Today I received the complete edition of TS3. I'm excited but also I feel a little bit lost because I have no so much experience with this TS edition. After TS4 I have a lot of problems to feel that game. Can someone recommend me some mods? I definitley need any reshade and a mod to optimalize the game.

But first there is something about the wording of your post that is ringing an alarm, I'm afraid. There is no such thing as the "Complete Edition" of TS3 from legitimate sources and the pirated edition of the game by that name that can unfortunately be found on sale for unbelievably low prices in certain darker corners of the web does not run correctly and from all accounts cannot be patched properly nor modded.
Did you mean Complete in a more conversational sense rather than a formal one, like you just purchased the base game and all of its EP/SPs, and is your game installed from and managed by Origin, Steam, or by way of the original retail store discs manufactured by EA? If so, then none of this applies and we can return to the original conversation.
Edit: Ah, those sneaky marketing folks over at Steam have called this year's TS3 Holiday Bundle the "TS3 Collection." That, of course, is totally fine. But it's not really referred to as a Complete Edition like the bogus one is.

To answer the question, I'd recommend the NRAAS Overwatcher mod for better game performance and less lag, it removes unroutable Sims and other things that clog up the game. Another mod - a lightning mod since the game tends to have really bad lightning - namely Frozen Lighting Mod. I haven't tried it personally, but from what I researched, there's more than one "make lightning better" mod.
Here's a good place to begin. To be fair, we at NRaas had some input and made suggestions for this list, but it's very EA and player friendly.

Other things you should know is to turn off memories, always use « save as » (not save and quit) and keep backup saves, dont add tourist sims to your household, always fully quit the game if moving between saves (dont go to main menu), dont use cheats to delete sims, get a save cleaner and have fun exploring this game !
