I already had CC hair on my sims but I didn't remember hot to install new ones so I came here. I then found out that I had no folder named "Mods" and do wonder if it's because of the software update (it asked to upgrade today, I haven't used the game in months). I did all the steps but the blue window with all the package file names won't pop up. And I also wonder where are the files for my old CC hair? They appear on the game and the new won't. I'm a bit lost since It's been a while.
help?
WAIT! I don't have ambitions. What's ambitions? IS there a link for the regular way?
I don't think you have to have Ambitions as long as you are fully patched. I think this way of doing it was introduced with the Ambitions patch, and as long as you installed that patched it should work. I think
(I can't download a single thing for a year, because I have to use my sisters laptop to play and she doesn't want installed stuff on it, but next year I get my own laptop.)
THANKYOUSOMUCH. This is SO easy once you learn how.
I already installed quite a few outfits and furniture.
I took pictures of some of the stuff I downloaded but for some reason the pictures won't show up when I try to upload them on photobucket.
THANKSAGAIN. I'm so happpyyyy I can fiinnnnally get CC!! :]
I've done this (I have Ambitions and Late Night) and it doesn't work. None of my CC shows up in the game even though I've updated all 3 games and my .sims3pack 's don't work either even if their in my downloads file and I click them into the launcher installer it comes up with 'Failed'. Does anyone know why? Thanks
I did this, but nothing showed up. I'm trying to get the pose player+custom poses and buyable fire. Now, all of my old CC that all worked fine the old way isn't showing up at all, and my game is messed up. I don't have any expansion packs. I just want to get my cc to work again because it was fine the old way.
Can you please help me? I don't know if it relates to this topic, I just need help
I bought the sims 3 deluxe 8-12 months ago and played it for awhile, got busy, now I'm playing again. I installed the Sims 3 onto my new MBP and it works fine. I tried installing the Ambitions, but it won't let me pass over the keygen/serial code part. I tried looking for other keygens/serial codes and all of them wouldn't work. I don't know what to do!
Am I meant to download this framework thing? I can't seem to download it for a Mac
Also everyone is talking about CC and I have no interest in that, I only want the master controller thing so i can make the adventures show up when my sims are in france, I am meant to do this to get the master controller thing right? :S
After I have my .package files in in the Packages folder, do I have to do anything else? Because I did exactly what you said and my mods still won't show up.
Just open the zip file and then place the entire Mods folder in your Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 folder exactly the way it comes out of the zip.
For webkinzluver14:
Have you deleted your cache files?
They're in your Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 folder, and they're called:
CASPartCache.package
compositorCache.package
scriptCache.package
simCompositorCache.package
socialCache.package
Deleting those will force the game to build new caches and read the files again. Any time you've put new .package files into your Mods folder you need to delete these caches.
i’ve done all this, but when I start up the game it gives me: “exception raised Unhandled page fault on read access 0x1003b3e5. Do you wish to debug it?”
I’ve rebooted the game like ten times and still no luck. What’s wrong?

Ambitions is the 2nd EP. It should work with the newer patches, though.

Yes, if you mean the one that is here:

true that, and a pain to install
Is this a problem?
Quick reply please!
