Which mod can you not live without?
Thanks to one of the members comment on my "how do men play women sims", I'm compelled to ask which mod can we not live without? I've got running MC Command, Explore, faster eating and drinking, doorbell mod, NPCC, Wonderful Whims, Lumpinous Mood pack, and Risky Woohoo. I can't put the 🐸🐸🐸🐸 mod on because it's so big with all of the animations my computer starts to lax and crash more often. But if there was only one mod that I could have, it would be the MC Command mod. It turns me into God. Now I can setting realism settings that would take too long to go into. If you have it, you know what I mean. So I ask the members, which mod can you not live without? Hmm!!

If more:
MCCC , more columns in CAS, UI Cheats and NO RANDOM.
And something else we cannot talk about in here
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
Because I can't; I keep all sigs turned off.
And remember this above all. Our Roman gods are watching. Make sure they are not ashamed!
My NBA site, Pace and Space
Yeah that something else is Voldermart (shhh) from Harry Potter.
Simvasion. Hmm!! Gotta check them out.
But I have to have the Shorter Teens mods because I can't accept the given teens as teens. They still come off as young adults with a teen label to me. My mod makes them seem more like TS2/TS3 teens.
I tried a chemistry and attraction mod, wonderful whims, UI cheats and an Improved whims mod. I have yet to try MCCC.
My short time with them was fantastic, but I still don't want to be bothered with updating process whenever a new patch happens.
I will wait, as I will probably find myself playing TS4 well into TS5's lifespan. It may be that I never buy TS5, depending on what EA does with it.
MCCC by Deaderpool. Nraas Master Controller (+ StoryProgression) for TS3 is a MUST have for me and this is similar to that. I like being able to tweak little things and make the game a bit more challenging and interesting.
Meaningful Stories by Roburky. Never liked how the Emotions system makes most of the sims act in the same bipolar way with not much of their core personality showing. This one makes the system feel way more organic and actually gives the emotions meaning. No more yo-yoing between different moods like crazy.
WhimOverhaul by Bienchen83. Essential for me. Vanilla whims are a complete dud for they even stopped doing anything with them. This mod adds a tons of whims and makes them actually relevant to a sim's personality/mood. No more "buy some random object" whims.
Vampires Can Kill by Zero. I really love the whole "risk vs reward" element this brings to vampire gameplay. Especially with my main vampire who has the Insatiable Thirst weakness and who used to just Compel for Deep Drink all willy-nilly (minus family members) but now that there's an actual chance of it killing the victim, he's making more conscious decisions on his hunting habits. Of course, the mod also allows you to just play a bloodthirsty vampire who deliberately chooses the deadly options. Really loving it.

There are a couple other mods that are really important for me, and it would be very hard for me to enjoy the game without them.
NPCC - I hate random townies spawning. I make my own NPCs for my world and use NPCC to prevent any from spawning. It also allows me to assign roles manually and disable lot and region locks on certain roles so that I don't need to have 40 sims in my world being waiters; I'd only need 3 to cover all my restaurants. It makes it where I can focus more on quality and not quantity when I make NPCs for my world.
Fitness Controls - It drives me mad how quickly sims gain and lose muscle/fat. Eat one cupcake? Bam! Your sim gained 10lbs! Go to the gym? Bam! You're Captain America now! Of course, I'm exaggerating... a little. Fitness Controls allows me to slow down weight and muscle gain and loss. It also allows me to prevent non played Sims from ever gaining or losing. When my sims live in San Myshuno, the NPCs would eat nonstop and gain massive amounts of weight. Now they can just eat whatever they want and not gain weight at all.
Less Intrusive Conversations - I can't express how much this mod makes me happy. I've always hated random sims joining in on conversations uninvited. This mod makes it where random sims won't join in my conversations.
Simvasion has a mod called Chat Greeting Tweaks that I absolutely love. If my sims are already sitting down, they don't get up anymore to hug or kiss their loved one; They'll stay seated and just wave instead. It makes it so much easier for me to get my sims to stay seated.
I could go on and on about all the mods I think are essential for me, but then I'd probably list too many. I tend to use mods that tweak game design choices and behaviors I find annoying.
Agreed...I have a bunch of small mods in the game that just tweak things that drive me up the wall. I've played enough vanilla to know what bugs me and what doesn't.
MCCC is the #1 for me but as far as the smaller mods go, if I had to get rid of all of them the two I'd miss most are "Don't Eat Food Where You Angry Poop" and "Don't Wash Dishes Where You Angry Poop." Nothing else in the game sparks incandescent, irrational rage in me like watching a sim walk across a house and up two flights of stairs to prepare a salad on a bathroom counter.
Honorable mention: Remove Sims from Conversations by thepancake1 and MizoreYukii.
But we should not need either of these to enjoy whims and get rid of creeps.
2. UI Cheats Extension - Werbeesu
3. (Cannot mention)
4. Have Some Personality Please! - PolarBearSims
5. Meaningful Stories - roBurky
6. Live In Businesses - LittleMsSam
- NoPrerollAutonomy by plzsaysike (nukes the random interactions sims do during loading screens)
- AOM Controlable Pets (partially broken)
That's why I understand some players want to speed up things such as eating. But speeding up everything is not the solution. I don't want to play a game on fastfoward where everything is rushed and animations are reduced to a few seconds. The solution (imo) is to slow down time a bit. Or either offer faster and slower options.
Anyway, don't know if I could play without this mod.
Pose player is a close second. Helps me live out all of my role play dreams like putting a cheer leading team or dance group together using custom animations and custom music. Opens up a lot of Fun creative ways to play.
I have other mods but I think I could still enjoy the game without them. Though I do have a deep love for custom traits. Since I feel like we are sorely lacking them. Especially negative/interesting one.
I have this once custom cute trait. Sims can "say something cute" and other cute things. And other sims think they are sooooo cute. It's just so perfect for my adorable sim😇😇😇
In contrast I have a scary trait that makes sims scared of that sim. I gave it to my evil ugly vampire and when he "vampircly runs by" the lot all the sims get scared I love it lol.
UI Cheats Extension - Weerbesu
Better Build/Buy - Twisted Mexi
