TS2 Quality of Life Mods
idk what else to call them... Mods that make sims slightly less annoying to deal with, or slightly more self-sufficient, or tweaks that help reduce risks of corruption or otherwise avoid less than ideal problems/situations.
It’s not 100% comprehensive, just a list of mods I personally use or have used. Even then I have way more mods than this total, but I just wanted to focus on one specific aspect.
I intended this to be more like a personal archive than anything, so don’t take it as guarantee that every single one works together without conflict lol
Mods by TwoJeffs
• Visitor Controller (you can allow/ban sims from a lot based on tons of things)
• ACR (Autonomous Casual Romance)
• Same Sex Marriage (no “Joined Union" for gay couples just “Married”)
• Stinky Dormies & Assignments Fix (dormies never shower or complete assignments because Do Assignment advertises Hygiene fulfillment??)
• Smart Beds (enforces bed ownership, but I don’t really use it because townies or sims you've never directed to Sleep will never autonomously sleep in a bed)
• Have-Adopt Child Want Fix (adopting a baby fulfills Have a Baby want & vice versa)
• Sim Blender (modify motives, skills, relationships, skills, personality... everything basically. also the fastest way to do the Good Genes Challenge because you can choose one sim to get pregnant by another sim and accelerate the pregnancy to only take 3 hours instead of 3 days)
• Preg for All Genders (AF sims can impregnate AF/AM sims, or AM sims can impregnate AM sims, stuff like that)
Mods by BoilingOil
• No Trash Memories (removes “Met [Sim]” and “Moved In/Out” memories so they don’t clog up the memory panel, also removes “Met Mystery Sim” memories from CAS sims so they can have a First Kiss with a real sim lol)
• No Sim Loaded (removes “Sim Loaded” tokens from sims, which apparently do nothing anyway, and whenever a lot is loaded it automatically clears/resets things that are otherwise broken or could possibly cause corruption, also suppresses the Super Duper Hug Bug so you don’t see it in the game)
• No Lecture Baby (stops sims from lecturing babies for being stinky)
• Less Toddler Annoyance (toddlers ask adults for stuff based on needs/skills)
Mods by Pescado
See this post and this post for mod descriptions/compatibility
• Batbox (clear gossip to reduce chances of corrupted memories, make sims stop doing the silly dance face if it gets stuck, delete all rain puddles, make dormies stuck as transparent from being in their room normal again, etc.)
• Stuck Object Remover (place it on a square to delete everything in that square if you can’t otherwise see/interact with whatever’s stuck there)
• No Unlinkage On Urnstone Delete (prevents shredded character files caused by deleting tombstones or when moving them to community lots)
• No Corrupted Death Memory (reduces the chances of seeing the corrupted memory that we all know as the “squiggly lines” - btw it’s a corrupted memory NOT a corrupted sim/hood. still not great, but also not the end of the world if you do end up seeing it)
• Creature Fixes (random fixes for supernatural behaviors/wants/appearances)
• AL Fixes (fixes related to things from AL that the EP broke or came broken lol)
• Vacation Fixes (fixes related to bugs from Bon Voyage)
• Anti-Redundancy (prevents tons of new NPCs being needlessly created)
• No SS Respawn (limits new townies being created to fill Uni Secret Societies)
• No Stray Respawns (prevents tons of stray dogs/cats being created)
• Garden Club Townie Fix (makes the game treat Garden Club members as townies, because it didn’t before, which prevents issues that may have caused)
• Door Jam Fix (fixes doors getting stuck open by a light or stair tile)
• Warmth Fixes (prevents zombies from getting frostbite or sims exercising indoors spontaneously combusting)
• Drama Professor & Met Self Fix (prevents useless memories related to the drama professor and “Met Self” from happening)
• Front Door Hack (the door a deliveryperson considers the “front” door makes more sense, instead of a garage or a door in the back of the house)
• Smarter Cashier (makes it faster to earn the Register talent badge, because apparently by default it otherwise takes 50 checkouts to get to Bronze)
• No Humble (Rod Humble doesn’t visit new families but you can buy his PC)
• No Eat Crap (sims stop eating when they’re full or if food spoils while eating)
• Anti-Foodnapping Hack (sims won’t fall asleep in their food if doing so would cause them to die of starvation)
• Less Whiny (sims whine less about “stupid things” - idk what that means but I’ve apparently been using this mod sooo yeah lol)
• Don’t Wave At Me (if sims are having a problem they just have the problem instead of yelling at you about it first)
• Anti-Weather Reactions (prevents reacting to weather from becoming a thing sims have to do immediately even when they’re doing other stuff or sleeping)
• No Servo “Do Chores” (removes autonomous “Do Chores” self interaction from servos)
• No Baby Harassment (stops sims from constantly interacting with babies, which is annoying because then babies never get a chance to sleep)
• No Route Fail (stops the complaining/yelling when sims are blocked by something, leaves only the thought bubble telling you what’s causing the blockage)
• Local Walkbys (walkby sims are from the same hood the lot is in)
Mods by Cyjon
• Smarter EP Check (many of Cyjon’s and others’ mods require this to work)
• Lot Inspecter (place it on a lot and it tells you if it’s safe to delete a lot or not because of tombstones, offworld loiterers, owned businesses, etc.)
