Your 5 most essential mods besides MCC/UI Cheats and Meaningful stories

without counting mccc & UI cheats:
1 - T.O.O.L: very useful!
2 - height slider: i'd LOVE a height slider on the sims
3 - no random townies: like NPCC but updated
4 - more CAS columns: so i don't waste more time on cas lol
5 - sim teleporter/poseplayer: for taking screenshots
also, two mods i can't name o:)

My five are
1. No sun in forgotten hollow
2. Live in business
3. Online learning system
4. Bake cupcake machine items in oven
5. Invite all to party

Just like you, my number one essential mod is Sim Spawn Overhaul by Lotharihoe. I can't play without it! Others favorites are: More Columns in CAS, Old School CAS Room by Little Dica, Ring Up Customers at Register (cLineLy), Required Degree for Promotions by Zero and Don't Turn my Sims Into Spellcasters by Zero.

I don't really play with mods cause like i don't wanna break my long save again when something stops working and glitches everything in generation ???

and im too lazy with my mod management to escape that fate

but here a list of what I would add if i had the courage

1. slow dancing mod
2. slow dancing mod
3. slow dancing mod
4. slow dancing mod
5. I guess t.o.o.l seems kinda cool perhaps

I don't have mcc and ui mods.

1. have some personality please - no idle chatter, conversations are autonomous
2. control autonomy - only to disable autonomous memory erase for my aliens
3. some cc

1. Slice of Life
2. Granny’s cookbook
3. SimsDa dating mod
4. “BD” aka A mod that can’t be mentioned here by name
5. Life’s Tragedies

Mods are very necessary for me. I let my sims live semi realistic tortured lives. They live, they die, they divorce, they get kidnapped, they develop bad habits. Definitely keeps my game interesting.

Slice of Life
Slow Dancing
More CAS columns
Better Babies and Toddlers
Extracted Face Presets
Hard to choose because my game is heavily modded

1. Playable pets mod (I love that I can direct my pets to interact with sims, other pets, and the environment!)
2. Pose player/teleporter (Really, the teleporter is amazing. You can use it to summon any sim to wherever you want them to be standing, super convenient and fast when you want to interact with a sim not in your household)
3. T.O.O.L (awesome for editing lots in the off grid area)
4. Invisible bassinet mod (I love using CC cribs and being able to move my babies from crib to crib so they can be in different parts of the house)

Eh, can't think of a 5th one, so those ones are really my top choices that I don't like playing without. MCCC is forever my favorite mod though

This is hard to choose!

1) Move, Sort & Hide Interactions https://modthesims.info/download.php?t=652181
2) Control Any Sim https://modthesims.info/download.php?t=634595
3) Auto Shorter Teens https://modthesims.info/download.php?t=642260
4) Social Activities https://littlemssam.tumblr.com/post/175408773833/social-activities-visit-friends-family-and
5) Zero's Occult mods https://withoutweight.wixsite.com/zerocomics/zero-sims4mods

It's impossible for me to choose which of Zero's mods is the best one to me... I really tried too lol. If I MUST, maybe Vampire Witches. It's a very hard decision!

I could also add just all bug fixes for these. I really couldn't play without those. :#

- More columns in CAS
- Selectable Pets
- Show/Search Sims Info
- No ask for advice parenthood (this unlocks the interaction to be player directed)
- Removed plumbob for occults (I find them discriminating, wish there was a mod that gives occults normal grave markers, too)
