I just downloaded the sims 3 and the expansion packs back after a couple of years of not playing. Thanks for giving me another reason to be more excited to play again!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Make sure to install the essential mods like nraaas and smooth patch. Here's a big guide on tweaking Sims 3: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1131162350
Great video and thanks for the heads-up for some new mods for me; I'm going to try them out on my next play. There's a couple I'd like to add to your list that I couldn't play without now and both are available from Mod The Sims: The first of them is Consort Grow, which is for children and teens. Depending on how long you have your life stages set, a child will start out really short-arse and gradually grow taller through their childhood. As they get close to teening up, they become quite tall and lanky. The same applies to teens - short to tall. This one will compliment the Consort Age mod you mentioned for adults perfectly. My second recommendation is another one for the kids: No Stretch Children Can. This opens a lot of abilities for you sim kiddies without that weird stretching they'll do without it. They can now do laundry, make wine, play guitar, piano, drums and violin, use the consignment shop, the sketch pad and they can garden too. There might be a few I missed out, but this mod actually makes your kids useful; I had one learn guitar and she got so darn good at it, by the time she was about to teen up, she was attracting massive crowds and raking in over forty grand in a single four hour busking session.
Will definetly check out the hamper mod, I don't let my sims do laundry anymore because I got fed up with even neat sims just dumping their dirty laundry on the floor everytime they changed or used a bath/shower. Doesn't help that I tend to have large household and the maid is glitched and doesn't recur unless I phone every day. Will also check out the Annoyances and baby/toddler mod, that looks really cute and will be nice to have more interactions with them. Thankyou I had no idea these existed.
Have you seen the new Pause Mod PuddingFace has made per my request? Its a simple but game-changing useful mod if you micromanage multiple Sims. It adds an interaction that can be added to your Sims queue which will pause the game. Its great to see that there is still a big Sims 3 community, and there is still coming new mods to it. Sims 2 & 3 are by far the best games in the series. - RandersDreng
Thank you very much for this video! I am a long time sims player, also play with many mods and CC, but didnt even knew about some of these mods. Thank you so much for sharing with us
I finally came back to ts3 after 10 years and man oh man your vids are lifesavers. I've forgotten most of this game, and lost all my mods. It's nice to have a new place to start. Tysm!!
I've been back to the sims 3 for two or three months already, and I´m enjoying it soooo much! Thank you for these mods, I didn't know any of them and some of them I need! Please tell us more, Simmattically!
There are options where you can decide if you want the mod to affect all Sims or just the Sims in your active family. Sims "age" every night around 1am, and the game doesn't "think" about these things at any other time, so the only lag may happen at night.
My favourite mods are the gardening gnome, gemstone box, storage box, item stacking, put away items (putting away harvestables and fish into the fridge). These are probably my most useful mods. The gnome automates gardening functions like watering, weeding, and reviving. The gemstone box stores and generates stones, with options on metal ores, uncut gems, or cut gems and metal ingots. The storage box is a simple box that can store everything storable and the box itself can be carried in a sim's inventory. It is great for keeping the sim's inventory uncluttered. Boxes can be nested inside each other, and the gemstone box can be stored inside it too. All four of these are on ModTheSims.
great video. how can i make wall not to disappear completely when i come close, yes, im aware of that middle wall button, but still the whole thing disappears, i forget which wallpapers i have. its only up when on full wall button, but then i cant see anything inside because of the wall. so, how to make front wall disappear and wall behind to stay on so i can at least admire the walls i painfully customised lol
Apparently you need the EP to go with whatever hamper you choose. The hampers are cloned from the EP so if you dont have the EP I dont think it will work. I really wanted the hamper mod but I dont have any of those EPs/
I am so happy to find you here. I did follow you on Twitter and now here. I did buy SIms 3 almost a week ago and i forget many tricks. Thanks to your videos I can hopefully play it and enjoy it.
For super hamper, I think you need at least one of three EPs to make it work. I really wanted that mod but to download the hampers (or get them to work) you need the specifica hampers that come from any of three EPs. If you dont have the EPs I dont think it will work. I think its very silly and Im bumbed I cant get it. It would make laundry stuff so easy!
none of these are really that game changing, which just shows how amazing the base game is. We deserve a game that is a cross between sims and sim city
Before you install it, read the modder instructions. If there's no information about it, read the comments. I don't have this specific mod, but I have "gardening is fun" from Mod The Sims and it's in my override folder.
Hey! I am going back top the sims 3 after almost a decade. And i want to play with hybrids and a magic world. Do you know any mods that can expand on occults or give us hybrids?
Hi! I have a question - I'd like to download Simsi's shadow on but the description says it conflicts with other lighting mods. He says I need to change some .ini files in the lighting mods I currently have (burnt waffles/wasset) but I've having trouble doing that and cant find any info on how to do that. do you have any experience changing .ini files? Thanks!
Long story short, you need to use a program like s3pe. I won't be able to provide a detailed instruction for it, but this should be the starting point for you!
Bruh I just had a heart attack because I literally thought my pc broke because of the intro T_T lmao, my pc is old so it does do some weird things but oh my goodness that got me good lol
OH MY GOODNESS literally once I clicked on this video i hit the play button in the sims 3 and then I was so sure my computer just crashed 🤣 dont do me like that!!!
I download some mod from link this video. Hope not make any game crash because conflict mod🙅🏼♀️🙅🏼♂️🌈🌈🌈🌈because i replay again that use more time because replay again that continuing that game happen crash before! Some i not download cause as witch, can magic upgrade without handiness or service upgrade. Want quick sims doing but i see elevator mod use in this video, i not need download because want tiny feel realistic, sims moving to other floor when finish flash ½ circle light elevator. I want fridge shopping in old house (small house) but must ALL perfect ingredients in fridge as possible when in new house (big house) (not all objects in big house always expensive, for variety). Update: Sad, some mods i already downloaded, i delete afterward except fast rake leaf because my computer not want open those mods WinRAR, so cannot extract those files including exaggerated pose mood sim. My computer is Windows XP, actually still outdated computer for this era age now.
i dont mind the npc looking all the same, i will just burn them in the street day and night, night and day. thats how they wont die cause the grim reaper is not available in that area.. i removed my error tag? or was that error lag? mod. so that i can endlessly torture some of these npc that keeps on spawning on my town, cause nrass Story P is isnt for me. thats why npc keeps spawning. disabler mod can also fix your broken things. without calling the repairman. i downloaded something new in sims 3 after a long time of hiatus, i think its "sims control" mod, i can now teleport anyone who i want in my area. omg whoever made that mod recently. its one of my fave.
The beginning really got me!!! lol

