Top 10 Mods for BUILDERS
For players who love building in The Sims 4, mods can greatly enhance the building experience by adding new tools, objects, and features. Here are ten of the best mods for builders:
1. T.O.O.L. (Takes Objects Off Lot) by TwistedMexi
This powerful mod allows players to manipulate objects outside the lot boundaries, offering unparalleled control over object placement. It’s perfect for creating detailed environments and scenes that extend beyond the usual lot limits.
2. Better Build/Buy by TwistedMexi
An essential mod for any builder, it enhances the build/buy mode with several quality-of-life improvements. It includes features like unlocking all debug items, expanding the catalog, and offering a better search functionality.
3. OMSP Shelf by amoebae
The “One More Slot Please” shelf is a versatile tool that makes placing objects at precise heights much easier. It’s ideal for placing clutter items and decorations exactly where you want them.
4. No Blue Build/Buy Mode by Simler90
Removes the blue tint from the build/buy mode, allowing you to see colors more accurately as they will appear in live mode. This is especially helpful when choosing paint colors, wallpapers, and furniture.
5. Live Edit Objects Unlock by TwistedMexi
Unlocks a plethora of environment objects that are normally not available in build mode. These include trees, rocks, and other elements that can add realism and detail to your builds.
6. Red Shelf by Weerbesu
Similar to the OMSP Shelf, the Red Shelf allows for precise placement of objects. It’s particularly useful for placing items on shelves, counters, and other surfaces at custom heights.
7. MoveObjects On Cheat by EA
While technically not a mod, the MoveObjects On cheat is an invaluable tool for builders. It allows you to place objects in ways that the game wouldn’t normally permit, like overlapping items or placing objects off the grid.
8. More CAS Columns by weerbesu
Expands the number of columns in build/buy mode, making it easier to browse through the catalog of objects. This is especially useful if you have a lot of custom content installed.
9. Taller Stairs by Menaceman44
Adds the option to create taller stairs in build mode, which can be useful for more architectural variety. It allows for the creation of grand staircases and other design elements that are otherwise difficult to achieve.
10. Better Lighting in Build Mode by Luumia
Improves the lighting in build mode, making it easier to see the true colors and textures of your build. This mod is especially helpful when working with lighting fixtures and outdoor builds.
These mods enhance the building experience in The Sims 4, providing more creative freedom and precision. You can find these mods on popular modding websites such as Mod The Sims, The Sims Resource, or the creators’ Patreon pages.
