I Downloaded Alpha Custom Content for The Sims 4

I'm gonna be honest you guys I'm ready for a change you know I've always been that girl that only uses Maxis match custom content but you know what it's April and I'm ready for a new year and a new me so today we're gonna go and download some alpha custom content now if you don't know what that means essentially I mostly and only use Maxis match CC which is like that clay sort of style that when it looks like the game so here's it look like what we already have in the sims 4 but there's a whole other world out there of alpha custom content a world that I haven't really touched I mean back in the day before Maxis match is really a thing we used a lot of alpha CC I mean we're talking like 2016 15 14 like the early days of the same is for 16 is a stretch so there are a couple videos on my channel from years ago when there wasn't really much Max's match CC around so a lot of the custom content we had back then was like conversions of sims 3 CC which obviously had a whole different texture to it and everything so today we're gonna delve deep into the world of the sims resource and Alfa custom content now I kid you not I paid for the sims resource premium because I was like I'm I will drop the $4 I am NOT gonna sit here and deal with your ads because I while this website is a great collection of custom content oh my god is it cursed there there are so many ads you have to like wait 10 seconds while watching the ads on the page like with the browser active to download things I mean it just it's a nightmare to download Stacey and I want to be grabbing all kinds of stuff left and right so I paid for the premium version it remind me to cancel it after this video because I don't I don't use that much CC I don't intend to pay for it every month just just for today all right we're ready to go hang on sorry clothes my clothes my run at tabs so this is embarrassing oh it's on there's this subreddit for animal crossing turnip prices and people that have high turnip prices post on there and sometimes invite you to their Island so that you can sell your turnips on their Island for a higher price I went to a stranger's Island in Animal Crossing today I'm not kidding you know what work this is a CC video we're not talking about animal crossing right now but before we get started we need to do something really fast I'm just gonna drop that in trash max this match is dead okay it's alpha time alright but folks we're ready go I don't even know where to begin should we look at like the most popular hairstyle something we got to grab a bunch of stuff if we're gonna play with Alfa Cece we're gonna play with Alfa CC so let's like maybe filter by oh there's so many things help can we filter by like featured release date how about this year 2020 what do we got okay so here's the thing we're gonna have to pop around through some classic creators because I you know what I have been around for a while I may have not used alpha CC for a while but I do know many of these people's names a lot of them doing it for years so like you know we're talking like Nightcrawler here Leah Lilith the all of these people are our names that I've recognized for a long time so so we're gonna browse their pages probably I mean this hairstyle amazing I will literally just download everything on this main features page from from this year because you know what there is everything right with all of them they're all beautiful I'm so excited I want oh my God look at this see here's the thing Max's match trash I'm kidding I'm kidding I didn't even know that there was that much max it's not just you see on the cemetery source I never really use the sims resource because a lot of it is alpha CC so in the past I've downloaded most of my stuff from tumblr but these are a lot of cute things I mean I may have learned something today you know I was trying to make an April first video but um maybe I'll just save this page for later look how cute these are oh my god I don't even know where to begin with this stuff like we got it we have to get it all we have to get shoes and clothes I mean how are we how are we gonna pull this off accessories like earrings oh my god we really have our work cut out for us today huh I hope I don't have done with the same thing twice by accident I wouldn't put it past myself to do that yeah we could just like filter through the homepage a little bit you know see what's featured on here there's even build CC but I don't think I'm ready for that yet whoa oh my god this person s clothes I used to love their stuff this is like a walk down memory lane for me and a lot of you guys still use this stuff like every day I haven't I haven't seen a lot of these things and a lot of these people in a long time so this is kind of exciting for me oh there's default eye replacements and stuff oh I haven't used IRA placements in so long I don't then these are defaults I think these are probably just like accessory eye replacements but they're pretty we need one of those oh we need eyebrows - I didn't even think about that oh we really have so much work to do okay we have to download so many things you know else we could get there are a lot of really beautiful alpha CC wedding dresses and we haven't gotten to use a lot of those things in a very long time so this is probably our chance no I like these oh these are pretty okay oh and nails oh my god I you know what nail polish is for real a thing that I would love to have in the same is for like just in the game like they should add they added piercings more like facial piercings why don't we have nail polish like how fun would that be I mean they did that whole like vanity table thing with vintage glamour stuff if they had added a way to paint your Sims nails instead of just give you like a random makeup how nice would that have been oh these are