Fileroot.zip apk. Long-time players know that in The Sims, you don’t just create random characters for fun.

Before gamers started capitalizing on YouTube fame, the freedom to craft stories around Sims played a big part in keeping the franchise relevant since the year 2000.

From conceptualizing a vampire love story to a modern ugly duckling remake, The Sims have unlocked unlimited potential for virtual storytelling.

But whatever Oscar-winning plot is being developed for the small screen can get dragged into the trash without interesting characters. Your Sims can be generic, or they can be extraordinary, with just a few CC add-ons that help spin their development in a more compelling direction.

And what’s better than a few scars, bruises, and injuries to make a unique cast out of your Sims?

20. Scar 07

Before the liberating decade of the 2010s, people were on autopilot to cover up scars and other imperfections.

Now it’s not at all surprising to see them out in the open or in inspiring Elle articles.

Make your statement with this Scar 07 Set from Scarlett.

Wear plunging necklines for days to show off your newest beauty signature.

19. Bruised Face + Body Scars

One of life’s guilty pleasures is spending precious hours binge-watching Sims 4 stories.

But among the sea of common love stories and badly edited videos, it can be hard to find a worthy series.

Unless there’s an uber hot bad boy looking ready to wreck a Sim’s life.

While I’m a sucker for the tall, dark, and handsome visage, a bad boy backstory of bar nights then street fights is exactly what I live for.

To nail that bad boy archetype down to the last detail, add some realistic-looking bruises and scars. Then become the newest fantasy of teenagers 16 and below.

18. Assortment of Scars

Flawless beauty used to be the golden standard for most people.

Until the power of hashtags and social media exposed it for what it really is: flawed, unrealistic, and unapologetically toxic.

We can’t choose what kind of scars we can wear in real life. But this CC can provide your Sims that creative choice.

With 17 facial scars available, there’s no shortage of options to distinguish your Sims from the rest.

17. Face Scars N04

Ever since creators mastered the art of making Alpha CCs, it’s been much easier now to perform the ultimate act of vanity – creating a Simself.

The Simself challenge is a fun exercise to scour the internet for CCs that can capture how you actually look.

Even your little imperfections can be replicated in aesthetically rugged ways.

This pack from Pralinesims has 10 scar variations, compatible for all ages and genders because life doesn’t choose its victims.

16. Band-Aid

TS4 is a minefield of accidents. Where death awaits on command, or when Sims try to cook using free will.

It would take more than a few adhesive bandages to heal the physical and mental traumas we subject our Sims to… but it’s important to see modern heroes surviving small wounds.

Until, you know, your Sims get choked to death, stabbed in the gut, or shot in the head courtesy of the Extreme Violence Mod.

But before their impending doom, a few Band-Aids on the nose and knees can do just the trick to make a false sense of safety!

15. Black Eye

Ah yes, there’s nothing like a classic knuckle sandwich black eye to prove that your Sim has actually been in a fight and lived to tell the tale.

With the amount of dumb stuff Sims can interact with (including other Sims), it wouldn’t be surprising to see them beaten up or just dead on the sidewalk.

Sims have a terrifying life to lead.

But if they could survive the sadistic actions of players, then they should consider themselves lucky for going home with just one black eye.

14. Zuko’s Scar

Calling all diehard ATLA fans, Zuko stans, and Zutara shippers!

It’s time your Sims find their honor by embracing the iconic scar of our favorite Fire Lord, Zuko.

Although permanent scarring is not exactly Crown Prince material, it has been the crux of Zuko’s character throughout the series.

And a constant reminder that Ozail will forever be ATLA’s number one prick.

This CC will have you wishing Sims received the same character development as Zuko, while still looking hot with a burn scar.

13. Love Bites

There are bruises that we proudly show as a sign of hard work and determination.

Then there are bruises we desperately try to hide, hoping against hope that Cosmpolitan articles will have the answers we seek.

When love bites, it’s not like the sensual piercing of a vampire’s fangs as indicated by YA novels.

It’s more like watching a confused and hungry full-grown adult trying to suck a baby bottle for the first time.

When love bites, you don’t magically end up unscathed.

You leave with 14 different bruises all over your body because your Sims are too naughty for their own good.

