Can someone help with CC?!?

SimpleIntoxication

I found a lot of really pretty CC on MTS and I followed the instructions; downloaded and opened with 7-zip to exract into the sims 3 "downloads folder." but it isn't showing up in my game? What did I do wrong?

I know that's how you get mods to work but is CC the same way? Like I already have the framework setup thing and the mods folder, but I thought you were supposed to put CC into the "downloads" folder??

it depends on the file type of the cc
you put .sims3pack files in the download folder and .package files in the mods folder

CC can come as either a package file or as a sims3pack. You might want to read this guide:

That link that donnabailey covers all of the basics and as angel pointed out there are different types for example TSR has the files like store, sims3paks and mods the sim's has package files, you'll get the hang of it just review in full the simwiki stuff