really nice eyebrows okay we'll get those I don't know how many things I need to grab and here's the thing because I'm just kind of like downloading at random all willy-nilly like this I'm gonna forget what I've got so when we go into game it's gonna be like a fun surprise you know like what did she download what did she fairy wings whoa wait these are pretty eyes too I still know if their default replacements or not we need to get a CC skin also I mean if we're going alpha we're going alpha oh you're speaking of skin tones here we go I don't know the difference I don't how do you know which one is best I guess it's preference but they all of these are the same to me I don't know it's hard to tell just by looking at one picture you kind of need to like see it in-game to find out should I just grab like all of us I guess we have like there's like a male version a female version and a child version maybe I guess we'll find out I'll take them all oh well that's a pretty necklace and the TR okay I swear we'll go different crater now because I'm just gonna get like everything from this one person that is not a good idea okay does someone want to tell me why it autofills fortnight when I try and search something what why does it autofill for at night okay let's find out what's on fortnight about this dinghy oh wait it's still searching oh I was gonna say is there no fortnight on the super resource but it's okay there is there is fortnight on the sames resource thank God you know what would we do without fortnight I went to Sims 3 by accident help we're going to Sims 4 I want to grab a bunch of makeup screaming mustard I used to love their stuff too look at how realistic some of this CC looks it's kind of fun okay we could use some eye shadow to eye I haven't gotten any of that yet highlighter more highlighter we got to get all of the the options here because we want to be able to get like face pearls these look cool see I want to cover all of our bases no I actually really like this eye liner a lot I don't have any I don't have any eyelash so we gotta use eye lashes too because I don't have any of those remind me so that we get all of those things also look how pretty this sim looks okay I've blushed highlight eyeshadow eyeliner lipsticks I mean I just don't know what lipsticks I've actually got here because I've just sort of been like getting random ones so I see a thumbnail I like and I'm like yeah download it you know we'll just see how it goes I like this picture this is pretty freckles oh yes very good very good I'm actually really excited to go into him and see all this stuff we should look at clothing now because that we have what we got makeup we got the skins in the eyes we have a couple hairs I want to get more hairs but we can we'll jump around a bit I don't even know where to begin with clothes I mean there are so many options like 3-1 dresses pants tops like I'm looking at the most popular things that have been downloaded this year but we could probably look at like the release date of this year to filter by downloads I'm confused as to how this works because this came out in 2015 so maybe the filter thing I'm just doing it wrong but I used to love this shirt I had this in my game I mean I gave this to my legacy founder this shirt also had in my game we should go through this person's page this person also was obsessed oh we've got a few people to go through here but I used to have like every single thing this person ever made I'm not kidding I used to for real download like everything I might just go and grab a bunch more the stuff over here because they've got shoes they've got this down oh my god we can make a wedding look this is the kind of thing I don't usually get that excited about cast but it is kind of fun to get like a ton of new CC and it is so easy to download CC from this website well when you've paid for premium when you haven't paid for premium it's a nightmare you guys don't understand the kind of ad nightmare garbage we'd be looking at if we didn't have premium and you have to wait 10 seconds to download things but like I will I will pay my dues oh that's a cute dress okay I'm for real just gonna get like all this stuff I I said what I said and I meant it no look at these boots oh good and obviously like some of the classics like this sweater dress had that this top had that in my game for real this dress still have in my game well I deleted all my mods but up until this morning still had in my game also this top I was obsessed with I had so many recolors of it I'm pretty sure I probably still have it in my game to be honest and and this little t-shirt dress oh my god this is amazing this one too I know for a fact I still have this in my game also this shirt I kid you not Charlotte my 100 baby challenge found her four years ago was wearing this in this swatch I think I had this too I recognize this swatch oh okay this is really exciting look at this person stuff I the thumbnails they have made are we really playing The Sims 4 right now or is this just I mean it looks like real life and it looks like art so those are fun heels oh my god this dress I okay you show me a wedding dress I'm about to start crying I love this so much okay I also know for a fact I had this shirt I'm not kidding I feel like I had these heels too you know I feel like I died out I made a video on this kind of thing last year and I know I downloaded a lot of this stuff last year too but obviously I don't really have those things in my game anymore so hopefully this person used to make all kinds of makeup and it looks like they still do which is very exciting Oh fun heart earrings oh my god and more eyebrows oh we need to get ourselves some more I think we only have like two oh look at that outfit oh my god we should make a sims 3 CC shopping video sometime soon because oh that would be the dream would