Take a screenshot of the following locations: Documents Electronic Arts The Sims 3 Documents Electronic Arts The Sims 3 Mods. After launching The Sims 4 and enabling mods in your game, locate the Mods folder for The Sims 4. The default path for your Sims 4 folder is located in your Documents folder. The Mods folder will generate inside the Sims 4 folder once you have launched the game with mods enabled. In the Mods folder, there is a “Resource.cfg” file. The file must have a.cfg extension and not a.txt extension. You can open the.cfg file in notepad and save it, but you can't save as because that will save it as a text file. The file extension is hidden by the way. If you mess it up simply save your mods then delete the mod folder and then launch the game.

Instruction to install custom contents in TS3

Resource.cfg

WARNING!!

The following article refers to the Resource.cfg file needed after patch 1.12/2.7/3.2 to enable the game to load custom contents in .package format directly from the your My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 folder. The old method to insert custom content in .package format is at the bottom of the page, click the spoiler to read it.

What is Resource.cfg

If you go to The Sims 3's installation folder (usually in Programs/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3), you will find several files with this name.

The Resource.cfg file we are referring to for the installation of .package files, is an additional file you have to download and cannot be found in the game. After you get it, it must be placed in the Mods folder (My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Mods). It doesn't overwrite anything, but allows the game to read .package files from the newly created Mods folder.

How to install Resource.cfg

Download the file here:

1. Extract the .rar file, for example on your desktop.
2. Open Browse directories
3. Go to the drive and folder where you've your saves (usually is My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3). On MAC is pretty similar.
4. Create a new folder and call it Mods.
5. Keep Resource.cfg from your desktop and insert it on this new folder (My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Mods)

Note for MAC

Resource.cfg file is the same and both the folder where insert it is the same.

Edit Resource.cfg

The structure of Resource.cfg file allows you to create up to 5 levels of subdirectories into the Mods folder. What does it mean? Let's see an example:

Note: you can add some folders at each level, such as:

Mods/Hack
Mods/Hair
Mods/Hair/Peggy
Mods/Hair/Rose
Mods/Hair/MTS

and so on.

If you add more subfolders, the game doesn't load them. If want to add more subfolders, you'll need to edit Resource.cfg. Consider that 5 levels are a good compromise. More levels could overload your game and increase the loading time.

If you want, you can edit this file. To do so, select Resource.cfg, right click and choose Open.

Select Notepad (more details with screen about open file here but only in italian sorry).

You should see something like:

Priority 500

PackedFile *.package
PackedFile */*.package
PackedFile */*/*.package
PackedFile */*/*/*.package
PackedFile */*/*/*/*.package

PackedFile */*/*/*/*/*.package

You can add some rows and increase the number of /* in order to increase the number of subfolders to load.

For example:

Priority 500

PackedFile *.package
PackedFile */*.package
PackedFile */*/*.package
PackedFile */*/*/*.package
PackedFile */*/*/*/*.package
PackedFile */*/*/*/*/*.package
PackedFile */*/*/*/*/*/*.package
PackedFile */*/*/*/*/*/*/*.package
PackedFile */*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*.package

PackedFile */*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*.package

If you edit as above the game will load up to 10 subfolders.

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.
