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. If there isn't, remove the files until there's an update.Greetings Sims 3 Fans.

If there is, download it, and replace the original files. When a mod breaks then you will need to check where you got it from to see if there's a new version.

Unlike the game itself, mods don't automatically update. Follow the instructions above to enable them again. This is because there's a risk that a mod isn't compatible with the latest version of the game. Mods and CC are usually disabled after The Sims 4 updates. If your lots use custom content, ensure that Include Custom Content is ticked on the left. To find these, click the gallery icon (photo album) in the top-right and click My Library. You don't need to do this for any lots you download. If you don't want to see this, untick Show At Startup. You will need to restart the game for the changes to take effect.Ī Mods panel will then open when you launch the game, listing which mods are enabled. Here, tick Enable Custom Content and Mods and Script Mods Allowed.