anybody even be do you guys even still play the sims 3 I know that a lot of you still do but I know for a fact majority if you don't but you guys I don't know if you know this about me but I am a sims 3 stand yeah I am obsessed with that game still AM I love the sims 3 I think about the sims 3 all the time it is the best thing that has ever happened to me okay this person how do you make things this well I know these are all really old items like this came out in late 2016 but still I don't even I used to have these in my game I know that for a fact and this I don't know who makes alpha CC now like I don't I'm not even super involved with the like max its mash CC seen anymore like I don't really use much custom content most of my gameplay I do vanilla it was like the exception of like a default scan in like MC command center I'm playing a legacy challenge on twitch right now and I take out my mods folder when I load up that safe so like I don't really know much about about who's doing what with the custom content in the present day MJ 95 was like my favorite place in the entire world I was obsessed with this person I used to download like every pair of shoes they ever made and then I stopped using CC shoes altogether like when I was slowly phasing out from using custom content I deleted all my CC shoes at once and I was like yeah I'm done for some reason I don't know I just I don't really use how much CC anymore and I kind of like slowly got rid of shoes but it was a sad day when I deleted all of me my Madlen custom content I'm sure if I go by Dallas we can see some of the classics okay no still like these heels had these was obsessed every single one of my Sims wore these back then also these had them these had them mean this is kind of fun for me I'm gonna be honest I know many of you probably don't care but it's this really is a walk down memory lane and it's a time that I need right now oh these these were the ones oh my god every single one of my Sims had these also I use these all the time and these like bow looking ones were a favorite of mine also these shoe is my stim self used to wear these shoes no these oh my god I really why did I have so many heels I literally don't wear heels in real life I own one pair and I'd have wore and then like two times ever for special events I I was obsessed not at least my Sims looked good you know I have much addresses that I'll have any jeans yet so if like we should grab some some jeans here Oh fancy pants little black skirts Oh see that's covering all the bases there you know who we should go check out is this person I was obsessed still am honestly I download a lot of their things still to this day and I don't even tell all that much see see they make a lot of good custom content maybe we should just go through and download like everything look how cute this dress is okay we found our home everybody the store we need to be well we can just get all of our CC clothes from right here I genuinely am obsessed with these jeans this has made my day I think I have this installed in my game like a bodysuit that'll be useful also this tank top is so good okay this is I'm having so much fun I think I'm almost done and we can go load up our game in this and obviously I didn't get any like kids cc or anything but to download an entire mods folder worth of all this shirt might be my favorite thing I've seen today that is so pretty also I used to have this in my game that I gives like all my Sims my stem cell for this shirt my same self also wore this shirt alright last but not least I downloaded a ton of stuff cut my downloads folder right here how many things did we get a hundred and sixty three files you know that's not bad alright okay unrelated to this custom content shopping trip my entire PC just crashed started being super laggy and weird that's happened before last week I'm kind of scared about it but that happened and now my game keeps crashing when I try and open it and I I think that is related to the CC shopping trip so today we're gonna go on a little walk and we're gonna try and figure out what's causing that crash I'll show you guys how to narrow it down it's kind of time-consuming and annoying but it helps also I tried mod Conklin sector that program doesn't work for this and nothing came up so so we're gonna try the half-and-half method and by that I mean for some reason my game won't load with all of this CC in it so we're gonna take half of it out and see if it's in that half and then we're gonna keep narrowing it down by half until we find an item that's causing the problem so pretty Syria my desktop background to everything's just going wrong right now alright so half of it out let's try again this is farther than I got before it appears to be loading for a long time we're in okay so that half is safe alright I made a new folder called safe and we know that all of these things are not the problem and so we can put them in there now we come back like I said take another half of these and we try again with that half and then we just keep narrowing it down until we know what's causing the problem does that make sense it's a learning experience you know I did download a lot of old custom content so that could be the problem we got farther again alright so you're fine too okay I still haven't found the problem and we are getting so close to the end of the wire here I mean look at this if it's not one of these three I'm gonna be really upset I don't understand taking them all out slowly work just fine putting them all back in together at once game crashes what's the problem okay you know what there was no culprit file date but for some reason when I put them all together in at once the game crashes I don't understand we'll just do it in two halves why use Maxis match so you see oh my god I'm starting to think it wasn't worth April Fool's joke