NEW VERSION (18/09/2026 v1.0.2): https://www.patreon.com/Modsby/posts/modsbys-instant-169842644

OLD VERSION: This is an optimisation mod. That works by optimistically preloading the menus in the background. Even under 1 terabyte of Mods load this Mod promises to open for you < 0.2 seconds. Even if you hate other mods and want to keep it "Vanilla" this mod works for you in the background.

If this experiment works, this functionality is moving to MDM (Modsby Dropdown Menu)

yep

HOW IT WORKS:

Allow about 30 seconds after the first household loads for IPM to finish starting. This happens once each time you start the game, not on travel or every household switch. - if this happens let me know

The normal menu can still open during that wait.

The final notification that announces that it's ready only means its ready to start aka it does not mean every interaction has been preloaded.

Menus are learned when opened. Expires in 5 mins.

First-time menus and fresh checks of selected interactions can still take time.

Back-to-back accepted clicks are now handled in order

Incompatibility with other mods i found:Auto Pause On Pie Menu - Incompatible: for now.Medieval Pie Menu - Incompatible.Modsby’s Dropdown Menu / MDM - Incompatible. MDM will have its own instant menu feature.Fresh Pie Menu - (Expected) to not to work.Any mod not listed that has this in its name "Pie-Menu" - is Expected not to work. Bonus: You can press ALT + CLICK to open old menu to compare loading time and contents.

Change-log:

Packacking error fixed that prevented the game from starting.

Preserved monkey bashing clicks when opening another menu.

Stopped delayed replies from reopening old menus or replacing.

Added notifications to remind that its not ready and when its ready

Kept learned menus cached when switching between Sims. So they don't forget quickly.

now supports TwistedMexi’s search! It's actually cool but caused me a lot of headache so lets not make this a habbitWhat I really need to confirm is this scenarios: 1) Can anybody confirm that its working as expected2) The menu is just woooww3) Any mods you like to be compatible next - is really not a requirment but if its a must, then fine.4) Any mods that are incompatible so i can add to this list:Known bugs: -Clicking the same object or sim while monkey-bashing has made the cache very fat. Let's not do that.- Opening "Change outfit" or selector popups have a delay - This one is being fixed now and will be updated within 24 hours est 16-17 September 2026 Edit: Hotfix in 1.0.11.8

- Please read other comments but if you have any more details to report i'd love to hear it, any detail may help me save valuable time recreating the bug to identify it's cause.Please help me make IPM perfect by leaving some useful feedback! Thank you!

tldr; By downloading you accept this product is "as-is" and you understand that it takes 30 seconds after game loads before you can use it.

Dude, this is a GAME CHANGER! I can't believe how much of a difference this made my gameplay. I have over 400GB of mods and notice an immediate change!😎 The only issues I've noticed is a delay with pop up menus after clicking an interaction. For example, when I click on the "change outfit" option, the menu takes at least 10+ seconds before it pops up. Even after the pie menu loads up instantly. Also, sometimes when clicking an interaction on another Sim, it doesn't happen and a message in red pops up saying "This interaction is no longer available. Please open the menu again"😭

Kitrell Simz

I also noticed it doesn't at all work for the testing cheats pie menu

Modsby's Laboratory

Yeah. Good call. If its that noticeable of a difference then i should cover that too in the next update! Thanks! I completely forgot about that

Modsby's Laboratory

Thank you for the feedback, i hope they arent game breaking. What is super useful to me was that its "change outfit", that one might act differently then other actions, maybe a silent crash. yeah and the "This interaction is no longer available. Please open the menu again." <- that is where the work in progress is due to some limitations of me trying to break the game with a hatchet to make it work. Its one of those very tricky and sneaky bits i can't crack yet. Its because EA provides information still at the same 400gb mod load and if its not there, then the game says no. But, there might be different reasons, so i dunno yet :) If you get any more of those oddities like "change outfit", or exact names that show up when you get "Interaction is no longer available" please let me know, helps me triangulate faster. Thank you for helping me test! I'M SO HAPPY YOU LIKE IT!

some more feedback: 1. like others have mentioned, there's a delay with selector popup menus now. mine isn't a long delay but it's definitely something new that wasn't happening before. for example, it happens with the food menu for me but i haven't noticed it happening with changing outfits. 2. i'm still experiencing a reset with menus lagging again after awhile. your patch notes said that cached menus expire after 5 minutes. is that a limitation of the mod? while i do appreciate what the mod does, i was hoping for a more long term fix for pie menu lag.

Modsby's Laboratory

Thank you for your feedback Marie, I just had a look and identified the broken bits of code for the selector popup. So a hotfix should be today or tomorrow. and I'm making bug number 2 my second next highest priority for the fix after that. I do hope you enjoy it otherwise?!

