I downloaded Srsly sims: Cooking Overhaul mod and succeeded getting it into my game, but the problem is that the only thing I can find in the Shop For Groceries menu is honey whilst the veggies, herbs, fruit, flowers and fish menus are complete, there's no custom drinks either.
What am I doing wrong?

Their discord would be the best place to get assistance: https://discordapp.com/invite/kDVe56d

Anyone using the Set Relations Mod by Simsmodelsimmer? I want it but can't download it as I can only find a Patreon link and I don't use Patreon... :/

EDIT: Found another link!!

The Patreon link is for free, you don't need to donate to access the Mod.

Sacraficial’s Life’s Tragedies is great for adding in a whole bunch of random events, some even deadly, to the game. My sim was throwing a new years eve party when an armed robber came and everyone freaked out.

LittleMissSam has a mod called “more away actions,” this is useful for inactive sims, you can get them to do plenty more things compared to the standard set of away actions. She also has a mod called “More Holiday Icons,” this adds plenty more holiday icons.

Zurbu has two mods I really like, “More Club Icons,” which adds more club icons, and the “Simology Mod Pack,” this adds the ability to select what actions have what effect on your sims, for example I can set it so my sim gets bored when they play video games, or get angry when working out, etc.

Weerbesu has two mods I like to use, “Improved Autonomy during Loading Screens,” and “No Empty Venues,” this makes loading into a public lot a lot more interesting as sims will be loaded in already doing things as opposed to just standing at the front of the lot.

TwistedMexi TOOL mod is great for adding objects into the worlds themselves. I like to add the Get Together bushes into the base game worlds so my cats and dogs have areas to explore. I also like to use it to add swings and such to parks in the world, it’s great for whatever else you see fit to add into the world, like basket ball nets, toddler playground equipment, extra decor, etc.

NoelleBelleFluer has base game work from home mods, I like the work from home option, so this adds it to base game careers, the criminal one is broken though, but every other one seems to work just fine.


I know its a lot, I’m kind of obsessed with mods, they really are a game changer.

Is this compatible with Meaningful Stories?

Late response, but I haven't had any issues using these mods alongside meaningful stories.

Also question to the OP, will you continue updating this thread?

I think this is absolutely needed. I hate, HATE how I am having romantic or funny conversations with my partners and some random Sim comes and starts talking and interrupting and I have to cancel out the whole conversation. This is unrealistic and just annoying, especially if you are trying to do anything actually social in the game. I'm fine with friends coming over to chat with me and my friends but rando can just stay the heck away.

Before using this mod, I often just used MCC's kill command or just made them pregnant and in labor to get them to leave me alone.

@filipomel Yeah, I’ll make sure I update this thread when I get a chance, hopefully try to do it today or tomorrow there’s a few I need to add.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys

Coolspears has some awesome mods that make gameplay far more realistic (he's also posted recently that after being away there'll be many updates soon.) his World NPC control mods are very cool, (wait for the update though) also his "Quicker Sim Autonomy/Lag fix + fun additions" brings a lot of realism to the game as they just interact with other sims far better.

I'm sure LMS has been mentioned in this thread a fair bit, with over 300 mods, and also Bienchen.. (listed below at the Bulk Modders page) and their own websites, of course.

Find cool mods at the Mods Tracker, added to consistently with both new/updated mods.
