This is what Sims 4 is lacking

That's really good to know! I don't use too many mods at once actually, to avoid incompatibility. My main mods are usually just MCC and UI Cheats and sometimes a tuning mod for something specific that bothers me (like phone use!) But if it works with MCC then I'll totally try it out. SoL is another one I need to throw in there some time.

Slice of Life is fun. I need to check out Meaningful stories too. I heard good things with it. Yeah the cell phone and constant texting bothers me too. I would love an in-game option for that too.

Haha! I just had my sim try to call someone in sims 2. You can't call someone who doesn't own a phone. I love it and I missed that!

I miss that too! I really feel that owning phones should be completely optional like it was in Sims 2. I cannot stand the constant texts from random Sims and townies in Sims 4 that my Sims aren't even friends with. If using the "silence" feature actually turned the phone off, that would be awesome. But it doesn't seem to do anything at all.

I was thinking about the cellphone earlier today and was just like...why did they think everyone would love to have this without any option to not have it? Honestly one of the most annoying aspects of TS4 for me.

We need a turn off option for cellphones & have an olden days telephone & newspaper.

Holy moly, you guys. The Meaningful Stories mod is fracking amazing! :o

Echo de menos la cabeza flotante en la interfaz SIMS 4 La cabeza flotante en la interfaz ha estado en las 3 generaciones que la extraño, es como una cosa icónica de la marca de sims. Extraño esto en los Sims 4: '(

SaveState - DLC has furries. You can create a dog, fox, wolf, cheetah, tiger. There's also a neon green for an alien furry. They have dog, cat or curled tails, rounded, folded or pointed ears. You can choose between hind paws or the Maxis feet and shoes. You can change the length and width of the muzzle and the size of the nose. There's an extra skin pack for more colors to use with version 2. They will keep their shape in the shower and bath. They will not change to normal Sims like a werewolf.

You would click on the head, then choose in the skin details for the head, ears, tail, hind paws. You must use SaveState's eyes for version 1. You can use the Maxis hair or crest. The long pants and some skirts can mess up the hind paws.

Why on Earth wouldn't they have made sure most of this was carried forward into newer editions? My sims seem dumb - especially not able to step over things or go around a corner.

Yes TS2 just had so much life to it. Sims didn't have emotions but all these little details gave them so much more personality. For example going to restaurant was so much more fleshed out experience. TS4 advertises always you can tell your story but in reality you really can't. You can't skip on a bill or propose in dinner table. There is no miss Crumblebottom or stuff like that. It feels like other sims doesn't react to your sim unless you talk to them. In TS2 NPC etc were always reacting to everything.

I'd say Sims in Sims 2 actually had emotions unlike Sims 4 we did not need a huge icon to tell us as their behavior and reactions to situtations such as anger when cheated on let us know and they did not instantly forget and return to a smile seconds later.

I liked Sims 2 very much, it seems to me that later series had much poorer gameplay. In Sims 2, particular add-ons seemed to play best together. My beloved was Own Business. Neither 3 or 4 unfortunately allow you to run so many different activities.
I am also a builder type, in 4 I miss, for example, placing plots in any places and such trifles that I am waiting for and I hope that soon they will be, for example, designing ceilings or building stairs at an angle.