it was an April Fool's joke I just wanted to play with alpha see see I'm not actually switching I don't really use cc in general I just wanted to play and now all of this stress for what for what it's fine at least we can play now I don't want a personality I'm sorry I'm not interested in that Sawyer McWilliams okay okay I'll admit that I'm a little bit confused just give me a sim wait bring that girl back yeah cheese hair okay well we have a bunch of stuff just not all together oh oh that's what the difference is one of the skins comes with eyebrows it's like what is that if the skin has eyebrows on it okay I understand Oh also like to skin tones I didn't know that when I downloaded it well that is not diverse this is not going how I wanted it to look we only got three hairs install bright now but at least they're pretty look at the color swatches look at the pale pink this is my dream my actual absolute dream the pale purple oh the pastel gods have blessed us on this day yeah we don't have like any makeup installed right now either what is going on at least we have a bunch of clothes you know oh that looks good on her oh we have so many pretty things I love getting new Cece wait that looks good too we should maybe give her some pants if we're gonna try and try out this custom content we got to do it the right way with the stripy jeans that I loved so much wait this looks hang on hang on folks this outfit these jeans and this shirt together there's a peach yes sir that's kind of the move wait this one has more fun swatches oh look at those colors oh this is exciting I'm having so much fun I think this is like the more Maxis nagy version so it's trash trash but at least we have a bunch of CC to look at okay I love getting CC shoes I'm not really good at shoes in real life look at how high those heels are Oh magical I have I'm not super well-versed in shoes in real life I will admit but my sims let me tell you and the nails to look okay honestly nail polish makes a huge difference on your sims it's just small detail but it's nice like having your nails done and have bracelets on and stuff I just I don't I don't do that in real life I like it in the same it's a nice touch I might start using it more often that's that's a custom constant item that I can get behind for real even in the save zone use much CC in also there are a lot of really fun CC accessories like we just there aren't that many accessory items I don't know about these things all together by the way but there aren't that many accessory items in the sims 4 like in the game and and turning to CC for this is a very useful option it really is pretty there is a lot of nice stuff in this game let's go and look at the other half I didn't look at the dresses we have to go back I think it happened half like this is so weird why doesn't it all work when it's all together in my game the game can't handle 150 pieces of alpha CC I have many hundreds of maxes match CC that's the thing with this stuff it the game does not like it very much oh we should get my sim cell for this well to be honest this woman kind of looks like my sim self maybe we could just keep her yeah let's just keep her very pale very fitting I wouldn't necessarily compare any of these hairstyles to my own but you know what I can have long luscious hair if I want oh here we go the wedding dress I liked so much oh my god okay that that is beautiful like for real genuinely stunning in that color - is that sequence oh my lord this makes me so happy and this one that looks good on her obviously we got we have so many options like I said I still have both of these in my game regularly I like this one - that's nice also this is adorable I love the sweater tied on to it and there's some kind of fun swatches - like the white t-shirt dress and a pink sweater alright you take that necklace off right now get rid of that disgraceful this dress I was so excited about this option look at it oh it's beautiful I love a nice ball gown let me tell you and a nice sweater dress look at this one oh this makes me so happy I'm such a baby also this one's adorable okay as soon as you offer in yellow I mean come on alright now look at the other half honestly the fact that I have to do this it's absolutely ridiculous alright those can go into that folder we'll grab all of these looks like some more accessory type stuff see we can't even see all that we downloaded all at once this is just this video is turning into a disaster this is what I get for trying to make a joke alright here we go here's some more hairstyles I where I downloaded more than just these but maybe maybe I didn't I like the fun colors they have on them all like the pastels looks so good that's one thing that I wish we had more of and in Max's match stuff because a lot of times with the CC that I use at least I don't use that many recolors so I only ever have EA's hair colors in game and like even the pastel default colors are not good like compared to this the like regular default pastel purpley color I mean that's horrible horrible well we got some better brows in this batch okay good we needed that but look some of these come with so many swatches this hair has so many swatches and some of the Alpha hairs are also so long we don't really have that much of this kind of thing with Max's match CC or just in the game in general I like this one I used to have this one a long time ago back in the day or at least something similar also I'm pretty sure I used to have this or something very similar back in the day oh this is bringing back memories you guys I like the low ponytail look at some of the fun swatches look at that oh no I like this one a lot that's cool that's really cool this is a really good hair too oh this is making me happy I wish in real life that my hair looks like this but I don't I'm not good enough at like styling my hair