I'm sorry if this sounds like a dumb question but I see it mentioned everywhere, yet I don't know what it is. I'm fairly new to CC and mods (yet I play the series for 13 years, can you imagine :lol: ) so I don't know all the terms yet.I searched it on the forums and google yet no results in explaining what they are. (Or I just might've missed it...)I do know what Maxis Match is, it's with colours I believe. So is Alpha with non-maxis colours? Or am I wrong?

Alpha CC from what I know is the really realistic CC that looks like it should be in sims 3 and not sims 4. Not many people like it because of that and many people now just stick with the style of Maxis Match because it fits the aesthetic of the game.

Alpha is a more realistic look while Maxis Match fits the style of the game. The way I easily distinguish the two is Alpha is used to get sexier looking sims while Maxis Match helps achieve cutesie sims.

This is a good comparisonhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6OxJgYqQeo

Now I know :)

I recently did a video on this! If you like, my channel is "whimreaper" on YouTube.Alpha CC is designed to look more realistic. It often consists of several categories of skin details and accessories to achieve a really put-together aesthetic. For example, alpha cc shows individual hair strands, has realistic eye overlays, and features categories that are not a part of the game algorithm (like painted nails and separate jackets).Maxis Match CC is designed to fit into the game graphics to blend seamlessly with the surroundings. This means the content looks like it was made to belong in the Sims 4 (AKA Maxis made) and cannot always be distinguished from game content. This content tends to stick to the major clothes/skin detail/accessory groups that the base game offers and its main purpose is to provide some variety to players looking for more content whilst fitting in with the other objects in the game.I hope this helped :) You can see me give examples in my video (just search my channel, and it should be on there)

Alpha CC is realistic looking, but maxis match cc is supposed to look like the original game without cc
