A modular gameplay mod that stops The Sims 4 from showing pop-ups prompting you to gain or change Sims’ preferences during gameplay (likes/dislikes in categories like communication, family, romance, characteristics, activities, and music), letting you manage these preferences manually in Create-A-Sim only.

Key features
  • Disables pop-ups for gaining or changing communication preferences (e.g., interests, deep thoughts).
  • Stops prompts related to family dynamics (like jokester or strict tropes).
  • Prevents romance dynamic pop-ups (like distant or steamy couples traits).
  • Eliminates pop-ups for personality or characteristic preferences.
  • Blocks activity and music preference suggestions.
  • Fully modular—you can use any combination of preference modules to tailor which pop-ups to disable.

Requirements and compatibility
Each module requires specific expansion packs: most modules (like communication, family, characteristic) require Growing Together, while the romance dynamics module requires Lovestruck. The activities and music preference modules have no pack requirements. Use cautiously if you have other mods that modify the same tuning files as each module, as conflicts may occur.

Mod release date
First released between April and June 2025, depending on the specific module.

Gameplay role/impact
Streamlines gameplay by eliminating frequent, predictable interruptions. Ideal for players who prefer to manually manage Sims’ preferences in CAS or who want a smoother, less paused gameplay rhythm without repeated system prompts.

Community feedback
Players appreciate the reduced interruptions and value being able to control preference assignment without constant prompts. Many mention it brings a calmer, more immersive gameplay experience—especially helpful when AFK or deeply engaged—as the pop-ups no longer pause or distract.

Created by Bienchen, a highly respected Sims 4 modder known for releasing hundreds of small but impactful gameplay tuning mods.

Editor’s Note
Perfect for players who find preference pop-ups distracting or immersion-breaking. The modular nature lets you disable exactly the pop-ups you dislike while retaining others, giving you fine control. Pair with other “Pop-ups Disabled” modules or preference-management tools for a cleaner, more focused gameplay experience.
