I'm creating an overhaul mod for some general gameplay aspects of Eco Lifestyle that I don't agree with.
There's a few ways to accomplish what I'm aiming for, with their own pros and cons. If I can help it, I'll try to pick the method you guys vote on here.
Traditional Mod Method
Pros:
- Installation is what most of you are used to, ts4scripts and package files.
- Repairing/Updating TS4 in origin won't remove the mod.
- Might give me more control over design decisions.
Cons:
- Might not be as performance-optimized as the World method. Those with less powerful computers may notice a minor delay when the mod is doing its work.
World Method
Pros:
- Performance optimized, mod will do its work near instantly, regardless of computer specs.
Cons:
- Repairing/Updating TS4 will require this mod to be re-installed each time.
- Mod features will be restricted to EA's system.
- Involves replacing world files which is a process most players may not be familiar with.
Thanks!