12. Bruises from Crash

Seeing as TS4 doesn’t have any functional cars, there’s really no way for your Sims to get car crash injuries.

But of course, we live in a game of make-believe with outrageous storytelling that could put theater productions to shame.

We could say that it was a fine sunny day when your Sim was waiting at her usual spot for the carpool, when suddenly BAM!

A truck swerved and ran her over, but miraculously, she survived with only a few minor bruises on the face courtesy of this CC.

And because you have the wounds to show for it, your Sim’s boss won’t screw her over for trying to lie her way out of a Monday shift.

11. Patched Up Knees

Bruised and patched up knees isn’t my idea of a style must-have, but who knew that a bunch of bandages randomly smacked around the knees could be so… chic?

Of course, there’s the question of why a Sim would have knee injuries in the first place.

Was she in a brawl? A taekwondo fight? Did she accidentally bump into a table corner twice?

Is she a whiny teenage girl by day only to cover the fact that she’s a crime-fighting hero at night?

There’s a lot to speculate and more to fantasize with this crude collection of Band-Aids, and that’s why it’s a great CC set to have.

10. Harry Potter’s Scar

There aren’t a lot of scars in pop culture that had as much impact as Harry Potter’s lightning bolt scar.

Drunk or sober, a lot of fans had no qualms in getting this magic mark permanently tattooed on their forehead. So why should your Sim?

Consider yourself lucky that no Dark Lords and Avada Kedavra spells are needed for this scar to amaze.

9. Scar 09

Although scars highlight a piece of our lives, I’m not particularly keen on learning why a Sim has his or her face almost cut wide open.

We’ve seen some pretty okay scars in terms of severity, but this CC from Scarlett is on a whole new level.

I can only describe its possible origin as The Girl with a Box Cutter Swinging Blindly at a Ghost, which sounds about accurate.

This CC pack has editable intensity as well as compatibility for adult male and female Sims.

8. Face Bandages

Unless you have the Brawl Mod enabled, I would understand the need for these many face bandages.

But if you think bandages can be used as regular accessories, then my 10-year-old self would agree with you.

I used to think bandaging a non-existent wound on my fingers or the back of my hand was cool.

Until 5th graders bully you for being a fake resulting in actual injuries showing up.

Being young and stupid has its perks and disasters. But don’t let that stop you from wearing these bandages like a model on a runway!

7. Face Scars

Living in the era of filters, it’s easy to make someone believe that thousands of twenty-something influencers have unblemished skin.

Unless they can afford a derma team on demand or have customizable skin like the Sims, it’s highly unlikely that many survived acne scars.

Facial scars might be an acquired taste for your Sim’s skin detail, but a few cuts on the cheek or lip can trump superficial beauty at any time.

6. Lightning Scars

Scars remind us of funny moments, of past wrongs, and battles fought.

In this case, it reminds us of our Sims getting struck by lightning because they were dumb enough to go out during a storm.

Death by lightning is an agonizing way to go. But surviving it can give you one hell of an awesome scar.

Thanks to Nell, you can now commemorate your near-death experience with spiderweb-like scars that you can place all over your Sim’s body.

Even though becoming a lightning bender is a better outcome, a lightning scar can do just fine for now. Delta hmi usb driver.

5. Body Hickeys and Nail Scratches

There are good WooHoos and bad WooHoos. But how can you tell the difference?

Ever since The Sims 2 introduced the wonders of WooHooing, I’ve been unhealthily obsessed with finding out what happens under the sheets.

But even though we now have mods to see uncensored sexy times, the end is always the same: exhausted Sims looking as if they didn’t just make literal sparks fly.

With all that shaking, it’s physically impossible for both Sims to simply leave in one piece.

Hopefully this CC from Nell can fill in the gaps and deliver a more satisfying… yeah.

4. Noir Stitches

It’s common sense that makeup is a Halloween essential.

A Joker costume without the iconic ear-to-ear lipstick is just your typical sad clown at a children’s birthday party.

A witch getup without an exaggerated smokey eye is just Professor Minerva McGonagall, not the Wicked Witch of the West.

But a Sim with full-body Noir Stitches? No badass introductions are needed.

