Then start up your game in see if it installed correctly. Download and/or unzip it to: My Documents>Electronic Arts>The Sims 3>Mods>Packages. I would start simple: Fine ONE package file of Custom Content you want. Please note that the Resource.cfg file is NOT in your Packages folder, it is in your Mods folder. After you download it, move the resource file to My Documents>Electronic Arts>The sims 3>Mods folder. Sims 3 cannot read custom content without YOU adding a file telling it how to do so. My Documents>Electronic Arts>The sims 3>Mods>Packages So now you should have 2 new folders: Mods and inside of Mods, Packages. Change the name of this second folder to “Packages” Click and open your new folder Mods and repeat the step above, File>New>Folder. While in the The Sims 3 folder, go to the top left corner and click on the menu “File”, then “New”, then “Folder”:Ĭhange the name of the “New Folder” to “Mods”. Go to My Documents>Electronic Arts>The Sims 3. I am going over package files only for now. You need to know how to unzip zipped files as well, since a lot of CC comes zipped. This is a very BASIC how to install custom content guide in Sims 3.įor more detailed instructions please go to Mod the Sims or Google “How to install Custom Content Sims 3” I have noticed a lot of questions about how to install custom content.
