Hey guys! I usually download CC for the Sims games. Sims 1, 2, and 3. I haven't downloaded anything yet for the Sims 4 because I'm a little nervous about it. Right now my game is running very smoothly and I'm pretty attached to all of my households. I don't want to deal with any potential glitches or crashes. I see that there is a lot of stuff out there now and I would love to try out some mods/CC..etc.
How many of you are using Custom Content in your game? For those that are using CC, Have you run into any problems?
Thanks for your feedback

That's a bummer though... ;(
Before you use mods or CC, back up your saves and your tray folders. Then plunge in and test each mod or CC to make sure you like it or it does what you want it to do. I also read people's comments at mod the sims to see if everything is working like it should.
Just don't be crazy and download from off the wall weird sites that are not known. AND BACK UP YOUR SAVESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!
I would start with:
modthesims
mysims4blog
Also, read the comments and the feedback before you download.
and I see no reason to start now.
> I always think of mods and CC as separate beasts. Am I wrong to think that. I use tons of mods but no CC.
Like... mods "do" something while CC just lays there? >:)

Also, ever since TS2 (didn't see the problem much in TS1) most sims CC looks so un-Maxis like. I actually LIKE the cartoon-ish looking stuff and the hair. I want my playables to look like they are the same species as the townies. I can put 453485 mods in the game and it still LOOKS like the sims game and not a bunch of porcelain dolls with silky hair down to their knees. I know some people like that, but not in MY game.
I classify them like this as well.
Mods - modifies the existing game (either XML or Script Mods)
CC - adds a new item to the game - I use this term for things like custom outfits
You shouldn't have a problem with it if your game is on the newest update (the one with the ghosts).
Not sure why people are having issues enough to say "all cc crashes the game" but people are odd...
And if some glitch does occur all you have to do is go into your mods folder and delete the bad item (though I do suggest contacting the creator and letting them know you had an issue)
maybe cc is crashing because it was created for the demo?