Style your Sim’s spooky ensemble with this CC and become the Queen of the Night in no time.

3. Cat’s Scratches

Cats rule the Internet.

Even if they have attitude problems and are probably plotting bloody murder behind those beautiful eyes, cats have an online army that could survive the nine circles of hell.

Cat owners are just fascinated with them, despite the fact that their love is often reciprocated in unprovoked scratches.

This makes them perfect pets for Sims, who are beings with inhumanly high pain tolerance.

If your Sims are adopting a stray or are currently worshipping the devil’s spawns, then this CC from Nell is a familiar sight.

2. Scars N7

Everyone has a different concept of beauty.

Some drool at six-pack abs, paper thin waistlines, and thigh gaps.

Some spend hours painting their face with concealer and makeup like it’s the Renaissance.

While some are enlightened enough to admire this CC and the rawness it exudes from start to end.

Scars N7 has 10 more versions to prove to you that imperfections can be beautiful if you give it a chance to shine.

1. Mark of the Wolf

At the top of the pack is taraab’s Mark of the Wolf!

Made in ferocious detail, this CC will make you question how a Sim can survive a wolf scratch that gouged out an eye.

But for whatever reason you plan to use this mark, you’ll be clawing for more than the 2 versions included in this collection.

Savage and wicked, the Mark of the Wolf is imprinted as arguably the best scar CC in the game!

We play EA’s Sims 4 to experience a detailed simulation of human life.

It’s fun to watch the wacky situations our sim counterparts get themselves into… or the situations we force onto them for our amusement.

But The Sims contrasts substantially with human life in its cartoonish nature. Everything is funny, absurd, and sims just take everything as lightly as possible. For them, life is simple.

Well not anymore! Thanks to the tireless work of some amazing modders, we can re-introduce some of the more nuanced aspects of human life into the game, increasing the simulation’s complexity and often making everything just a little bit darker, grittier… more real.

For anyone interested in making their Sims experience as real as it can be, here are the some awesome mods for increased realism.

20. Realistic Reactions

Have you ever been cheated on?

Hopefully not, but let me tell you it isn’t chill.

For this reason I always found it unrealistic that sims would just get angry at their cheating spouse for a little bit before returning to normal, at least whenever infidelity was actually discovered.

Creator Scaldwellhu agrees. And they made a mod to make cheating as big a deal as it usually is in real life.

Now couples will be devastated by the event, and it’ll take a lot of work to get things back in order. Even the kids will feel upset when their parents are in this situation!

19. Miscarriage Chance

Pregnancy is a beautiful process. But sometimes there are complications, and that’s just a fact of life.

This mod by LittleMsSam introduces a slight chance that one morning, a pregnant Sim may wake up with cramps and abdominal pain, prompting them to go to the hospital.

While sometimes they’ll come back with a healthy baby and make everyone in the household relieved, more often than not they’ll return with dark news despite the doctor’s best efforts.

It’s sad, it’s dark, and it’s incredibly realistic.

Now on the flip side, if you want pregnancy custom content that’s a bit more light-hearted take a peek at our pregnancy mods list. Not as much realism, but a whole lotta fun in there.

18. Pregnancy Overhaul Mod

Creator LittleMsSam doesn’t just want to put a damper on your reproductive fun.

She just strives for realism, which we can find in her Pregnancy Overhaul Mod.

Not only does it replace the absurd pregnant belly size found in vanilla for something more anatomically correct, but it removes the exaggerated pregnant walking animation as well.

It also lets expecting sims continue practicing yoga, swimming, and other such activities up to the beginning of their third trimester, as is normal for would-be-moms in real life(which I had to Google to confirm, I mean I’ve never been pregnant so…)

17. Risky Woohoo & Try For Baby Chances

Normally you can actively choose whether you want a sim to have safe Woohoo with a partner, or outright try for a baby and get them pregnant.

But that’s not quite how it works in real life.

Sims 4 Domestic Violence Mod Download

Modder PolarBearSims came up with some tweaks to make the Woohoo experience more immersive by replacing it with Risky Woohoo, and implementing a complex fertility system affecting all sims.

