This has changed a LOT for me since the High School Years pre-patch threw a wrecking ball into the entire social / whims / moods system.
While a lot of that has sorted itself out, during the 'what is going on in my game' phase I started to discover a lot of mood, whim, and gameplay mods.
I'm still sorting all that out because they often conflict with each other. But I'd say that now something in that area if vital to my game.
I'm leaning towards 'Better Sims' but it's a but messy right now - like it works with a better preferences mod and that lets you like / dislike towns, occults, and more - with lists that are often missing things...
bienchen's mod that prevents body hair; norandomhatsaccessoriesandmakeup, is vital for me now. Because yeah... ;)
Dwarven women may have beards and body hair, but this ain't Sims Fantasy...
TOOL is vital to me if for no other reason than it let me add two fishing spots in Tartosa in places where I was baffled by their lack...
PlantSim Lives by srslySims because why is this not a regular occult? We need a gamepack that revamps them into a permanent occult with features.
The usual stuff from littlemssims
MCCC
A certain NSFW mod or two... But these have gotten weird and full of drama of late.
- One of these I need is nothing more than a body reshaper to make the shape of a sim look better. It's ancient, abandoned, and every patch I load the game up with a slight bit of dread.
ShowSimInfo - so glad someone took this one over. For me this is more vital than even MCCC. Just being able to 'know what's going on' in my save... Have the townies all become Aliens... again... did my PlantSims all get reverted to humans because a patch broke their permancy mod... again... is there some hidden trait on that sim over there, or is the game just glitching... etc...
