Pescado's mods are available in his Director's Cut. It won't affect your gameplay in any way or form, so you won't lose or gain anything just by having it. I recommend you get this mod now so you don't have to remember which mod needs it or not, and just leave it in your Downloads folder.

Many of Cyjon's mods require his Smarter EP Check mod.

If you don't want to sift through it all, a 150MB zipped archive of all of SimWardrobe's creations can be obtained here. There is a folder on Sim File Share with archived copies of his TS2 mods and objects.

By the looks of it, SimWardrobe's site is dead.

I will usually post directions on how to get to the mod, usually in the form of 'The Sims 2>Fixes>Seasons fixes', as an example. All links simply redirect to the main page.

SimWardrobe doesn't allow direct links to individual pages.

Some downloads may come with a 'Readme' or 'RTFM' text file - read that as well! Please don't come running to me complaining about how a mod broke your game because you didn't read the documentation, because it's not my fault that you didn't read instructions. If a mod gives you specific instructions on a special place to install it, or some 'Do's and Don'ts', read them.

If a download link here is broken, contact me.

This is mainly to list annoyance fixing mods that other people might benefit from.

While I do use a large majority of items listed here, I don't use all of them.
