Re: sims 4 cc won't show up, tried everything

@xavibuilds 

You need to remove the cached cracked files from the hidden Library folder. The file path is in the results you pasted. In Finder click Go > Go to Folder, paste the file path and hit Go. Apple help page here - https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mchlp1236/11.0/mac/11.0.

Once you've got rid of them, and you're running a legitimate copy of the game through Origin, we can work on getting your CC to show up.

@Bluebellflora very sorry for the late response!! i tried what u said and this came up 

/Library/Application Support/Origin/LocalContent/The Sims 4

/Users/mariamzacca/Desktop/My Documents/The Sims 4

/Users/mariamzacca/Applications/The Sims 4 Packs

/Users/mariamzacca/Applications/The Sims 4.app

/Users/mariamzacca/Applications/The Sims 4.app/Contents/Resources/The Sims 4.app

/Users/mariamzacca/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4

@Bluebellflora okay i did that. is there anything else i need to do? 

@Bluebellflora yes, there's still no cc showing up,, i'm not sure if it has to do with me deleting some files in the beginning (based on what some tutorials said) 

should i delete the cc and reinstall it or is there anything else to be done? 

@xavibuilds 

Weird. You definitely have CC and Mods enabled in the game options?

@Bluebellflora yes, i've made sure of it multiple times 

@xavibuilds 

Ok. Let's try another Mods search. Try this command in Terminal:

find / -type d -name "*Mods*" 2>/dev/null

Paste the results here and then we can do a search of the contents of that folder.

@Bluebellflora 

/Users/mariamzacca/Desktop/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods

/Users/mariamzacca/Desktop/clutter/ts42/Mods

/Users/mariamzacca/Documents/Sims 4 Studio/Mods

/Users/mariamzacca/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods

so in one of the tutorials someone said to rename my sims 4 folder in order for ea to generate a new one when i start up the game (the old one's called ts42 and its in a folder called clutter) 

which do i delete?

@xavibuilds 

/Users/mariamzacca/Desktop/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods
/Users/mariamzacca/Desktop/clutter/ts42/Mods
/Users/mariamzacca/Documents/Sims 4 Studio/Mods
/Users/mariamzacca/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods

The one in bold shows the Mods folder where your CC/Mods should be. 

Ignore the Sims 4 Studio one.

The other two are on your desktop. If your CC/Mods are in one of those two Mods folders you need to move them into the one in bold.

If they are in the one in bold and still not showing in the game, please paste this into Terminal, hit return and paste the results here. This is showing the contents of the Mods folder (the one above in bold):

ls -l /Users/mariamzacca/Documents/Electronic\ Arts/The\ Sims\ 4/Mods

@Bluebellflora it's still not showing up so i copied this into terminal and this came up 

Mariams-MacBook-Air:~ mariamzacca$ ls -l /Users/mariamzacca/Documents/Electronic\ Arts/The\ Sims\ 4/Mods

total 8

@Bluebellflora 

it's showing that the Documents folder is in the Desktop folder, should i take it out of the desktop folder? 

@xavibuilds 

I don't know why you have a Documents folder on the desktop but your game is not looking there for your saves and mods.

The game looks for saves, game settings, Mods etc. in this location:

/Users/mariamzacca/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4

In your Finder sidebar you should see a Documents folder. it is that Documents folder that is in the file path above and where the Mods folder is that you should put your Mods in.

I'm not really sure how I can make it any clearer ☹️

@Bluebellflora alright, thank you very much for all your help!! don't worry, i think i understand 🙂 greatly appreciate it! 

@xavibuilds 

🙂 if it helps, this is a screenshot of my Mods folder showing the file path at the bottom of the Finder window:

@Bluebellflora oh thank u !! i opened up the game again and everything's back !! thanks again :D
