IMPORT TRAY FILES BUT SIMS DON'T APPEAR???

Hej again, I was just over at MTS and sorry to say but this mod has not been updated since Dec 2015, if you read the comments from the last few months some people are reporting that it is no longer working for them or doing weird things in their game, so I think it's safe to say that this mod is kinda iffy to use. It may not be working properly so maybe after you tried to import your 10th sim it borked out your game. Is this the only mod you have in your game?

hi, not sure if anyone will answer this... the thread seems a bit old. All of my cc was in my mods folder, no subfolders. I opened S4TI and no households or anything appeared. I went to this thread and moved all my cc to the tray, but it still doesn't work. help?

CC will not show up in the tray folder as this folder is for houses and sims you have downloaded or taken from the gallery. Is your CC not showing up when it's in your mods folder? Have you enabled your mods and script folders after you updated your game?

Hello, thank you, the CC is back, but now i have a much, much bigger problem. None of my households are there! None of my lots are placed in the worlds... Everything was set back to default. All my households have been deleted. Please help! I tried repairing my game and that didn't help either.> @rosemow said:

@rosemow whoops im back! After having success with what you suggested, the game is yet again acting up. Last night, I played my game for a while, and everything was fine. This morning, I downloaded some custom content, put it in the mods folder, and started my game. My game then only launched to the loading screen. I removed the recently downloaded cc, and it still didn't work. I looked up solutions to my issue, and it recommended uninstalling origin, so I did. It's back on my computer, but all my files are gone, again! I don't have an option to load a save file like last time. Everything is gone.

@rosemow hm.. that article didn't really help. It got the load button back, but my old households are still gone. in my saves folder, there's nothing.

@rosemow I don't use onedrive, unfortunately. I guess my files are gone forever. I've tried to download file recovery software but they're all super expensive. I guess I'll just have to start over :(

I am sorry to resurrect this post but i am finding the same problem. I have saved a friends sim all tray files were copied into the tray folder. CC into my cc folder that i have. I have opened up my game to see and in gallery i cannot find the new sims.
I have selected the Custom content to be view... Any ideas what i am doing wrong?

I am relatively new to this way of saving sims. I generally just get them in the gallery. Any advise would be appreciated

Hello @bebasim
There can’t be any sub folders in the tray folder. Put the tray files directly into the tray folder if you haven’t already done that.

@rosemow - yes i don't have any subfolders in my tray folder at all, only some in my mods folder i did continue to red up a little bit more about this problem, next day rebooted the gallery and they are there :) Not sure if it just took time to show up ?

Thank you for your reply tho

I am the Sims are there now :)