The Sims 3 store is also alive and kicking! I was really bummed when the Sims 2 premium content was discontinued.
Play on friend!
Thank you! It's great that people still play this game. It's my favorite in the series
Of course! I love The Sims 3. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment!
Mine too!
Thank you! You made me learn something new. Most other sims 3 videos talk about the same well-known mods over and over.
I'm so glad! I definitely wanted to share less popular mods that are still game-changing for me. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
This game will never get old❤️

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. ❤️
Thank you very much for this video! I am a long time sims player, also play with many mods and CC, but didnt even knew about some of these mods. Thank you so much for sharing with us
You're very welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed!
Theres another mod made by the same person who made "age" called "grow", which makes children gradually grow into teens
I love sims 3 it's also my fav! Thank you for the mods showcase!
I was recently thinking about installing TS3, thanks for those mods tips!
I'm glad I could help! 😅
Wow, these are actually useful. Thanks!
Wow i have never even heard of some of these! The aging mod looks cool. I wish someone could somehow do the same kind of thing for other life stages.
Oo the aging mod looks really nice. I’ve been binging a lot of your videos lately and I am in love with The Sims 3 again ❤
I finally came back to ts3 after 10 years and man oh man your vids are lifesavers. I've forgotten most of this game, and lost all my mods. It's nice to have a new place to start. Tysm!!
Started to play sims 3 again, and I have missed it greatly😩👍🏼
I hope these mods will enhance your gameplay at least a little bit! :D
Nice video!
Thanks for great mod recommendations 🎉
Wow I haven't heard of a lot of these. Totally downloading when I get off work! Thanks. ❤
Have fun!
Thanks. I have some of these but I found a few new mods to add.
I've been back to the sims 3 for two or three months already, and I´m enjoying it soooo much! Thank you for these mods, I didn't know any of them and some of them I need! Please tell us more, Simmattically!

