We recently promised you a selection of NPCs for all occasions. If you’re interested in the method of controlling townie generation through the MC Command Center but don’t yet have your own base of 100 gorgeous sims, the huge list below is for you :)
We made great efforts to find beautiful, unique and well-crafted characters. We want these NPCs not only to enhance your game but also to inspire you with new storylines through their hobbies and appearances. Maybe one of your dynasty members will find their soulmate among them! All characters are available for free download and are in the public domain.
Let’s start with large sets of NPCs that are easy to download, add to your game and forget about the problem of generation.

How to Create a Custom Loading Screen in The Sims 4 with Sims 4 Mod Manager
Loading screens in The Sims 4 are a familiar sight: whether you’re launching the game, entering a saved game, or moving between lots, you’re sure to encounter them. While the default Sims 4 loading screens are iconic, the Sims modding community has created thousands of stunning custom loading screen options to personalize your game. If you haven’t found the perfect custom loading screen or want a unique design, it’s surprisingly easy to make your own custom loading screen for The Sims 4 – no advanced software or modding experience required.
In this Sims 4 tutorial, we’ll walk you through the simplest method for creating and installing a personalized loading screen. This way, you can add a touch of your personality – or your Sims families – every time you launch the game.
For this guide, we created a custom Sims 4 loading screen featuring a collage with photos of the Simmons family. Since TheSimsTree is a service for managing family trees in The Sims, our focus is on the stories of legacy families and their generations. A collage of beloved family moments perfectly reflects this Sims legacy challenge philosophy! The Simmons family featured here can also be explored through our website’s interactive online family tree.
Note: Using this method, you cannot change the Plumbob to a custom version – unless you install a separate custom Plumbob mod. By default, the loading screen will still display the original Sims 4 Plumbob.
Select an image in PNG or JPG format. For best results, your custom Sims 4 loading screen should match your monitor’s resolution (16:9 is standard), or be larger while keeping the right aspect ratio.
Leave some space in the center for the Plumbob overlay if you prefer.
Our photo looks like this:
You’ll need the Sims 4 Mod Manager tool by GameTimaDev. Download the Sims 4 Mod Manager here.
Navigate through the following path in the program:
Tools — Fun Tools — Custom Loading Screen
1. Click Select Image and upload your prepared image.
2. Decide whether to keep the Sims 4 tips text on your loading screen, or remove it for a cleaner look.
3. If you want to keep the game tips, choose a suitable color for the text.
You can use the color picker (“eyedropper”) tool for seamless integration with your image.
4. Click Create package file and choose a folder where your loading screen mod will be saved.
Copy the newly created .package file to the Mods folder:
Documents — Electronic Arts — The Sims 4 — Mods
Important: Only one loading screen file should be in your Mods folder for it to work correctly. Remove or delete other custom loading screens before activating the new one.
Here’s how our custom Sims 4 loading screen looks in-game:
We also installed a matching custom Plumbob mod separately. If you’d like to change your Sims 4 Plumbob, you can find Plumbob replacements here.
Loved our custom loading screen with cute family photos? You can easily recreate it in your game! Just insert your own images in any photo editor, save, and follow the steps above.

Best Plumbob Replacements for The Sims 4: Complete Guide & Collection
Looking to add a unique flair to your Sims 4 gameplay? Start by changing one of the most iconic features in the series — the overhead plumbob! Installing a custom plumbob mod is one of the easiest ways to refresh the look of your game. We’ve curated the best Sims 4 plumbob replacements for you to download and install today.
Before you start installing your chosen plumbob replacement, it’s crucial to carefully read the instructions provided by the creator. The thing is, there are two main methods for replacing plumbobs in The Sims 4, and they’re fundamentally different from each other.
The first option is more complex. It requires not only placing the .package file in your Mods folder, but also editing parameters in the Default.ini file, which is located in the game’s root folder. In this case, you’ll need to open the file in a text editor, find the [PlumbBob] section, and change the color values. Mod creators usually describe in detail exactly which values need to be entered.
The second option is simpler. Some plumbob replacements come as a ready-made file that you simply need to place in the game’s root folder, replacing the original one.
Important: Always make a backup copy of files before replacing or editing them! This will allow you to quickly revert everything if something goes wrong.
Each mod creator provides their own installation instructions, and following them is a guarantee that the plumbob replacement will work properly. Don’t skip this step!
If you’re happy with the classic plumbob design but just want to change its color, you can check out this video tutorial. It shows in detail how to easily change the color of overhead effects.
Ready to explore new looks for your sims? Here’s a collection of the best Sims 4 plumbob replacement mods:
This plumbob is perfect not only for creating maximum autumn vibes, but also for playing with fairies thanks to its design.
One of the most popular plumbob replacement options. Ideal if your UI is styled in a minimalist way.
If you don’t want to change the style and overall design of the plumbob, and simply want to switch the color to something more interesting and suitable for your game, this replacement is perfect.
More options can be found on the creator’s page.
