CC not showing up on game
Heya everybody!

So.... every single download I've made, every custom content, such as mods and clothes (like Disney clothes from Kiara24) are noth showing up in my game.

I've put the package files in the following directory:

C:\Programas\Electronic Arts\Os Sims 3\Mods\Packages

So, what am I doing wrong? :S Why aren't the clothes and the mods working?

Thanks for your help

Are you trying to look under custom content using the * symbol in-game? Because it doesn't actually show up there. You need to just look in the general clothing/etc. areas.

Ok, found out...

Firstly I've looked for the custom content with that symbol, as it doesn't appeared, I've looked under normal clothes, Still doesn't appear :S

Now, as I was getting a little bit tired of this, I've tried to create a new game... TA-DA! it appeared! :S can't understand why it doesn't appear on my other saved games but ok...

Did you manage to read the FAQ's linked above? it's not just a matter of following the path, you have to have the right resource.cfg file and the correct folders.

I'm worried that my latest Salvation Army donation will result in homeless people looking like sluts from the 90s.

yes i said i read it all. i just can't make any sense out of it. i can't get the monkey thing to work either because i don't know which one to download and people are saying they still have problems with it even on Vista so i'm sooooo confused. i'm totally illiterate on computers when it comes down to files and stuff.
