Clean up your cc folks.

I just purged all of my CC yesterday, LOL. I was like "it's time for a change".

I get that. I was super close to doing that but there were a couple pieces that are central to a few of my sims.
I cut down it down to 7Gigs of cc and the game runs sooooo much better.
That and choosing outfits and hair is so much more organized and easy to sort through.

Sounds terrible. I haven't really had to do this since I remove whatever I don't deem necessary right away. I find that staying on top of things saves a lot of hassle and stress in the long run.

I'm way too obsessive over my CC organisation. Tho, come patch, my plan is "Batch fix what'll batch fix, and pitch the rest"

I'm very picky when it comes to CC. And I have everything organized from hats and hair down to socks and shoes. The only things that aren't organized are build mode objects and I don't have too many of those.

My problem is downloading to much makeup CC!!!!

I finally bought Sims 4 base game recently in Black Friday sales. I want to get started with CC but not sure where to start with it all!
What's your favourite CC that you've got/kept?

I suggest the one that lowers bills if you want to be a painter and hang anything thats worth anything. But I also picked up one that changed the high speed internet buff to happy instead of energized, and another that made it so my sims stopped putting down instruments instead of keeping them in their inventory. Most recently I got one that prevented sims from dying to heat and cold until EA can fix a lot of the bugs that comes with it, like dying from drinking 3 cups of coffee.

Unless CC is only stuff like more clothes etc~ I've refrained myself from stuff like that.

I think I would consider those mods rather than CC, but I'm no expert (since I have none of either!). The one for the fast internet actually sounds really good, the energised trait mostly just confuses me - I'm assuming it's only really good for getting your sims to exercise.

HAH! Sims can die from 3 cups of coffee? Weak! That's my personal daily minimum :lol:


I think the come of the CC I would first want to get might be more outdoor furniture. My house-building skills are at the high-end of average (though maybe that's generous, looking forward to being able to post photos so everyone can rip me to shre... I mean, suggest improvements). I'm working more on landscaping and I feel capped with what I can create using base-game furniture.

Right, theres a lot of weird bugs about it, but it all concerns the Seasons Hot/Cold system. Its very simple, too simple really. Basically you have 5 stages of temperature. It goes like this...

Freezing, Cold, Neutral, Hot, Heat Stroke

Something like being outside in summer or winter counts as one point toward hot/cold. Drinking a warm cup of coffee or tea is a point toward hot. Running through sprinklers is a point toward cold. Wearing a bathing suit or summer clothes is a point toward cold. Stuff like that. Meaning you can go outside on a hot day in your swim suit after drinking a cold drink, then run through the sprinklers, and start freezing to death.

IMO, there should be more states. Like warm, hot, really hot, etc, before you get to the ABOUT TO DIE levels of heat. And you can die, especially since Sims aren't auto programmed to fix their temperature needs and its not very clear about what does what. My own story; My sim came in from outside during winter, wearing winter clothes. Turned up the heater, made a pot of tea. Couldnt put the tea into the fridge so I poured a cup, put the cup in the fridge. Poured a second cup, put it in the fridge, drank the third and final cup. Then I was burning to death according to the +99 uncomfortable moodlet. Tried taking a bath, nope. Took a shower, nope. Googled it, figured out I had to drink a glass of water. It worked, tho the moodlet doesnt mention anything about a glass of water.

I can see why people would be complaining about having TPK's caused by it. If you get seasons, I suggest just turning off the seasons game option for "Enable Temperature Effects on Sims."

And uh, sorry for derailing the convo away from custom content. You asked tho and I think it's really important information to share until EA fixes it. (its been broke since Seasons first released) Sorry again~ *tips hat* Knowledge is power

Edit: weird, now I can see it all... something with the brackets apparently.
