Custom Content not showing up in The Sims 4
I've downloaded the clothes, put them into the Mods folder, resource.cfg file is there, but the custom content isn't showing up in game, which is weird. Any help?
Forum Discussion
Ive had similar problems. I have alot of cc that im needing for my game and for some reason only some of my cc is loaded in the game and everytime i add something new, it never shows up all it shows is the same cc thats already there. Its so agrivating to find the perfect cc and it to not load up!

Which CC are you using?
My CC is all working fine now, but when I first started using CC it took me some getting used to (as far as set up goes) and now it's all fine. These may be obvious but here's some things I had to fix that might help:
-Like previously said, make sure no sub-folders. If you delete your resource.cfg file then start up the game it will auto-generate a new one. The new one will allow subfolders but the old one does not, so either create a new one or don't use the folders.
-Make sure both mod/cc options are enabled in options. There is both a 'script mods' and a 'cc mods', which cc is new. These turn off every update and need to be re-enabled.
-Double check you have the correct mesh. If you don't have a mesh it either 1) won't show up or 2) will show up but when you click on it nothing will show.
-If it's clothing related check the tags. I know it sounds stupid, but many of the outfits or accessories are set to certain categories, like a beanie might not show up under formal unless you uncheck the 'formal' filter at the top that trims down what shows.
-Also check to make sure the CC is up to date/compatible with what you are using
Honestly I think pretty much every CC I couldn't get to show was due to a mesh related or folder issue. I hope this helps!
If you can provide a little more information on what CC you are trying to get to show up I would be happy to see if it will work in my game/troubleshoot what it takes to make it show up or if there's an issue with the file itself.
Hi, I tried to send you a message but it says Access Denied. If you need to give me permission (the error screen said I might need permission), then could you please? Or just reply on here.
I was going to ask you if I could take you up on your offer to try and download the mods I'm having trouble with, onto your game. So that maybe you can find out why it isn't showing up on mine. I've tried everything else that you mentioned, and it all seems to be the way it should be. So I'm at a loss to why it's not working.
Some of my mods show up, and some don't (more often, it's the makeup mods. Lipstick shows up for adult - except the child lip gloss mods wont show - but any mascara and eyeshadow won't show up). One of the hair mods shows up as bald, and another shows up as bald with red eyes, black and red checkers on body, and question marks on body (wth??!). I'm wondering if you can help me find out if I'm doing something wrong, or if it's just the mods.
Also, if I might have download the mod without the mesh, how do I go about finding the mesh for that mod, after already leaving the simscatalog. Would I try to find the specific mod in my files (and what's the easiest way to do that btw, I have like 150 mods all in Sims 4 folder, not sorted), or is there a quicker way?
Thank you so much! if you can get back to me asap, I'd really appreciate it! It's just getting very frustrating.
