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.
As others have noted, right now the CF app only deals with English mod folders. So you will have to move the things you download from the English one CF creates to the actual one in French. CF is aware of it, but it's complicated and there is no ETA on when it will be fixed.
