Question 1

How to install a mod?

Accepted Answer

While it may be tempting to organize each mod into its own folder within the "Mods" folder, it is essential that each mod's .package files and scripts are placed within the main "Mods" folder (the one that contains the resource.cfg file), so that they are properly detected by The Sims 4 game.
On the other hand, custom content (CC) can be organized into subfolders inside the "Mods" folder for easier management.
Please make sure this CC folder is also in the "Mods" folder so that it is recognized by the game.

Question 2

What languages are available for my mods?

Accepted Answer

Each mod indicates the available languages in the description of the corresponding article. The translations mentioned in the article are directly included in the mod.

Question 3

I'm having trouble installing a mod, how do I contact you?

Accepted Answer

For any assistance, I invite you to join our Discord server (the link is available in each article and on all my social networks). Discord is the fastest and most efficient way to get help, because we can share screenshots and exchange more easily than on Patreon. So prefer Discord for any help requests.

Question 4

How do I set up my active careers?

Accepted Answer

Active careers are full mods that include custom terrain and specific locations (requiring the Basemental Venue List mod), which requires a special installation. Detailed video tutorials are available in my Patreon articles, guiding you step by step. For an optimal gaming experience, in-game tutorials are also provided.

Question 5

About Better Exceptions

Accepted Answer

The creator of the Better Exceptions mod, TwistedMexi, states that it does not identify broken mods. Therefore, it is not a Last Exception report and should not be used for that purpose. I regularly check my mods to ensure they are working properly, but conflicts can still occur. I recommend that you do your own testing if there are any conflicts between mods.

Question 6

Do my mods work with a cracked version of the game?

Accepted Answer

My mods are designed to work only with the official game and official packs. Using cracked versions of the game carries risks, such as exposure to viruses and outdated versions, which can prevent the mods from working properly. For the best experience, it is essential to use the official version of the game.

Question 7

How to install a CC neon?

Accepted Answer

The Neon CC file is a .package file. Custom Content (CC) can be organized into subfolders inside the "Mods" folder, but must always be in this main folder to be recognized by the game.

Question 8

I am a translator and would like to translate your mods, how can I contact you?

Accepted Answer

Thank you very much for your interest! To contact me, join the Discord server and go to the #grumpy-discussion-chat room. I will be happy to authenticate you as a translator with the role "translator". Your translations will be included in my mods, and you will of course be credited in the corresponding articles.

Question 9

Why is my site ad-free?

Accepted Answer

I have chosen not to include advertising on my site in order to ensure a smooth and pleasant browsing experience for all my visitors.

Question 10

How do I download my mods for free?

Accepted Answer

Free versions of my mods are available directly on my website, www.grumpymods.com (http://www.grumpymods.com/). VIP versions can be downloaded via my Patreon, the link to which is given in the corresponding articles.

Question 11

I found your mods on another site, are they safe?

Accepted Answer

Mods found on sites other than yours are illegal reuploads and may not be up to date.
Additionally, these files are not secure, as they may have been modified without my permission.
To ensure the security and up-to-date nature of your mods, I recommend that you always download the official version.

Question 12

How to access the different rooms on Discord?

Accepted Answer

My Discord server is part of Maïa Game's, because we collaborate on creating mods.
The rooms related to my mods are located after those of Maïa Game.
Please choose the appropriate salon based on your question.
