ReShade isn’t exactly a mod, but a graphics injector that works on many games. The sheer amount of variety can make modding appear to be a daunting task, so I’ve put together this list ranking all the best graphic-enhancing mods that can make your game more aesthetically pleasing.īut I’ve also dropped in a few options for the hardcore mod-enthusiasts out there too.


This is generally achieved with a combination of tweaked graphic effects and updated textures in the form of custom content, either hyper-realistic or following the game’s original clay-like art style. They stay hard at work improving the game’s functionality, and more importantly, its looks. Luckily, Sims lovers in the fandom have always been a fertile breeding ground for passionate modders. Combined with stuff like Woohooer and Vector (which includes an HIV-like virus), plus cigarettes and guns and violence, I had a ton of fun playing a realistic 80s/early 90s NYC.Despite enjoying great popularity and still getting new content packs, The Sims 4 has been out for almost six years now.Īnd the graphics have begun to show their age despite the game’s cartoonish style slowing the process(and everyone waiting for Sims 5 details). My favorite was a super-realistic NYC style world. Sometimes, they come already populated with community-made sims with their own stories. One of my favorite things for exciting new TS3 gameplay is the number of custom worlds available. There are also functional gun mods, and functional cigarette mods that include autonomous use and addiction. He has a LOT of different "new interaction" mods, including one for enhanced romantic interactions and some supernatural-type stuff. It's probably my favorite of the nRaas mods.Īnd Woohooer, if you like more adult themes in your game, which adds a Woohoo skill (that comes with neat abilities if you max it out) and the ability to get paid for sex (lots of fun for homeless/rags to riches stories).Īgain, if you like adult themes, there's also a version of Extreme Violence for TS3, by the same modder, though I can't remember what it's called. There's also Vector, which adds realistic disease transmission. The story progression mods add actual stories that play out throughout your town, and you can insert your played sims into them. If you've never used an nRaas mod before, that's probably what you're looking for.
