Where do I put .package files? - For WA on a Mac.

Hello, sorry for my ignorance if this has been touched upon before, but I'm a bit stuck as to where I put my downloads.

I'm aware of where they go for the base game, but just a tad confused where they go for World adventures. As there's already a 'Packages' file there??

just a basic route to follow will be a great help :D

    and another!

    surely someone must know the answer...
    even if you give me the PC location, i might be able to figure it out from there.

    I have looked on the internet, and on the help page of this site. nothing.

    Sorry, just saw this! Be careful some of the .package files will crash your game! woohoobaby gave my game a ton of trouble.

    Go to finder, and then applications, The Sims 3.

    Right Click on The Sim 3 logo (the green diamond thing) and then go to "Show Package Content".

    A new finder window should open. Click "contents"> "resources"> "transgaming">"c_drive">"program files">"Electronic Arts">"The Sims 3 World Adventure">

    Now in here, you may have to put the Resource.cfg file and a mods file. But here is where your mods>package file should go!

    I hope that was clear!

    aha! thank you! :mrgreen:

    ok, i'm pretty savvy on the basics. Yup, I have the resource.fcg

    So it goes...

    'mods' folder (in the same folder as the resource.fcg) > 'packages' folder - and within the packages folder, this is where I place the .package files?

    I have tried that out before, and got an error code 16 whilst trying to save, due to the indie mod. but i took it out and put a few hair files in its place, but they didn't show up in-game, so I'm just confused?? hmmm.

    Well thanks for your help anyway! Its good to have some verification that I'm going in the right direction!

    Some of the mods may not be updated to work with the new patch, I had that problem as well. And some of the mods will mess with the others.
