hi ! i had a question n hope it’s not too weird but i never played the sims growing up n have no knowledge on it but always dreamed of playing it, it seems like so much fun but the game also seems kinda complicated to get into… do u have any tips on how to start playing it, mods, how to use them, etc… thank u so much for taking the time to read this n have a great day/night <33

Hey! I totally understand that! I started playing because I saw a friend playing it and fell completely in love with it. For starting playing it, I would first just learn the basics of the game. I would highly recommend my friend Krista's article on Sims Community for that!

For help keeping your game healthy I would check out this article written by my wonderful friend SrslySims. Some other great places to check out would be: Sims Community (You can follow us on Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter, Instagram, etc.) Carl's Sims 4 Guide

I've found that watching YouTube videos helped me a lot. I would suggest: EnglishSimmer James Turner

If you're having trouble with your game, I would recommend checking out Crin's blog.

If you cannot find your answer there, you can always find me in either Srsly's Lounge or Ravasheen Discord Servers.

As for mods, SnarkyWitch wrote this great article on how to start with Mods that I recommend. I highly recommend her poses if you get a chance to check them out!

As for organizing your mods folder, TwistedMexi has an ESSENTIAL video about organizing your mods folder.

Some creators I highly recommend are:

Ravasheen, SrslySims, Carl, @needleworkreve, @kingzaceofsims, @oswanily, @chippedcupanddustybooks, @alistu, @itsonlythee-sims, @anachrosims, @aj-nebula, @pandasamacc, @icemunmun, @mizoreyukii, @syboubou, @aroundthesims, @robinksimblr, @nolan-sims

(my apologies for the tags, I have little time to add the links in and wanted to suggest you all) Also, Maxis Match CC World on Tumblr is an excellent resource and so is TS4 Poses.

And finally, if you'd like to read any of my articles, you can find them on Sims Community.

If you'd like individualized help, send me a DM and I can invite you to my Discord Server. There's a lot of people there who are willing to help new Simmers out!

If I missed anything, let me know and I can always send more links. :)
