    Crazy how easy it is to mod sims 4, almost as if EA wants us to mod it. Thanks for this one. You’re an Angel, or at the very least a patron saint of modding.

      @hawkeyestone2122 4 года назад +124

      you know why its easy?? Theyre expecting us players to modify the game ourselves. So that they wont bother with it anymore and focus on other things. Laziness, thats it. Sims 3 all the way.

    Answers to commonly asked questions.
    1. The Resource File is linked in the description. (It’s been there the whole time “DL what you need here” but I changed it so it’s clearer to “DL resource file here”)
    2. Yes this works with steam version. Sims 3 has its own launcher.
    3. The overrides folder is for mods that override whatever feature. Assume you can play without.

    Thank you much for this video I just back into playing the Sims 3 and finally got the courage to try putting mods in my game after I tried to do so in 2013 I fried my computer because i wasn't aware of how dangerous pc viruses are I now have working mods in my game and my game runs well with all expansion packs and stuff packs I'm not planning to put cc in my game I had to many bad experiences with it in the past i rather have ugly since and a game that I gives me so much do then have beautiful sims and either have nothing fun to do or try to play a game that barely runs and is corrupted by cc

      Delete any mods you have for the sims 3 and check if there are loading issues. Do a clean install. Delete all mods before and reinstall. Double check your computer meets the specs. Google the specs.

    I’ve been trying for hours so PLEASE respond. When I double click the cc in the folder nothing loads like yours and there is nothing in Installed content! Please help me I also have other cc that’s not like that and just has a sheet of paper

      The ones that look like a sheet of paper goes into (if you are using windows) the documents>electronic arts>thesims3>mods>packages folder. If double clicking doesn't work, just cut and paste the Sims 3pack into the downloads and when you open the launcher it should be in the downloads tab. If you dont have a mods folder you can just create one. Just Google and it explains step by step how to.

    Hey, Troi! You've been one of my top RUclipsrs to go to for Mods - Usually I've no issue with anything you've put out, because you're great at explaining and reviewing. I've watched over this video 3 times, and attempted to follow this more than once - none of the mods are working for me. Do you know of the best place to go for troubleshooting reads? I'll keep looking, but thought it couldn't hurt to ask! Just want my Sim to be able to change his finished Lifetime wish. The absolute only disappointment I've found in the past few weeks in Sims 3 vs Sims 4!

    Hey loves if you are still having trouble I got you! I also didn’t know what to do cause the cc wouldn’t show up in the game. So what I did was copy the resource cf file into the package folder 📁 so now I have two resource files. One in the mods folder and one inside the package file folder. Try it and see if it worked. I also downloaded the nointro skip and the no sparkles build package file as well from the mods website. TRY THIS AND SEE IF IT WORKED FOR YOU! ❤️❤️
