Different mods for different save files?

Is there any way to put different mods and different cc for each save file?
I'd like to do one save file just for historic gameplay, use the mod that cleans up all the backgrounds so no modern buildings etc are there, the chicken coop, castles and everything.
But I still want to keep the modern stuff in my normal save file and I don't want any modern sims walking around in the historic world and vice versa.

  • Only way to do it is switch out the Mods folder each gameplay, keep them stored separately in a safe spot until you need it
  • No. The only thing you can do is make another mods folder and set it aside somewhere so if you want to switch mods, you can. I usually have a folder on my desktop for different mods to keep track of them when not in my mod folder (usually clothing, hair and makeup) and switch them out depending on the game I am playing. Taking them out won't mess up your game as long as you don't save the game without the mods; but since you can pick what save (and I think you can name each save?) you want to start up, it things so much easier. You should probably make sure you have backups just in case.
  • Actually there is a way to keep them separate. UrbanSims on Youtube has a tutorial how she organizes her game saves. You can watch it here. I did this and all of my saves are separate from each other. Remembering to remove the extension is the hardest part.
