The only things you can not convert into package format are all the counters out there and CAP patterns. package through Sims 3 Pack Multi-Extracter. Not to mention the tool tell you if you have corrupted cc as well.Īnyway, since I hate Sim3pack and the launcher so much, I convert every single items into. That way the tool can compare the contents of DCCache and Mods/Package folders at the same time. Open the Sims 3 Dashboard tool and select your “Document/Sims 3” folder to scan. However, you always have to make sure you don’t have the same item installed in both package and sim3pack format. I’m not forcing you to choose package over Sim3pack. It is okay if you love Sim3pack more than package for some reason.
I also made a cc find blog and reblog when there is new cc I’d like to use in the future. + Since Google Reader has been discontinued, I moved on to Feedly.
#SIMS 3 CC FOLDER MODS#
Above all things, I highly recommend to download any cc or mods from only reliable creators directly via their own websites. Thanks to Google Reader I can “star” the only items I want to download later. And every 7-10 days, I go to download the starred items. I’ve subscribed MS3B and SunsetSims via RSS. But isn’t investing a little more time in the beginning worth than constantly reinstalling all your EP/SP for 3 hours AND rebuilding your entire cc collection over and over? I hope at least a few people would find some useful tips from my obsessional behaviors, and… stop crying over their borked games. I know some people think my way of cc organizing is too much work. This is the fruit of my OCD know-how I have accumulated from experiences over many years. This is what the inside of my mod/packages folder looks like as of May, 2015. Trust me, not only haven’t I had a bad save caused by corrupted cc, I’ve never had to rebuild my cc collection just because I can’t tell one from another. Oh well, I still believe the more paranoid you are, the less likely your Sims 3 games are to bork. But it turned out that I was just one of the few cc paranoiacs.
So… yes, before joining Sims communities, I thought everyone was like me. Recently a simmer asked me how I organize my cc, and I knew it was time to write this ridiculously long post. ++ I follow exactly the same method when organizing TS4 CC. Also, still getting questions regarding this post at time, I added some FAQ sections.
#SIMS 3 CC FOLDER UPDATE#
And I finally decided to update this post as there have been some changes to the way I organize my cc.
