It's funny because I could barely follow some of the computer speak of the first post.... which is kind of the point I think. People don't buy sims or games to learn about programming and when something's broken ...they vent and whine when they realize they didn't get what they wanted when they paid their hard earned money (maybe in the wrong direction).
As easy as some of these Mods are to install via JSGME (a mod itself) some of other manual fix Mods are extremely intimidating from a non technical person's point of view. While some get more comfortable with the idea (say me), the average joe would get more frustrated and quit or not even try. Eventually would lose interest in the game ...possibly the genre.
I guess it comes down to attracting and keeping a community (with all levels of technical skill) of Simmers who want to come back for more and are willing to put money down for that entertainment.
