What’s In My Sims 4 Mods Folder (With Direct Links)

Last updated 5/30/2026 44.3 GBs

Nothing in this post is meant as advice. While I have had no problems with any of the mods listed here, I cannot guarantee the same results for anyone else. Please use your best judgement when downloading and installing mods into your game.

Something you should know about me is I am very much a game play girlie! I mean I did chose this user name for a reason after all.

I’m not a builder and CAS stresses me out but honey game play?? Yeah that’s where I thrive. I’m in the trenches playing the game for real! As a result, anytime I experience the slightest inconvenience you better believe I’m scouring every crevice of the internet looking for a modded solution.

This post is the accumulation of my results. A comprehensive list of every single mod I currently have in my game.

Personally, I wouldn’t say I play with a ton of mods, but it may seem excessive to a vanilla player. The largest my mods folder has ever been is 65 GBs and, believe it or not, that’s quite light. At the time of this post I’m currently sitting comfortably at 11.7 GBs.

I prioritize game functionality over everything else so most mods are small but impactful quality of life ones. It’s sad but since EA has yet to take the game from its nonsensical unplayable state, mods really carry the game for me.

I did recently delete my entire mods folder so I’m slowly adding mods back in as I need and/or want them so expect the number above to change. I think it’s helpful for you all to know the size so I will keep that up to date whenever I make changes.

**Update** (status as of 8/19/25 – now at 24 GBs. This also includes CAS and Build/Buy CC; My full CC list can be found here).

**Update** (status as of 9/26/25 – now at 1.11 GBs. I crashed out again after the 9/18 update corrupted majority of my played save files causing a horrible For Rent bug. Then I accidentally deleted everything (saves, sims, lots, even the game) trying to unsync OneDrive. Now I’m literally redoing everything from scratch. *dramatic ugly cry*

LittleMsSam

I use so many of their mods that it’s really just easier at this point to give them their own section. If you haven’t heard of this creator, I highly recommend you just go down their entire catalog here. It’s definitely worth pledging to their Patreon as well if you have the means. Most of their mods are small, quality of life mods that really make the game more playable and/or enjoyable.

Lot Traits & Challenges

I play with a lot of multipurpose lots and I love for them to be full and for sims to use literally everything available to them. That’s where lot traits and/or challenges come in. You can really personalize the activities you want your sims to do and objects you want them to use with the help of these additions. I also use a few by LittleMsSam linked above; my little neighborhood, auto employees, and custom lot traits are ESSENTIAL!

• Adeepindigo – Lot traits
• Insimnia – Let’s Eat
• KiaraSims4Mods – Lot traits
• MissyHissy – Office
• Waffle’s Mix-Ins – “Keep Quiet” Lot Challenge
• Wicked Pixxell – City Vibes

NPC & Townie Control

• Kuttoe – Home regions
• Simplyanjuta – Presets selection for randomized sims, No makeup & accessories on randomized sims
• Zer0 – Walkby overhaul, Private filters

Overrides

Rabbithole Activities

I personally love rabbit hole activities and am constantly looking for more! Especially when playing with multiple sims. Sometimes you just need a break lol.

• Adeepindigo – Personal Care Services, Youth Equestrian Club, Youth Sports Afterschool Activities
• Danitysimmer – More Volunteer Activities

Social Interactions

Traits

• Babybeesims – Vanilla Girl, She’s a Snob, Silver Spoon Society, Beyond The Base, Island Vibes, Morning Sim
• Chingyu – Cat and Dog custom traits pack
• digitprojectart – Autistic
• ilkavelle – Allergic to fur and more traits

Summary

I absolutely love mods and would never have even started playing The Sims 4 if not for the tremendous efforts put forth by the modding community. You all carry this game on your backs and I’m oh so grateful.

Trust I’m putting money in all of yalls pockets as soon as I have it to blow.