Depending on their fertility levels, location of the encounter, and some other factors, some sims will have more of a chance of becoming pregnant accidentally than others. Sims may also become infertile, requiring them to get fertility treatments to actually get pregnant. If that isn’t real, I don’t know what is.

16. More Best Friends

I’ve never been able to give a definitive answer when someone asks who my best friend is.

I would never be able to pick just one. They’re all key parts of my life!

Thanks to creator LittleMsSam, your sims won’t have to pick just one either.

Now the “become best friends” interaction will have a 30-minute cooldown rather than a one-time use, allowing you to create inseparable squads of Sim besties.

15. SNB – Sim National Bank

The way money and bills work in The Sims 4 is pretty basic for a game made for simulating human life.

Sim National Bank by SimRealist is an in-depth mod that endeavors to overhaul the financial system in TS4, letting sims manage bank accounts, take out loans, pay their bills individually, and so on.

Quite honestly, this is one of the most realism-enhancing mods I’ve ever seen.

But only the most hardcore players will actually have fun introducing accounting into their sim lives, which is why I don’t place it higher in this ranking.

But let it be known, this mod is exceptionally realistic.

14. Personality Please!

Sims are notoriously less complicated than humans. They take life one day at a time and often choose what feels right in the moment, rather than what makes sense in the long run.

Personality Please! by PolarBearSims is a mostly romance-centric rework that makes Sims considerably less promiscuous by making traits, aspirations, and past events greatly affect their relationships with other sims.

Now they’ll actually need to be compatible if you want them to get down and dirty.

Other than that, the mod also gives cats and dogs more varied personalities, and sims can learn traits and choose careers just from having deep conversations with others. How cool!

13. Automatic Beards

Ever since I turned 14 years old, my ever-growing beard has been an important part of my life.

Every morning I decide whether or not to shave, and the choice has important ramifications on how my life plays out. The same should be true of our digital friends.

This mod makes sim beards grow automatically over time, requiring constant shaving. Unless you want your sim to become Gandalf the Grey, that is.

12. SimDa Dating App

Dating and finding partners is astoundingly easy in Sims 4 compared to real life. Which is why we needed dating apps, and they don’t – until now.

The SimDa Dating App by LittleMsSam works a lot like a streamlined version of Tinder, allowing your sims to schedule meetings, set up blind dates, or simply call somebody over for a one night stand.

Each of these interactions has its own interesting features and possibilities.

You can start relationships, have some fun… and even get someone pregnant by accident. Just like real life!

11. The Explore Mod

While there’s a lot of places to visit and activities to enjoy in The Sims 4, there’s always room for some improvement.

And more autonomy is always good.

The Explore Mod by KawaiiStacie lets your Sims go out and explore the world autonomously, either alone or with friends.

They’ll have adventures, gain skills, meet people, and maybe even change their world view!

This mod adds several entertaining activities like gambling, getting your nails done, doing temporary work for an extra buck, and even going out to get takeout if you’re too lazy to cook. All very realistic and very immersive.

10. Height Slider

One of the most frustrating and unrealistic things in the game is how every sim is exactly the same height as others of the same age group.

Well thanks to this mod by creator Luumia, you’ll be able to give your sims different heights through a slider in CAS.

Everything else will, of course, scale proportionately to height.

As a bonus, Luumia included a hip shape slider and neck length variation for even more Sim variety.

9. Extreme Violence

The world is a very violent place, and even peaceful suburban areas like see their fair share of violence from time to time.

Extreme Violence by Sacrificial Mods adds the possibility for wrongdoing sims to attack others in a wide variety of ways.

Shooting them with machine guns, cracking their necks, chopping them up with a machete, and even crushing their skulls by sitting on them are only some examples.

I mean, I guess it’s realistic?

Not only does it add the acts in themselves, but a bunch of added functionality revolving around them, like the possibility for sims to acquire the Serial Killer trait, or paying a gang to off someone your Sim doesn’t like. Yikes!

8. Meaningful Stories

Sims don’t take life too seriously, and they’re incredibly fickle.

They may be completely devastated by the death of their pet one moment, then ecstatic because they watched a good movie the next with no in-between.

This mod by Roburky reworks the mood and emotion systems to make them more nuanced and realistic.

A depressed sim will need time and help from their friends to get out of a rut, and something like a first kiss will make them feel happy like never before.

