How much is too much?

Just some questions. How much is too much CC? I have 526 items in my Mods folder which consist of mostly objects and a few game mods. Is this excessive or not? How much do you have in your Mods folder? Just wondering.

  • I have quite a lot of mods and cc even tho I'm on a laptop. I love mods and cc and I'm glad this game can support them coz ts3 couldn't handle even one object of cc
  • I'm a heavy CC user. I have 6.60GB of CC, which comes up to 6, 265 files. I've been thinking of removing some CC for a long time, but I'm too greedy:^(

    @ChloeDeCookie Just wanted to say I think the sim in your avatar right now is *gorgeous*... love that hair, too! (I'm a Maxis Match girl, though... but she's beautiful!) :)
  • Is it possible to increase the amount of cc without limitations. Like adding more Ram or something?
  • I mean I think you're good to have as much CC as you want provided that it fits your computer specs? but don't expect your game to run smoothly, bc I have like 10gb and I'm lucky if certain save files run smoothly past 10 minutes

    I love CC, but I'm very selective in what I download and try to keep it to things I'm going to use frequently or use for a specific sim. I will delete items too every now and then because sometimes what looks cute in a picture looks horrible on my sims in game, at least to me. The only things I tend to keep regardless are shoes and wedding gowns. Maxis Match comes in handy if you like to download a lot of CC, as its not as hard on your system as Alpha.

    A tip I've seen on keeping CC from lagging your game as much: Rename anything with special characters - if it's nothing but letters and numbers, the game seems to parse it beter.


    What about brackets? Some mods have names in brackets, should we also take those out?
  • Hello!
    I got a problem about my sims 4 won't start after i put some new cc-s. I had 1500 around (and it started normally) before i put in some new ones, but the funny thing is, i had to lower it to around 1050 so now it start again ._. Before i hadn't any problems with it, it also ran the broken cc-s too .. Now im confused, and sad, coz i thought it could run around 2000? My pc specs are Intel Core i5-3340 4.10 Ghz, 16 GB Ram (ddr 3) , win10, there is also 100+ GB free space on the disk where i run from my game, and when i am in the game there are no problems, and i haven't had ever. No crashed, laggs , freeze, anything. Just this thing about the cc-s NOW. And what i downloaded , i tried to put them into the Mods folder, and the game can run it smootly too. So now im puzzled :S
    Is there anything i could do to run ALL my cc-s?
  • Oooh I have a TON of stuff, and counting. I love cc -and coming from TS2, I love mods as well - they extend gameplay so beautifully. It's only a handful that I have to swap out when new things update, the rest are surprisingly resilient. I stay away from things like careers since they tend to break, but I love having more traits and additional gameplay.
