hey im new to sims 4. i know how to unextract files and put them in my mods folder , the basic things but its like 11 of my mods that are not showing up in my game and some of my cc are not showing up in game aswell along with my overrides , i dont know what to do , help please ?
Check with the creators if there are updates available.
@niyahhmonaeelol A few things to check:
1. Do you have script mods not showing up? Check that you've got that box ticked in Options > Other.
2. Do you perhaps have two different folders called "Mods"? Use this method to find the one the game sees: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2018/07/how-to-find-your-user-folder/ Head here if you use OneDrive, so you can get it to stop touching Sims content: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/CURRENT-ISSUE-Sims-4-saves-user-content-disappearing-PC/td-p/12475370
3. Do you have files too many folders deep in the Mods folder? Script mods (mods that include a .ts4script file) can be only in Mods or in Mods > A Subfolder. Mods that are just .package files can be deeper, but no more than 5 folders deep.
4. Have you recently deleted the files localthumbcache.package (in the folder The Sims 4) and resource.cfg (in Mods)? Do that and let the game make new ones.
yes i have it enabled.
when first got the game i learned that they cant be to many folders deep.
and i tried to do that but it didnt pop up ?
ive been watching darielle videos for her to help me but it seems im getting nowhere , i just want to play the game with my mods an cc lol.
@niyahhmonaeelol Please check #2 - find the exact location the game is looking for your mods in and make sure that's where all your CC and mods are.
i think i got it , i deleted my one drive because my mods and cc kept going there. i deleted my ea app and i downloaded it back but when it was downloading back it asked me did i want to make changes , but then it said something about it being on my c drive but in dont want anything in my c drive because its no storage , then if i click yes i will have two mods folder and the one that i think is in my game it is not , its the other one in my c drive. i just dont want to mess up andf have to do it all over again.
@niyahhmonaeelol Moving Sims user info to a different drive than the default one, assuming you're on Windows with the EA App, requires uninstalling and reinstalling. Instructions are here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/PC/How-to-move-sims-4-to-external-drive-on-the-EA-app/m-p/12591046