Transitions between emotions also take time, and there are transitional periods when they’re feeling a bit of everything.

7. Passionate Romance

The romance system in vanilla TS4 is pretty basic.

You can flirt, go on dates, Woohoo and get married, but it never really feels like a relationship.

Passionate Romance by Sacrificial Mods improved this greatly by adding several new interactions like snuggling, hugging romantically, taking a romantic selfie, and even grabbing each other’s butts like they used to in TS2.

6. After School Activities

Going to school has never been just about learning history or science.

It’s also about making friends, acquiring skills, and finding yourself.

With this add-on by amazing creator KawaiiStacie you can add all these things. It endeavors to flesh-out educational experiences by adding over 30 after-school programs for children and teens.

Examples include the Anime Club, the Yoga Club, band, and basketball.

Sims partaking in these activities will learn skills, make friends, gain motives, and may even apply for scholarships depending on their performance throughout their school life.

5. Wicked Whims (NSFW)

If there’s something humans never get tired of, it’s sex. We love it, and so should our Sims if we’re to have a realistic experience in-game.

Wicked Whims goes a long way to develop everything sex-related in TS4, from turning the Woohoo interaction incredibly graphic to giving female Sims a fully-functional menstrual cycle complete with mood swings, cramps, varying fertility and a need for pads and tampons.

This one goes deep.

It even introduces contagious STDs! Now if that isn’t seriously realistic, I really don’t know what is.

4. Basemental Drugs

Alcohol and other drugs have been a reality of life since time immemorial, and that’s not about to change anytime soon.

Basemental Drugs endeavors to introduce this reality of human life into TS4. It lets your sim pals acquire, consume, and sell alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, and many other mind-altering substances.

Sims engaging in these activities may become addicted, have problems with the law, get arrested, and even go to rehab… and that’s only the tip of the iceberg.

It’s not pretty, but it is the real world.

3. Basemental Gangs

If you like Basemental Drugs, the Basemental Gangs expansion is sure to pique your interest.

It fleshes out the entire drug dealing aspect of the mod, allowing you to create a criminal empire and become the leader of one of four gangs.

Again, dark but quite brutally realistic.

You’ll have underlings, earn loads of blood money, and there’s even an entire skill system to become a better thug. It may not be wholesome, but it sure as hell is realistic.

If you’ve ever wanted a little more GTA in your Sims experience, this mod is the ultimate crossover.

2. Life’s Tragedies

As you may have realized by now, not everything is glitter and candy.

There are tragic and difficult moments in everyone’s lives. And they can arrive when you least expect them.

Life’s Tragedies by Sacrificial Mods adds a wide variety of possible tragedies that may befall your Sim or NPCs close to them. Like randomly being run over by a car, getting jumped by a homicidal maniac, or even contracting a life-threatening disease they’ll need surgery to overcome.

It may seem a bit intense, but don’t worry. You can control how often these tragedies happen, so you can either turn your Sim’s life into a horror story or just inject a tiny bit of dark realism into your game.

This will be absolutely hilarious, devastatingly upsetting, or some kind of in-between, depending what you’re looking for.

Just note the download page includes a lot of other mods from this creator, so look towards the lower part of the screen for their “Life’s Tragedies” download file. It does get updated from time-to-time so if you want the absolute newest version definitely grab it from the link above.

1. Slice of Life

Easily the most comprehensive and complete realism overhaul for The Sims 4 is Slice of Life by KawaiiStacie.

It’s an extensive mod that touches almost every aspect of life in the game.

Your sims get visible emotions, recurring memories of past events that’ll affect their moods, a complex fitness system, and reactions to their own appearance. Among many other things!

One of the most impressive features of the mod is giving every single sim a personality based on the Myers-Briggs 16 personalities test, which affects the way they behave and interact with other sims to a great extent.

It also adds many features we’ve already seen in previous mods such as functional alcohol, serious sickness, and a complex menstrual cycle, all in a single polished CC pack affecting every sim in your world, including NPCs.

This is truly the ultimate realism mod for The Sims 4, hands down.

If you need a one-stop shop realism mod then give this a try before anything else. You’ll be surprised how much it offers.
