Hello, Everyone!
I was playing my game the other day when I realized I have NO MODS, at all. I was wondering if anyone would share some of their favorites
with an explanation of what the mod does, and the link? Thanks

It hides the annoying sparkly stuff you get from certain lot traits.

Since I have the vampire pack, I have two mods that I really like: Eternal Night in Forgotten Hollow keeps that world dark, so vampires without sun resistance can be out during the day without risking crispy critters. It makes sense for vampires to have a place where they can be safe and go about their business. The other one keeps most vampires out of the "normal" neighborhoods (though it doesn't work on Vlad; he'll still show up for a midnight snack so I deleted him and put his "son" in the mansion so we'll see if any of the other vampires get the munchies). You don't have to worry about strange Sims showing up on your doorstep at 10pm and finding out they're vampires. You might still see them at festivals or in active workplaces (Caleb Vatore is a scientist, for example) but they won't be in the random walkbys in the neighborhoods.

And that's the ONE. I just was able to download my game to my new laptop. I went in to see if it was playable, created a character and then it was time to make dinner. Next day, I tried again. My character, a YA had NO skills. Pity this isn't something we can include in CAS, since some of us like to start with a family. This one was an experiment. Once I realized game play would be off having to start completely from scratch, I made plans to download MCCC there, too. For some odd reason it wasn't working. Then I got the bee to make a copy of my Tray, Saves and Mods folder from the game on my gaming rig. I was able to get that installed into my new game. Works like a champ. Some of my cc clothing goes a tad wonky, but I'm guessing it's older, and the upgraded game doesn't like it much, or the laptop is lacking something. No matter. So what if her panniers flatten out when she turns to the side?

I've been thinking about getting the vampire pack, I'll make sure I bookmark the websites for the vampire mods. Thanks

If you're a fan of watching tv with your sims and hate the video distortion that happens whenever you speed the time up, check out this mod:
http://modthesims.info/d/572727
This is another mod that gets rid of distortion when speeding up time, but it's for stereos:

Thanks, ♥ I'll definitely try out the video distortion mod for the tv and balanced calories mod!
I do use a Darker Loading Screen Mod, because I plan on being able to use my eyes for a little while longer, haha. The gray is really nice. It's nice for when I want to slip into the game a bit before bed, and don't want the white eye blast. I wish the forum had a "Sundown" color scheme as well. YouTube Black, anyone?
I have the Shimrod All Beds Same Energy Mod. It was originally Shimrod's, but was updated by another modder, rial. The page is in Korean, but the actual download link is the 4th line down from the title and has a tiny green arrow to the right of it. It seems to be working fine. It does basically what is says, giving more decorating options for bedrooms without the Cheap Bed sore back moodlet popping up.
The Shimrod Woohoo Acceptance Mod is still working, as well. Who actually fist pumps before they do the do? This replaces that with Flirty animations. Good golly, I hope it never breaks.
LittleMsSam of MTS has several nice works. I use Sleep All Night so that Sims don't wake up at 4AM. Unlock Door For Chosen Sims is good for when you want to let Sims' friends in and are having certain doors locked. You don't have to keep unlocking and relocking them. No Tiny Harvestables keeps produce from shrinking down to almost microscopic size sometimes when you plop it onto a surface.
I have the Zerbu mod that allows you to change the locked lots, the Bluffs, Myshuno Meadows, etc, to different lot types. I don't have the linky, does anyone? He did retire his tumblr due to some sad happenings, but there was still one working link last I knew.
It's a real pain to play without the Simstopics Walk Styles Override, too. I just use the Have To Pee portion of this. It changes the pigeon-toed shuffle to a Jog. If I walked that slow when I had to go, I'd just give it up and buy Depends.
@stilljustme2, does that Keep Vampire Out Mod actually work? They were saying in the comments of the Mod that it didn't since the last patch. I deleted Vlad in my Test Save, I haven't had any vamp visits without the Mod and no Vlad. I don't care if they're around, I just don't want them visiting, ie, coming in without being invited, and feeding, in certain Saves.
@CyrusTheLoser, I use that Shimrod Less Smiling Mod, but think it may be causing lag, still investigating. Do you have City Living, and how does it do when you're in San Myshuno? It does really help with the crazed grinning.
If you want to just hide the effects, but keep the buffs. MC has an option turn off headline effects. No restart required.

I haven't noticed any lag. My San Myshuno is buggy in many ways but I wouldn't say lag is one of my issues. (Other than simulation lag, but that's an issue which even EA has said they are capable of replicating so that's not a cc/mod issue)
there's always a possibility a mod could be messing with the performance of the game but if that has been the case for me, it hasn't been bad enough for me to want to remove it and go back to the creepy smiles

Another one I really like is the UI Extensions Cheat Mod. It has a lot of really helpful things it can do and it's really easy to use. You can use it to drag needs a little bit or fill and deplete them completely, get rid of moodlets, easily add or subtract money from family funds, it also allows you to see the actual relationship value for both friendship and romance by clicking on the sim in your relationship panel and can increase or decrease both as needed. I get a LOT of use out of this mod.
I like to build stuff
I use the TV mod, but the one for stereos is no longer needed because there is an in-game option for this. Options>Audio> uncheck "Match Speed Stereo Music."
Yup, same here!

Headlineeffects off from the Cheats Window doesn't work on the sparkles. Unfortunately, neither does the MCCC setting. It does remove the plumbobs and thought bubbles, but not the sparkles.
After removing Shimrods Less Smiling Mod and going to my San Myshuno restaurant, my "The Sims 4 Is Not Responding" lag of several seconds is gone, even with the Lot Traits on. It could be that it just doesn't play well with another of my Mods, since I seem to be the only one so far with this.
Ah. I thought it disabled everything. I just disable the hover effect.

Hm, I'll look into the darker loading screen mod, me myself too love to play before bed. Oh thank you so much for the sleep all night mod I NEED that one, my sims always wake up early somehow, even when they go to bed dead tired they still end up waking up earlier. Smh.
Just curious but what sad happenings happened to Zerbu, once again just asked out of curiosity. Always gets the best of me, haha.
Thanks so much! Going to download that right now! Haha.
