Curseforge and Sims 4 for Mac
Now that the Curseforge app integrates with The Sims 4 it may help to have a master thread where people can share tips and tricks and share any issues they are having.

Hello,
I was happy to see that Curseforge can now be used for the Sims 4 on Mac. I installed it, but I was disappointed because I encountered a problem.
I play the Sims in French, and inside the "Electronic Arts" folder in my documents, my save files folder is named "Les Sims 4". The problem is that Curseforge creates a new folder named "The Sims 4" to install mods, so I can't see them in game as it is not the active folder for me to play...
Does anyone knows if there is anything I can do in Curseforge to switch names from "The Sims 4" to "Les Sims 4", or in Origin, to change my save file directory name from "Les Sims 4" to "The Sims 4" ?
I do not know if this is any issue only related to Macs or if it is also the case for PC, but I couldn't find any corresponding topic, so I guess it might be a Mac-specific problem, as Sims 4 in Mac Curseforge has been available for a few days only...
Also, Curseforge finds so many instances of the Sims 4 on my computer, with various "numeric" references, and in various locations (14 in total, see attached screenshot) ! I am wondering if that could also create a problem.
Thanks a lot for your help !
Edit: I have also contacted Curseforge for support on that problem.

Interesting problem and one that it seems Curseforge need to address. Can you change the language to French in the app? What did their support come back with?

The Curseforge app is already in French (even though, some parts of the app are still in English!) 😅
I still did not have a feedback from the support, but as it is the week-end, I might not get any feedback from them before Monday. I will post here when they will give me feedback.
Here is the answer I got from CurseForge support a few hours ago:
Thank you very much for contacting us, I will do my best to assist you with CurseForge 🙂I'm afraid both of these issues are bugs that we are aware of, and might take some time to fix.Unfortunately there aren't any workarounds that I can suggest in the meantime.I'm sorry for the inconvenience!So I guess non-English Mac Users will have to wait for a fix! In the meantime, I just use the simple "copy/paste" technique, to copy mods from the directory created by Curseforge to my actual Sims 4 save file directory. Not the best, but it does the trick!
Hi all!
Is there any news for non English users?
Thanks to all
