Note: If you receive a security warning such as this, click KEEP. It should look like this:Ĭlick the link below and save this to your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods folder: Is there a Mods folder? If not, create the folder now.

Once you have this file, you can add as many folders as you like, up to 5 nested folders deep, to organise your collection of downloads.

To fix this, Electronic Arts created a configuration file that instructs The Sims to also search for mods within folders inside the main Mods folder. However, by default, The Sims 3 does not support this and can only see mods in the top-most Mods folder, and not in any folders inside that. The structure of Resource.cfg file allow you to create up to 5 levels of subdirectories into the Mods folder.Many players like to organise their downloaded mods into folders. Btw, if you have problems and the game doesn't load your custom contents, try to move it together with Mods folder to Programs/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 World Adventure. You don't need to move this file into Programs/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 World Adventure folder, the game read it even if placed into Programs/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3. This file is compatible with World Adventure.

The Sims 3.app > Contents > Resources > transgaming > c_drive > Program Files > Electronic Arts > The Sims 3. The path to find the right folder should be something like this Resource.cfg file is the same and both the folder where insert it is the same. Keep Resource.cfg from your desktop and insert it on Programs/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3.Usually it should be on Programs/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 of the hard drive where you've installed the game (default is C:). WHERE IS INSTALLED not in the saves folder on Documents. Go to the drive and folder where you've installed the game.
