely bright colored, it was just way too intense for me. I'm a neutral pallet type person in RL, never cared for bright colors at all.Now a days, I just go with maxis match stuff if I have CC in my game. Not because I love it or prefer it, it's just less jarring when I remove my mods folder after patches and pack installations.

don't know what this mod supposedly is but i really love ts4 artstyle so I would not change it (kind of reminds me of ts2 but improved and i love that)alpha cc... i just feel like looks too much like trashy phone story games lmaosome people do use it in cool ways so it matches but mostly I'm just not a fan(also most often its not even realistic looking but different type of unrealistic)

I use a lot of alpha cc, but I don't try either to match it to Maxis original art style or to make everything ultra-realistic, because that would frankly be self-defeating. It's part of my gameplay, one might say, to define and cultivate my own personal balance in art styles, because I don't like one extreme or the other.I'm still curious about this mysterious "realism mod" that everyone supposedly loves, though. :/

Some pictures would be nice for those of us that haven’t seen it. Personally I love the cartoony graphic style so I doubt it would interest me.

The only ones I can think of are Reshade and the HQ mod. I am pretty familiar with Alpha cc which can give your sims and environment a realistic look but the mod you described I have no idea what it could be.

ETA: K-Hippie also has a texture pack for the worlds. If you use alpha it looks great.

I don't use alpha CC but I do use K-Hippie's mod. It's not completely jarring to be honest. I actually don't use any CC aside from that and a loading screen.
