I just came from my game. My Sim wanted to throw a party. In the menu a townie's face is pitch black. I guess I don't understand what you're saying Reg.
No problem Ravo :)
I really don't want to help you with this. lol I've had the worst experiences with Fan made hairs, packages and mods. After 10 years I just gave all that up and I'm pretty bitter about it all. How long have you been playing the sims? Are you SURE that you want 3rd party content in your game??
I'm going to assume that the Sims uploaded here are ok to download. I just made a sim a couple of days ago and tried to upload her and I couldn't. Come to find out, I used one of my custom patterns for her lingerie. I changed the pattern to an EA pattern and she uploaded to the site. I love what Sim Fans make, but I refuse to download them into my game anymore. For example, my game took about 10 minutes to load... the family file. Upon investigation 2 hair files were HUGE. I took them out and then my family file loads in under 2 minutes. This was about a week before I finally said enoughs enough on the Fan CC. Since I got rid of Fan CC - my crashes have mainly stopped (once a week versus 8 times in 2 hours), I rarely get any error 12's, 13's or 16s anymore. They also caused the worst glitches. I am so Anti-Fan CC now.
Ah, this is your decision, but I don't recommend it. You need a mods folder. I think now it goes into The Sims 3 folder in documents. Inside that you need a package folder. When you download .package files from Fans (not to be confused with what you get here) you put the files there. You'll also need a resource file and I think some kind of .dll for them to show up. The .dll is d3dx9_31. You can do a search for it online to download. Also search for a TS3 resource file, I guess. See, I'm not sure where everything goes anymore. Things keep changing. You might want to do a search for a tutorial for these things. I think The Sims Resource center and Mod The Sims have a tutorial there and you can probably get the files there too.

Sorry for posting on your thread, but I don't know how to post a new one on the forum. Anyway, I really need help. I'd love to download the mods that people have made of new sims and hair styles, but I just don't know how.
