What hacks/fixes are absolutely necessary

(1/9) > >>

kazebird:
I like to keep my downloads at a minimum, and am not sure what fixes are necessary to play the game properly. So tell me what you always have in your downloads folder, and why. I am trying to say that I am not sure which fixes here are critical to preventing BFBVFS, and want you guy's input.

kutto:
Hacks (at least from here) are so small compared to other forms of CC, that it is basically negligible. Go for the gold and get them all.

kazebird:
Well another thing, is some of pescado's hacks in the directory that are supposed to be for AL look outdated, because they say they were tested with NL p0, like nocorruptdeath for example.

kutto:
If they are in the directory, they are updated. He just never updates the RTFM.

Gastfyr:
Well, you don't need to get them all.  Some of the hacks are "features" meaning they do things that are not nessacary but may add fun to your game or may just be annoying if they go against your play style.  I always read carefully what a hack does before I download it.

A very helpful thing Pez does is the hack rating thing with the colours at the top of each hack thread.  It tells you if the hack is meant to fix something (e.g. doorjamfix), elimiate an annoyance (e.g. coffeecuphack), or add a feature (e.g. fitness4all).  I do recomend getting all the fixes, since Maxis left so much stuff broken your game can slowly spiral into a BFBVFS simply by playing it unhackedfixed.