• NPC Maker Fix (improves functionality of NPC Maker that can be spawned with TestingCheatsEnabled)
• Breadfruit Tree Fix (stops tree from burning forever after lightning hits it)
• Bug Collection Fix (sims literally can’t complete the bug collection without this)
• Call to Meal Fix (doing “Call to Meal” won’t include servos/babies/toddlers/plantsims/NPCs in who comes over to grab a plate)
• Dance Advertising Tweaks (different dances are preferred based on personality)
• Dance Near Stereo (sims doing the smustle get closer to the stereo first instead of just suddenly dancing outside in the corner of the lot alone)
• Dumb “In Use” Test (sims won’t go all the way across the lot to use an object if it’s already being used by another sim)
• Fake Townie Sales (NPCs/townies buying from a business don’t get tons of objects piled in their inventory, it just disappears)
• Fewer Tourists (allows smaller/fewer Vacation Destination tourist families, because otherwise the game expects 12 families with at least 4 members each and will not generate any tourists at all if there’s less than that)
• Floor Sleep Fix (fixes bug where a passed out sim stops gaining energy)
• Ghost Hack (set of mods you can pick & choose from for ghost behavior)
• Less Naked Freakout (sims in Love don’t get shocked seeing each other naked)
• Meet Professors Fix (fixes bug related to sims in Uni meeting professors)
• Memory Fixes (fixed bugs related to a few memories and associated gossip)
• More Dishes (sims pick up more dishes to clean at once than originally)
• No Table Platters (sims can’t put serving platters on eating surfaces)
• Pool Ladder Autonomy (sims autonomously enter pools using the ladder)
• Relationship Decay Fix (fixes bug related to daily relationship decay involving larger sized families/households)
• Self Preservation (sims prioritize satisfying Hunger over Bladder or Energy)
• Smarter Chair Selection (sims choose seating more sensibly, based on location/proximity/activity)
• Smarter Food Serving (sims decide how many plates to serve based on who’s on the lot without including people like babies or ghosts)
• Townie Apartment Residents (empty/unplayed apartments are filled by townies instead of social groups, which you might not have/want in a hood)
• Townie Enthusiasm Seeder (gives townies hobby enthusiasm if they don’t have any, usually when they were made in CAS then turned into a townie)
• Vampire Walkbys (more nighttime walkbys involving different supernaturals)
• Yoga/Meditation Fix (you can put Yoga/Meditation in a sim’s queue multiple times so they resume after falling without it disappearing from the queue)
Mods by Nopke
• Random Dormies (dormies that move in are picked randomly instead of being the lowest numbered, also if a dorm a dormie lived in is demolished or no longer has a playable sim in it then their old dorm room key is removed so they can move into a new dorm)
• Inventory Inheritance (the inventory of a sim who died gets moved to another sim based on their relationship with variances you can choose from)
• Food Already Available Fix (if food is already on a lot then sims won’t autonomously cook, get a snack, or “Stuff Face” with some variances you can choose from)
