ALL MY MODS DOWNLOAD: MySims Public Mods - Google Drive.
*MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SAVE BEFORE INSTALLING ANY MOD!
Download and open the .MSI files to install the game mods.
Google Drive might give you a warning because of the .MSI file extension, but I guarantee it's safe. if you don't want to download the mods via Google Drive, you can download them from Nexus. All mods hosted on their website have virus scans. (However, my Nexus mods aren't frequently updated...)

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions:
Installation Path Questions:
Q: Can the mods be installed on a Hard Drive or on another folder?
A: The mods installer will create the folders on "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\MySims".
You need to CHANGE the location of the installation to where MySims is installed on your Hard Drive!
Uninstallation Questions:
Q: How do I remove the mods from my computer?
A: MySims is unfortunately not a game where you can just paste a .package file into a "Mods" folder and remove it another day if you no longer want to use it. All mods modify the game's installation files. So if you don't want to use them anymore, just repair the game via Origin/Reinstall it completely. That's why I advise you to back-up your save before downloading any mod. If you still downloaded a mod, entered the game and there was an error, don't worry! My mods will NEVER modify the Saves folder, so if you don't save the game, or if it crashes when you enter it, nothing will happen to your save. Just make a backup anyway, right?
Q: How can I make a backup of my save?
A: Go to your "Documents\Electronic Arts\MySims" folder and Copy the "SaveData1" folder. If you have a "SaveData2" and/or "SaveData3" folder, also copy them. And then keep them in a safe place!
Improved Gameplay Mods and Advanced Mod Questions:
Q: I installed DEBUG Mode Mod, how do I remove it?
A: Just Install Start an Activity mod over DEBUG Mode Mod, your game will return to its normal mode.
Q: How do I change the game's seasons? Will they change automatically?
A: No, you will have to download the Seasons Mods to be able to change seasons. I recommend changing game seasons every 7 days in-game. Example: Summer is over, exit the game, and install the Autumn mod OVER the Summer mod, this will overwrite the Summer mod files. (There will be no conflict).
(The "Snow Season" mod was made by Mattrio, from the old The Big Mod project. If they want to, I will remove the mod completely. I'm only hosting it so everyone can enjoy their fantastic job and the file won't ever get lost.)
================================================
MySims - Start an Activity Mod:
"With MySims - Start an Activity mod, you can start activities like a sƩance, rocket launch, book club, dance battle and more! In addition to unlocking hidden in-game interactions that were only available to NPCs. I have also modified the Salon Chair, so when you Call you Friend to change their appearance, you'll actually invite them to the lot!"
MySims - Beta Apple Default Replacement:
"This mod will replace the current ugly apple essence/model with the beta apple essence from the old renders and trailers of MySims!"
MySims - Improved Game Camera:
"This mod overhauls the awful default camera from the game. You can zoom far away and very near. Good for taking photos!"
MySims - No Building Limit Mod:
"This mods will remove the building floor limit when you're building a house."
MySims - Neighborhood Stories:
"Now your Sims are more alive than ever. With more than 100 lines of dialogue, they can be more than just a chibi doll! The mod will also try to bring autonomy to NPCs. They will be able to ask your permission to move to another city! Of course, everything has its limits, and you'll have to Kick Out them manuallyā¦ But let's move on to the next feature: GOSSIPS!
This is a feature I loved in Animal Crossing- and I was able to successfully bring it into MySims. Sims will be able to gossip about a variety of topics. So watch out for what they will gossip about!"
MySims - Bella Goth and Social Bunny Unique NPCs:
"Will add completely new NPCs to move into the hotel. With distinct personalities and unique stories!"
MySims - DEBUG Mode Mod:
"For programmers/developers only. This mod unlocks the DEBUG mode, present in almost every game in its development. The only important feature of it (which I see), is unlocking all the blueprints in the game."
