I wish there was a mod for sims to have a marathon race, i know around the sims has marathon items but an actually mod with racers would be cool

It wasn't there - but I finally found it. Ugh. I'm so disorganized.

And I might've killed it entirely....

Here's how I screwed up:
1. Deleted the "original" mod that I posted earlier, still found here on MTS.
2. Put in the new smoking mod, which I will refer to as the vape+ mod for purposes of this discussion
3. game crashed. Okay, something must be wrong. Let's put everything back where it was...
4. Delete the vape+ mod, and then go to recycle bin and restore the "original" mod.
5. Check my folder (which I had just reorganized because, like I stated, I'm disorganized) to ensure the restored file is there... NOPE.
Game refuses to open.

By the way, I note "Original" because I had forgotten that at some point there was an alternate, shown on this video

which is now apparently unavailable for download....?

And now my game won't open at all so I definitely screwed something up.

Don't be like me.

Not that anyone really cares, but:
Bwahaha, my mod-goblin hoarding behavior had a backup file for the overhauled smoking mod hidden away. As far as I can currently discern, my game is playable & "fixed."

Still, though, don't be like me.

[-_-;;]
My inner mod goblin wishes there were more mature-oriented mods that didn't go too far.
Looking for a new/better smoking mod is what caused my issues in the first place. I'm of the opinion that it shouldn't be difficult for adults who have been playing this now 16 to 12 year old game (depending on if you want to count it off from the basegame's release date, or the release date of ITF) to find mods that match the content of their current age.

I what a mod that is a combination of shown content & general "fade-to-black" scenarios; filled with activities & moodlets for sims that would've been considered okay in family oriented or supposed children movies from the 1970s and 1980s that could bump up my game in realism, and grittiness. (Think Star Wars, Charlott's Webb, Goonies, E.T., Gremlins, Labyrinth... If you know you know.)

For an example; a sim with an addiction going to the criminal hideout rabbit hole to get their fix. Nothing explicitly shown, everything implied, interesting moodlets provided. Adds grittiness, but doesn't turn the game into full-on inappropriate mature content.

Some of us have commented on this thread before about how we wish evil/mean sims could be more evil/mean. Enough of us seem to want it, but I can't really find anything that matches the description without breaking my game.

Y'all got any mod suggestions that are not on a website like lover's for people who want their game to contain appropriately more mature content?

Lastly, thank you for taking the time to read my rant and if my game breaks again I won't ramble about it any further.
