Sims 4 cc wont show up
Okay so, for a few months now I been trying to find out how to fix my CC problem in TS4. The boxes in game options are enabled. But when I go into CAS I only have the option to select "purchased" an...

yeahh that isn't my issue.
@iheartanimaljam8 Are you on PC or Mac?
@iheartanimaljam8 Is it possible that your game is using a different Mods folder than the one you've been adding the .package files to?
Sometimes, especially after an update, the game will decide to start using a different user folder located on a cloud drive (i.e. OneDrive). If your game is using a Mods folder on the cloud it will not see any ,package files you have been adding in your Documents/Sims 4 Mods folder. Here's a link on how to find out which user folder your game is currently using:

Thanks! I'll look into it!
Still didn't work. plus every time I went to look at the photos they are in a different language so I can't understand that. I don't think I did anything wrong. Plus there isn't anything in my Onedrive folder. I don't know if there is anything in my game that has to do with the CC filter in CAS that doesn't make CC show up also. I don't know if I should download legacy edition to see if that fixes the problem or not but I guarantee that probably doesn't have to do with anything.
@iheartanimaljam8 The easiest way to find the file path for your user folder is to look in your Game Options / Screen Captures tab. If you look in the window where it says "Location Path" that is where your game is looking for your Sims 4 folders, i.e. Saves, Tray, Mods, etc. Here is what mine looks like:
Would you be willing to attach a screen capture of the file path to your Mods folder? It should look something like this:
Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 > Mods
If your game is using the correct file path and it still does not see your CC, you could try this: With your Sims 4 game turned off, move your entire Mods folder to your desktop and rename it Mods_Backup. After you are done there should be no Mods folder in your Sims 4 folder. Then delete the localthumbcache.package file from your Sims 4 folder. Then restart your game and it should create a new Mods folder that is completely empty except for a Resource.cfg file (it will also auto-generate a new localthumbcache.package file). Exit your game again and put a few CC items from your Mods_Backup into the new Mods folder and then restart your game with a New Game to see if it's working now. If it's working properly you can add the rest of your CC a few files at a time & test each one to make sure it is working properly.