and I also cut it super short because I feel more comfortable so I could never pull this off but like if I could this is what I would like to look like I could do this oh wait I don't know how she did that little baby bun back there I also I don't know if my hair is long enough to pull that off like when you think about like this Pete I don't not sure it would look but you know it is right now maybe because I haven't had it cut in a while because we're hanging out at home you know but see this is a learning experience in many ways I'm learning how to style my real-life hair from this okay this shirt brings back some memories for sure my stem cell fused to where they if we can make my sim self wait let's get her oh my god my mom oh this is the one that my mom made of me this is the one that I made of me oh we can absolutely pull this off right do we have any makeup I don't really wear much makeup but I'll put on some makeup for this we have a ton of new like highlighter and stuff I never wear lipstick I don't know how to pull off lipstick I have little baby lips like for real baby lips like I don't have a lip so I don't know how to do this but my sim self she can wear lipstick if she wants I like these ones they're kind of frosty it's pretty wow that cut crease no I kind of like that what what accessories do we have right now pearls I can be a beauty guru we can get some little earrings I don't really wear them that much jewelry but it's okay I'll put on something fancy for you guys look how pretty that is it's so shiny beautiful I like these a lot though I don't have that many piercings in real life but anyway I would wear this shirt for real you know I would a yellow stripe t-shirt I have like four of them also I would wear this in real life I don't have this but I like it these things are also cute for a night now this is what I need this is my sim self right here you know I wish I had pants like this I think these are pretty when I see people wearing stuff like this like sort of patterned pants I don't own any of those I just wear jeans everyday I'm really you guys might think I'm being like self-deprecating and joking around I'm being serious I'm being open and honest with you all about the truth I'm wearing my own merch right now and that's this is my life so hopefully I would wear this if we're gonna be if we're gonna be realistic here I mean it's modest it covers everything not tank tops like that that's what I'm into high neck you know I would wear this and this this is a cute outfit I think this one's the most likely for me to wear out of all these options you know the green sweater like it that's the move oh we have so many shoes this time okay this is big take those socks off look I love so many of these I got I got a pick a favorite I think right at least the same person made all of them so I can pick a favorite it's not rude like I think that the sneaker type stuff is the most realistic but as far as like actual favorite shoes go I like these a lot I also really like these I always have I used to have these in my game I still like them a lot I also used to give these to my Sims all the time because they had a bunch of colors that were kind of fun but look at how tall these heels are I could never in real life I like I said earlier I only own like one pair of heels and that's not me trying to be relatable I just I prefer to wear flats it's not as scary although I do think there are a lot of very beautiful shoes as you can see as evidenced by this game honestly this has been very fun I really enjoyed this I like custom content shopping and honestly I like Alpha CC I know it's like kind of a like ooh seems he hates alpha ice match Queen oh and a lot of times people are always like why do you hate Elvis they see so much killing what's wrong with it that's not that's not what I'm trying I'm not that's not what I mean I just personally prefer to use masks myself in my game because honestly I think it's kind of weird when you have like your sims walking around looking great with all their alpha hairs and makeup and accessories and then like Bella goth rolls up in her little clay hair nightmare and then they just don't look like you're playing the same game I don't like it when my sims look like the Townies I wanted all to kind of match and feel like one cohesive game and that's just a personal preference I don't care what CC you use live your dream like I I think it's beautiful I love all the hairs that I downloaded I just I don't think I'm gonna use them every day game play I also just don't use CC in general so like you know know whatever but again I just I don't like it when when Bella goth and and you know Eliza pancakes roll up looking stupid compared to my beautiful alpha decked out Sims like it just it doesn't match and I don't I don't like that personally so again I don't care what CC you use although I will link my CC fines blog if you're interested in the CC that I actually do use a lot of people use that long to find custom content I've got a bunch all the hairs and things I read blog everything I download over there I have not CC shopped in a few months I will admit except for today so I guess you could call us an April Fool's joke but it was more just me hanging out and trying to find some things to look at because I was curious and I wanted to play it wasn't even a prank it was just a honestly like a nostalgia trip like that's what it turned into but I'm gonna go so please make sure to leave a like and comment and subscribe and do all those 22 things and in case you guys didn't know I post new videos every single day and so I will see you all tomorrow bye everybody I had fun did you have fun good good happy April Fool's Day don't make any mean pranks today joking about being pregnant sick dying none of that's funny it's not a joke so don't do it okay love you bye [Music]
