I've done that, as I stated in my original post.
You mentioned the gallery and the library. Which are you referring to?

There are three custom Sims I downloaded a while ago and a few custom properties that appear in the My Library tab of the Gallery. All other custom content that should appear there isn't showing. I've even gone so far as to back up the Mods and Tray folders and slowly add things one sub folder at a time, but that doesn't work either. None of these sub folders are more than one folder deep either. Just in case you were wondering.

That won't matter. Whether you have CC/Mods installed or not won't effect what you see in your library. If you have a sim in your library that has CC, you'll STILL see the sim, but if you try to place them in the world and you don't have the CC installed, the sim will be there, just without the CC. Like if the sim had CC hair, you'll see the sim with the hair in your library. But once you place them in the world, they will be bald.
If you downloaded a sim from the gallery and they had CC, you'll still download the sim and it will appear in your library, but unless you have the exact CC the sim's original creator had, they will be missing things.
Also, there's two ways to download a sim. You can download a sim or house and immediately place it in the world, this option WON'T save it to your library. Or you can download it to your library and then place it from there.
Basically it comes down to this... If you go to your My Library tab, check the Custom Content checkbox on the left, you will see everything in your library, whether you have their CC or not. If you're not seeing something, then the items are not in your library.
Those items were originally in your "Tray" folder. If you have a backup of that folder, you can restore it and the items will re-appear in your library.- pete_betts1895 years agoSeasoned Newcomer
It sounds like basic child's play, and really it should be. You DL a compressed file that contains the various stuff you need hair, clothes ect... This includes the household info and what have you that goes into the Tray folder. You decompress to the relevant folders.
With me so far?
I can physically see all the info in the right folders, what I'm not seeing is the content when I boot up the game. This is after I've ticked all the various boxes to view.
What I'm apt to do at this point is to back up all Mods and CC. Then reinstall the game itself and do a gradual replacement of content. Bit by bit.
