Sims 3 Packages not showing up in game

@stinaxx03  Have you tried deleting the five cache files in your Sims 3 folder (the one in Documents\Electronic Arts)?  They should be deleted each time you add or remove content from your game.  For reference, they are:

• CASPartCache.package
• compositorCache.package
• scriptCache.package
• simCompositorCache.package
• socialCache.package

If that doesn't help, try rebuilding your Mods folder from scratch.  Add only one file you know used to work, and if it shows up in-game, add the new files you downloaded recently and see whether they load.  Some may not work, and you'll need to test to find out either way.  Once you've sorted through those, you can add the rest of your previously working .package files.

While testing your content, be sure to delete the cache files each time you quit the game.

Thank you so much for responding!! I have tried to delete the caches and then seemed to do nothing. I continued to put the mods I know would work but all the .package files all stopped working. I’m so confused on why all the files stopped working and showing up. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the sims 3. I have tried to use a test mod which is the no intro mod.

@stinaxx03  What kind of install do you have: Origin, disc, Steam, or something else (and what)?  When you rebuild your Mods folder, does any mod ever work at any point?

I installed it through origin and none of them work when I rebuild it.

@stinaxx03  Please open the Packages folder where you'ra adding your mods in a File Explorer window and take a screenshot.  (Hit Windows key-shift-S and drag your cursor over the section of screen you want to capture, then open Paint and crtl-V to paste the image.)  Be sure to include the address bar, above the list of files and folders, in your screenshot.  You can black out your username if it appears anywhere, but please leave the rest of the file path intact.

here it is

Omg thank you so much!! It’s now working!! 🙂)
