Did you know I put up a TUTORIAL on adding your favorite patreon to Yiff.party? Click here to check it out.

Scroll to to the top of the page to learn ALL of my dirty CC tricks! Cheers =D

SO I'm old I guess and I totally can't figure it out (for the ones your not subscribed to anyways). If anyone can assist me or whatever, it'll be much appreciated

You don't! But the file size of the content should be a good indicator. A clothing article should not be more than 2Mb (maybe 3-4Mb for a fancy wedding dress) many great outfits I have found are less than 1MB even with a few swatches. But when you have a clothing article that is over 5MB, that should set off a red flag... the only way to know for sure is to examine the content in S4S. See the SPOILER: CC LEVEL OF DETAIL on my tutorial thread linked in my signature.

In my case, I've found a high number of swatches to be the number 1 factor behind most of the gigantic sizes I've come across. I just delete extra swatches now. No need to keep 50 swatches around for most items.

PS. How do those creators have the patience to make those swatches? I know they use photoshop actions but you still have to save and import like 50 files for every clothing item and some of those people are really prolific. I'm too lazy for that.

I can't get this to load for me. *screaming*

The ginormous (wait, no spell check? that can't be a legit word nowadays, is it?) lot or are you having trouble downloading the file? If it's the former, I'd ask are you really surprised lol

Another discovery. If you are using pancakes simulation lag fix I upped a while back, I would advise not using a queue extender like the one turbodriver coded. In fact the default game queue gets filled up sometimes on sims and I notice this too causes lag. I reduced the max queue to 3 and it seems things are working out much better. Interactions happen more often too.

is what you want. Make a sim that wears only stuff you wish to get rid of and SAVE IT. Then make a LOT with CC you do not want and save it as well. Open in tray importer and you can directly find the mods you marked for deletion. I cover this and other dirty tricks mentioned on my tutorial thread. See link in my signature.

I actually do the reverse when I'm culling files, I export all households and lots with the include CC tab. except script related mods, animations, etc (The importer actually zips the tray and CC files and when unzipped, they go into the categories I organized them in ) Once completed, I mass unzipp all files into one folder move all tray files into empty tray folder, all other mods already in there proper folders are thrown back into a empty mod folder I let them override and place them back into the EA folder. This process probably might take a little longer ( approx 20 mins with 90GB ) But it's what I've been doing for sometime now and it seems to work for me.

Morning everybody. I'm pretty sure I remember this question being asked a few hundred ages ago so hope nobody minds me asking again. Does anybody know of any active career mods like RedApple? All the jobs are like the ideal version of them. Zerbu doesn't help really. Hardly any serious set-backs, nice bosses etc... It's just not realistic! I see Ksuihuh is working on a homeless mod for est. November which I hope is active, but maybe just some unpleasant drudge work?

Mmmm Hmmm! Some sucka made a 50Mb T-shirt with 35 megs worth of graphics but the poly count on the top is STILL sittin on 15Mb.. Time to toss out that CC... I don't have time to be fixing every piece of content which comes into my game, I only edit the ones with potential!

It's just not realistic!

Hmmm, lets see a show of hands... How many of you play TS4 for REALISM? I play Sims 4 when I want a short escape from real life and a hearty belly laugh. I get where you are coming from though, a bunch of people seek some level of realism in their game... Like stopping their sims from being compelled to clean up after children at the park. I would suggest to you to have a look around the YiffDirectory (linked in my signature) for entries with a " # " symbol. Maybe you will find what you need. Cheers!

I also did what you did and for example:

This CC originally had 9MB, I reduced it from 12 swatches to 4 swatches getting 5.3MB.
However, there is something else that contributes to the large size of the CC, which is the resolution of the texture of swatches themselves.

Most have been done with a resolution of 2048X4096 pixels. I reduced to 1024X2048 and managed to reduce the CC to 4.1MB.


I didn't notice any changes in the final quality of the cloths in the game.

This work of reducing the number of swatches and resolution can be easily done using GIMP and Sims4Studio, without any deep knowledge of both.

Currently before placing a new CC in the Game I choose the swatches and reduce them. Using other resources besides those described above I ended up reducing the total size of my Mod folder from 20GB to 9GB.

Forgive me if I went too long.

Plus Sims 4 is hardly realistic. I can't even get sims to fuckin eat right lmao. I guess on Planet Simlar the smell food for nourishment. Yeah that's what EA had intended all along...

I do the same actually. When it doesn't piss me off how broke it is it does provide a relaxing escape but I do recreate places I lived, been too in real life etc...

For me Sims 4 isn't nearly as immersive as Sims 3. Sims 3 was far more realistic, but lagged like hell. (Mostly because of pets). Sims 4 seems like a vastly stripped down version of Sims 3. Actually it's more like a graphically better Sims 2, with much shittier logic and game play. Ever since EA took over Maxis, things have never been right with The Sims. I swear, EA could f*ck up a one car funeral!

Those are the MP4 files...I don't think those work and you need the .package ones?

Mp4 replace the hd ones. (or sd). The only Hd ones i had, were the last couple shared on yiff.
Hd is probably fine for most people. They are larger files.

Drop box gave message that i exceeded downloads. Here is link for first part if have issue with dropbox.

Been thinking of uninstalling pets in Sims 3 and see how it works lol. Sims 3 is my favorite of the games & I agree its much more realistic. Imagine if Sims 3 got a graphics overhaul, updated to 64 bit & DirectX 11

I rarely post in here but I need opinions. If you feel like it (anybody, doesn't matter) can you tell me if I was too harsh? Please?

So guys, I reinstalled the game a couple days ago, and this is the mods I have running right now:



I was wondering if maybe there's some really good mods out there I'm missing. I'm not a big follower of this sims modding community. What do you guys think? Am I missing some good ones?
