I tried again, both BBB and the T.O.O.L. are in the mods folder, but they're still not working or showing up in my game. I've got CC and Script Mods enabled. I give up. This really sucks, I wish I was tech savvy just even a little bit! Don't get old, y'all!
I'll be turning 40 next year so, I got 10+ years to go before I can say I'm getting old. Anywho, Don't give up so easily. I hate to do this but since I'm hard-headed and I'd feel bad if you couldn't at least get to try these mods, I'll break it down for you. Please forgive me if this seems/sounds condescending in any way; that is not my intention at all.
1. Delete the Tool and Better Build/Buy folders. Sub folders or copies of the mod must be deleted first or at least sent to the Trash/Recycle Bin.
2. Save (don't open or extract) Twisted Mexi's zip files for the respective mods you want (T.O.O.L. & Better Build/Buy). Try and pay attention to where they save. I did not "upgrade" to Window's 11 so I don't know if there is still a "Downloads" folder (I learned from Windows XP not to upgrade so soon with Microsoft.)
3. Have the folder where the zip files have downloaded opened, as well as your Mods folder. You'd want to cut (not copy) the zipfiles and paste them into your Mods folder.
4. Do not extract a thing. Double-click which ever zipfile you'd like and open the file.
5. If the folder looks like below, please let me know. You can also repeat the same steps for the other zipfile as well.
6. Go back to your 'Sims 4' folder and make sure that your 'Cache', 'Cachestr', 'onlinethumbnailcache' folders, and your 'localthumbnailcache' file are deleted.
7. Restart the game as normal, load a save and go into Build/Buy somewhere. If the Better Build Buy mod is installed correctly, you should more than likely have BB.moveobjects on. If you don't, press the tilde button ( it has this symbol: ~). With T.O.O.L., you should be able to shift click anywhere and the button with the mod's name should pop up.
I know that was quite a bit but I was trying to be cautiously thorough.
Okay....I've tried this and it still doesn't work. When I go to extract the files it says the folders are empty. I can "cut" but there is no option to paste? I'm not sure about that, I used to just drag things over. I give up...I'm just not getting this.
