Carl's difficulty mod

Carl is doing a great job!! I've been playing with his mod and it really solves most of my issues! Looking forward for late tonight to try the burglars!!!

Unfortunately, I have no luck with this mod. Tried it yesterday mostly for calories/fitness since there are no other mods for this part of game which are currently working. But after catching several LEs with McCmd from it I had to delete. Also was catching LE's from his gardening tuning for "fertilize all".

I really wish things were modular in this mod. Like I'm not interesting in harder jobs part. I'm using Kuttoe mod for this. And Carl never answered if these mods are compatible. So without ability to select features and with overall complexity of this mod I decided so far to avoid it. Though many tunings/fixes in it sounds very interesting.

I'm about the same. I had it installed for all of 5 minutes before I was forced to remove it. So, unfortunately I have no idea how well the features work. The mod also apparently comes with a massive 75% fps drop. Knocked my FPS down from 60+ to 14. Removed it and I'm back to over 60.

I'd like to ask this very important question but Carl has no Discord and I'm not on his Patreon.

How is this for short, normal, long, and ageing-off lifespan kind of game styles?
I worry that this might not be tailored or suited enough for normal lifespan gameplay, which is how I play, since most players prefer to play long or with aging off.

I love this mod, I have been using it in my game for a few weeks now. I like that I can set it so my sims won’t gain simoleons as easily and also building relationships can be more difficult. It fixes a lot of issues with the game as well. Dine out has never worked so well in my game.

I see CG has the same annoying habit of deliberately hiding his content behind that patreon crap and not releasing it in a timely manner for the public. Not at all surprising.

Anyway, i've been watching it and frankly it doesn't offer enough options in ways that matter and yes, i'd like to see the mod more modular. if the dine out part of the mod actually creates a far better experience than the bugged mess that currently exists that the developers have no inclination to fix or notice, then i'm open to trying it out. there are one or two other things that i've noticed and want to try out separately as well in that mod.

I have been a member of his forum/guides since 2009 and this guy is very smart. I downloaded his mods, as many as I could. I have never used Patreon, mostly just donated to my favorite sites, but with his mods I figured I could spring for $5/month. I know I won't be sorry. I took my sim out to eat and everything went like it was supposed to! I'm now in the process of planting gardens for my sims that the stupid devs ruined in Seasons release...even the mod Twisted Mex didn't work. Now my sims can have the huge gardens again thanks to Carl. I don't think $5 is too much to fix some of the worst bugs in the game. <3

Ok, here's a question : the mod looks really interesting, but does anyone know where you can actually download it? I've found Carl's Patreon, and it says patrons get the early access version with the newest features, but I don't mind waiting a little longer and, quite frankly, spending over 80$ a year (I'm not American) for a mod seems excessive. I get that it's a lot of work for the creator, but I just can't justify it in my own gaming budget.

tldr ; I've failed to find the non-early access version. Where is it?

Waaaaaaaaay down at the bottom before the comment section, you'll find the package and script files. You need both. https://www.patreon.com/posts/carls-sims-4-mod-58183239

I was initially excited about the harder income changes (the original idea he started with) because I couldn't find a mod that did that with ALL incomes including crafting sales etc., which is what I understand his is suppose to be. But is all this other stuff, dining, garden, social etc. all still one big mod rather than separate ones? I don't care about that other stuff at all. Although I do miss the burglar..

Does anyone know of a mod that just lowers income, and money earned on craft sales (painting, fishing, gardening, collectables etc etc..)? Preferably one mod that covers all forms of earning money in game. Sigh, my dream mod...