Marie

yes, i'm still enjoying it and will continue to support! this is a huge deal and i'm excited to see it continue to develop c:

Pixibambie

Thank you for one of the best mod ideas in sims 4 HISTORY!!!!!! cant wait to install and finally not get pissed off at the damn witing time after clicking on sims, just a question, this is most likely not compatible with Tyjokr Tidy Pie Menu right? ty

Modsby's Laboratory

Thank you so much for being here! If you find anything or spot something that I'm not aware of, please feel free to share your thoughts on how to improve. Xxx

I absolutely love 💕this mod it’s the best $5 dollars I’ve ever spent 😂 here are some of my feedback 1. The mod seems to have a cooldown period. For example When interacting with the SIM it only pulls up the pie menu quickly if you are constantly having an interaction with the Sim, but if you go and do something else and come back to that same sim five minutes later it takes 4 or five 5️⃣ seconds for that same pie menu to pop up initially. 2. I’ve been noticing that when my SIM was interacting with the radio some of the pie menu pop-up features like to increase the volume. We’re missing sometimes, but then sometimes it would reappear. 3. Every couple of minutes, no matter the interaction if I click on something it would say this interaction is unavailable, as if I have a lot of interactions queued up or it’s during a fire, but meanwhile, there’s nothing in the queue if you know what I mean. So usually, I have to give it a few seconds and go back and try it again and then it will work. So other than these‘s kind of minor annoyances it’s really a good mod and I love it so much because it makes it where I can download as much mods as I want without having to worry about the pie menu taking forever to open, especially if I’m streaming so thank you. I hope to see you continue to work on it so a lot of of those things will be fixed.

Modsby's Laboratory

Thank you for the feedback! I'll be sure to address all feedback I can asap! And do please share a link to your twitch because Im curious and I might wanna watch too :p

Creative Girl of Color

OK, thanks I will do especially when I start streaming. Oh I forgot to tell you, Miss lollipop Sims sent us 😊

Dariaiscool

you really ate with that mod best believe you'll be one of the biggest modders now This is GAMECHANGING! I was in the biggest Sims 4 slump because of the Pie menu lag it made me not wanna play so truly this makes me actually enjoy playing again!!!! THANK YOU

krakenite

Okay, I've finally had time to play around with this a little. As far as i can tell this works as intended, you need to load the pie menu for each sim but it doesn't reset when you switch active sims. You need to load both the interaction pie menu and the self pie menu. It takes some time when loading the pie menu for the first time, but it reduces slightly when loading it on another sim right after which is neat. It's not a big difference (we're talking milliseconds) but I did time it and it appeared shorter both for the interaction pie menu and the self pie menu. I'll have to test it again to see if it was just a fluke or if it's consistent. I did experience some slight lag with the pie menus after clicking on a random object (I think it was a cc radiator/heater?) but I couldn't replicate it when I tried later and with different objects, it could have just been how heavy my game is, or that the game had just finished loading. The biggest limitation I could see was the 5 minute expiration window, but I'm not sure this is something that can be solved. Considering the pie menu would always take several seconds to load before I feel like having to load it once every 5 minutes is pretty okay all things considered. Overall this is great and a genuine game-changer!! I don't know how you do it but bravo!! EDIT: FORGOT TO ADD, this is still compatible with Tyjokr's Tidy Pie Menu and Trait and Mood Driven Pie Menu

Modsby's Laboratory

Hi! Thank you! Someone just commented that its compatible with Tyjokr Tidy Pie Menu

Pixibambie

Thank you! Thats amazing!

Maruh

Love love the mod, however I think some reason it was messing with my interactions. My sims would take forever to do the action after I told them to, and sometimes would ignore it and then sometimes it would say action unavailable. I removed the mod and tried testing the game and it’s normal again😓. I removed Andirz smart pie, and lumpinou pie mod, and auto pause as well, so I don’t know/think it’s conflicting, I’m not too sure

Maruh

thank you! only thing is, i feel like sometimes the fast opening would work and sometimes it’d go back to normal but, I still appreciate the times it’s fast😅

Modsby's Laboratory

Oh if you find out when or under what conditions it goes back, like did you travel or does it happen before traveling, if I know when that happens I can fix it for you

Maruh

I’d test it out and let you know! Is the newer version the link you commented? If so that’s what I was referencing with the previous message

Maruh

Yep this is the one I tried

Modsby's Laboratory

Makes me think I need to create a custom command that collects last 100 logs and sends them to me whenever something weird happens so I can find out more clearly if it's a bug or not. Anyway, if you see oddities and can let me know how I can recreate it I'd give it a try

krakenite

Wonderful!! I'll try it out tonight after work :))

theprettiest

first it wasnt working for me i put it in a folder in my mods. I decided to just put it loose in my mods folder and now its working. I love this mod! my interactions was alway like 5 to 10 seconds late and with this it works quick! thank you so much definitely a game changer

Dreamview

I love this mod so much! I can’t believe it’s possible, but you made it happen and it’s amazing! I’ve been testing it in my game and I’m really impressed. I did notice that after installing the mod, I can no longer use the features of T-mex TOOL in live mode when trying to move or toggle Sims and objects. I’m not sure if you use this mod or can help, but it’s something I discovered.

Modsby's Laboratory

Thank you for letting me know, TOOL goes on the list to be compatible for next update! (if it's possible - I'll look into it)

heidi schmidt

So i ran in to a problem that wasent there all the time, but suddenly my male sim could not use the bed cc, toke out this mod, and he could use it again, some rooms my other sim wont go to, not sure why, but befor this mod, i never ran into this, love this mod sadly

Modsby's Laboratory

Hmm.. Is it this version or latest one 1.0.2? Taking out mod does not prove it was mods problem unless you put it back again it stops working again. If that is the case, then I'm curious if it's all beds, how large is your mod folder, and what is the bed cc name? I curious to know what's different from all other objects at there should be no difference. Please help me debug to identify the problem for the hot fix. Also make sure you use the latest version
