CC items

Hi so, on PC I have some mods and all fine, however I've never dabbled with CC, where's everyone's go to place? I think I tried looking on cursedforge and the Sims resources but all I can find is like in depth CaS items like lashes, nails, I just wanted something like a new style dishwasher or some furniture

And lastly am I right on presuming if I do download any, they get put in the mods folder?

  • Hello, 

    I have been dabbling with custom content on and off over the course of time since I have been playing Sims 4. I cannot count how many times I would get a folder all set up with all my favs. I would ensure to keep my folder size down as to not bog down the game's loading time and giving the game all that much more .package/access files to read. Yet, just as I am all set to go to town in placing them all in my game for keeps, I would read people having some big issues... more so as of late to where they cannot access their games at all, they lost their neighborhoods they reconstructed, Sims are not functioning correctly, custom content and Mods are broken, etc. it appears to be a mess right now. 

    But... there are so many talented creators out there that I am honored to tell you about because they really know what they are doing. 

    First, there is Peacemaker. Not only does he make great content EA didn't think of creating, He has made many "addons" to pre-existing content of many expansion packs. He did a lot of Buildmode addons, Wallpaper addons, and buymode addons (which includes more awesome clutter items that makes sense of the game and are all from the original EA content. He has also "downsized" the majority of all coffee tables to make them more reasonably sized and functional. In some of his new content, he added/included EA content like taking the bonsai tree from the base game and creating actual table-top plants out of 4 of the designing styles.

    Sixam CC also has some great EA clutter and addons too and is now getting some of his content used in our games like the latest Nursery Kit! 

    Another one of my favorites is Max20. It fits right in with the style of our games and He made this gorgeous pool waterfall that I would LOVE to see introduced as free content in our games from EA.

    If you love clutter and want to stay true to EA, Brazenlotus has meticulously extracted fabulous stuff from each pack to be used separately and on surfaces... not to mention Pillows from various sofas/seating to be used on other comfort surfaces and the file size are really small so you can really add a lot for so little room.

    For great EA addon plants many of us love these: 

    Ravasheen has transplanted various EA plants and put them into different EA pots/vases for a nice variant. 

    Simsi45 at Mod The Sims 4 has also done the same and recolored the 3 debug hanging plants and made them easier to hang instead of using cheats. 

    Awingedllama on tumbler has separated all the blooming room plants from the kit to be used on surfaces and has a cool leaf wall décor too.

    If you love EA Clutter Xetto at Mod the Sims 4  extracted a ton of content and unleashed grouped plants, extracted decorations from bookshelves, etc. turned them into tabletop décor you can place anywhere. 

    For really cute and adorable EA addons and new content you may love Joyce's Place

    For new content and ideas, the following also offers some top quality creations:

    House of Harlix

    Piersims

    Tuds 

    Littledica

    plumbobteasociety on tumbler is a collaboration of creators who made a really amazing Cottage Garden Kit and the Rustic Romance Stuff Kit very worthy of checking out. You can either handpick the items you want or download the whole set as their sets are jampacked. 

    All of these creators I have play-tested in my games and LOVED. Just extract the files and place them all in your Mods folder. You can make separate folders inside the Mods folder for making it easier to find certain items you have downloaded. Some like to make them for each creator or each set creation they made. Because I am an avid EA addons fan, I make folders for each pack. 

    Hope these will be of help to you. Happy Simming!

    @cbarber89 Also on Lili's Palace, you will find amazing vintage/Folklore sets. One of my favorites is called "Folklore Set Off the Grid Living."

    @wasikm007 Many thanks for your detailed response, I'll certainly take a look over they're creations, is there any one site these creations are all on or are they scattered around websites? The only thing I've never been able to grasp the idea of is where to reliably download these from 🙂

    @cbarber89When I found them, they have their own site from each other, which took me years to discover all the creators I found, but these amazing creators I would trust overall.

    Thankfully there is some good news. The majority are found on Curseforge! Just go to the top of their page and where it reads "Search for Sims 4 Mods" Type in their names. Then you will see a list of creations that match that description. Next to the sets created by the artist you want, you will find they show the names of the artist. Just click on the artist and their page of creations will come up. You will want to check them often as they are always coming up with new things to download.

    As for the rest, I know you will easily find these in a google search or any platform you use. Just type in their names or the names of the packs they made of which some were mentioned and you should have an easy time of finding them. I tried to include the links for each of them, but they are considered spam on here, so I was forced to delete them.

    Here is example pics just incase.

    @wasikm007 Oh perfect, thank you so much I'll have fun finding the ones you recommended and maybe some others along the way :D
    Can't wait to finish my shift even more now so I can go hunting for new things 🙂 as you mentioned some are broken at the moment but I'm sure I can figure out what does and doesn't work and fix it 🙂