Genial! Muchas gracias. Espero más recomendaciones de mods. :D
Amazing, thank you!!!
Please make it a series!! We need this! Also with cc! Unfortunately, I can't add mods, I tried but I don't have the mod section in my files...
Thanks! I contacted you on Twitter to help you with the Mods folder!
You can just add a mods folder into your Sims 3 folder
Hi I play Sims 3 still so this will be a great video for me
Love all the mods. Thank you for the link also. 😍
🙌 these are so good! i didn’t know about many of these thank you😊
I'm so glad! Thank you for leaving a comment!
Thank you! The aging mod looks so neat! Curious about how it effects lag. Would love to see more(:

I love how I've played this game since it came out and have only just started using mods
Loved this!
Thank you!
the intro scared me so bad LMFAO

All four of these are on ModTheSims.
the captions for the bonus footage💀💀
Wow TS3 is sooo much superior to ts4
Hello, I have a question:
Do all the mods need to be placed exactly where in the mods folder?
In Packages or the other one?
This video is so helpful! I thought I exhausted all the mods in modthesims, but the video genuinely gave me new ones I never knew about.
thank you
That bonus footage was absolutely hilarious! Thanks for sharing! :D
awesome!! ♡
Thanks! 😄
great video. how can i make wall not to disappear completely when i come close, yes, im aware of that middle wall button, but still the whole thing disappears, i forget which wallpapers i have. its only up when on full wall button, but then i cant see anything inside because of the wall. so, how to make front wall disappear and wall behind to stay on so i can at least admire the walls i painfully customised lol
Thanks. I love playing Sims 3 😊. Best game, will check out the mods. Really loved the exploding fridge though! 🎆😂
How did he make the fridge blow up? Lmao
i tried downloading that hampers in 2011, just playing again, but the hampster doesnt work for me.
Apparently you need the EP to go with whatever hamper you choose. The hampers are cloned from the EP so if you dont have the EP I dont think it will work. I really wanted the hamper mod but I dont have any of those EPs/
Great video, think I may install Sims 3 for the first time in years.
I never manage to get those mods working :')
I am so happy to find you here. I did follow you on Twitter and now here. I did buy SIms 3 almost a week ago and i forget many tricks. Thanks to your videos I can hopefully play it and enjoy it.
Welcome aboard!
You forgot about one: KinkyWorld 😅
😂
Is there a certain location you get the mods from?
For super hamper, I think you need at least one of three EPs to make it work. I really wanted that mod but to download the hampers (or get them to work) you need the specifica hampers that come from any of three EPs. If you dont have the EPs I dont think it will work. I think its very silly and Im bumbed I cant get it. It would make laundry stuff so easy!
Hi are you using some graphics mods?
none of these are really that game changing, which just shows how amazing the base game is. We deserve a game that is a cross between sims and sim city
hey! I have a question does the Faster leaf raking mod go on the packages folder or the overrides folder?
Before you install it, read the modder instructions. If there's no information about it, read the comments. I don't have this specific mod, but I have "gardening is fun" from Mod The Sims and it's in my override folder.
all of these mods work for the latest version of sims 3 right? cuz I saw faster elevator mod was last updated in 2011
Hey! I am going back top the sims 3 after almost a decade. And i want to play with hybrids and a magic world. Do you know any mods that can expand on occults or give us hybrids?
I know NRAAS has a hybrid module but I haven’t messed with it
Hi! I have a question - I'd like to download Simsi's shadow on but the description says it conflicts with other lighting mods.

Bruh I just had a heart attack because I literally thought my pc broke because of the intro T_T lmao, my pc is old so it does do some weird things but oh my goodness that got me good lol
lol you kinda gave me a jump scare thought that happened with my pc
does reshade count as a mod?
no
@@cuteshortcake21 I guess your right btw nice profile pic
Why does it say "Just Kidding" at the beginning? The Sims 3 is buggy as hell.
Me watching this as a sims 4 player
That intro was so triggering 😭😭😭
the beginning of the video made me thing my computer was going to die @_@
OH MY GOODNESS literally once I clicked on this video i hit the play button in the sims 3 and then I was so sure my computer just crashed 🤣 dont do me like that!!!
I'm sorry! 😂
I download some mod from link this video. Hope not make any game crash because conflict mod🙅🏼♀️🙅🏼♂️🌈🌈🌈🌈because i replay again that use more time because replay again that continuing that game happen crash before!
Some i not download cause as witch, can magic upgrade without handiness or service upgrade. Want quick sims doing but i see elevator mod use in this video, i not need download because want tiny feel realistic, sims moving to other floor when finish flash ½ circle light elevator. I want fridge shopping in old house (small house) but must ALL perfect ingredients in fridge as possible when in new house (big house) (not all objects in big house always expensive, for variety).
Update: Sad, some mods i already downloaded, i delete afterward except fast rake leaf because my computer not want open those mods WinRAR, so cannot extract those files including exaggerated pose mood sim. My computer is Windows XP, actually still outdated computer for this era age now.

disabler mod can also fix your broken things. without calling the repairman. i downloaded something new in sims 3 after a long time of hiatus, i think its "sims control" mod, i can now teleport anyone who i want in my area. omg whoever made that mod recently. its one of my fave.
