Anyone Can Do It! How to Make Mods in The Sims 4

A tutorial that will teach you how to make mods in The Sims 4. Using XML tuning files, you can make packages to mod the game. Sims 4 Studio makes this a simple matter, and I have listed other utilities that come in handy for browsing the game data to learn how things work in order to make mods successfully.

Sim: is ravenous, about to die.
Me: leaves some food right next to the Sim on the counter.
Game: makes the Sim play the animation of whining and being extremely hungry instead of saving time and just eating the food.
Sim: collapses from hunger.

HECK YES!!!! I really wanted to make some small mods, so this is awesome!!! Yes! Yes yes!!

"they don't do what they're told when they're told." Made me laugh so much.

Me, a Python developer: Dude I just want some instructions so I don't wreck my game.

your annoyance at the arousing sandwitch made me laugh out loud

Honestly removing most idle animations would save a lot of time Sims spend basically doing nothing.
Like making an XML Tuning mod to reduce the delay between Sims taking another bite/sip of their food and drink.

EA: Creates "Game"
Mod Community: Takes out quotation marks

A mod tutorial?
THAT ISN'T "RECOLOR A SHIRT"?!
FINALLY!
SOMEONE NOT LAZY

You are the best. When I saw this, I immediately thought that this video could be a turning point. Game-changing. When you do simple Mod videos to teach the community how, more people might start doing cc than ever and perhaps push Maxis to be better. Have you ever thought of it this way, when you speak of gameplay?

Might not use this myself (suck at computer things like coding. ) But it was very insightful to watch thank you!

Hi Carl,

I’m Ivy. A Chinese Sims 4 player. I love all of your guides for The Sims 4. They are so helpful, I would not know the game this well without your guides.

The Chinese player base is growing. We have excellent custom content, but I haven’t found any quality guides for the game in our Sims players community.

It will be my honor if I get your permission to translate your guides into Chinese.
I will definitely link your original website on the top. All credit goes to you.

My total “programming” experience consists of playing around with Basic in 1977, learning enough HTML to make basic webpages 20 years ago, and bludgeoning SQL hard enough to pass a graduate class in instructional technology. This has made me think that with time, I MIGHT possibly be able to make a mod. Thanks. :)

I'm totally confused but this was very interesting. Is there a mod to keep them in their chairs? The constant getting in and out of chairs is so annoying, especially in restaurants.

Thanks a ton for this! I admit I haven't done any coding in a WHILE, but I have wondered what it would take to make my own mods, so I absolutely love knowing that it is within my capabilities 🤗🤗🤗!

[irishduchess]

You act as if cold ham and cheese sandwiches AREN’T arousing...

Thank you for this, I’ve been thinking about trying to mod and creates few pieces of CC. This makes it far less intimidating.

I literally just took a Python class at my university during the summer semester. This video was very helpful. Thank you!

[MalikChildish]

This was literally the most perfect video to watch to start my Sims mod journey

[KajsaBernhardina]

I have a whole new appreciation for modders now

[oOoKaylaGirloOo]

I don’t even wanna make mods but I’ve always been so damn curious on what it looks like and the programming, if it weren’t for modders this world would suck lol

[ayou]

I would love to STOP my sims from browsing their phones. All the mods I've used in the past are not working. Thanks carl! I'm gonna try to mod.
