Re: Installed MCCC. How to update game with the mod. Total noob.

MCC updates pretty quick upon a new patch or DLC.

Best best is to remove the mods folder completely (put it on your desktop or something) until the mod gets updated.

Once it has been updated, redownload it and overwrite the files, then you can put it back in.

Please note though, if you remove the mods folder and you're using CC build/buy/CAS items then you will lose those items if you use an old save, and if you save, you will have to manually redo everything.

    I just leave it on the desktop and overwrite the files? Or should I trash the whole mod and redos load it?

    @Sefdancer4life  If you don't have a lot of files to manage, you don't need to worry about overwriting anything.  After a patch, move your Mods folder to the desktop, test the game to make sure it works (on a new save if you want), then download new copies of the mods you use and add them to the new Mods folder in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4.  The download pages should specify when they've been updated or confirmed to work with the latest patch.

    If you have a lot of custom content items to sort through, you can try adding them to the new Mods folder in batches, again testing the game to make sure everything works.  You can leave behind any mods you've already replaced and trash the old Mods folder when you're done.

    For anyone seeing this, the current version is 2024.3.0. You'll always be able to find the current version number for MCCC in the pinned Broken/Updated thread in Mod & CC Issues .
