It shows the icon of the PDF but the extension is a ".package" file. I copy and pasted it like I'm supposed to but it doesn't show up in the game.

@Gam3rGurl11  If it has the .package extension, then they are not pdf files, and you don't have to worry about the icon.

Did you follow the description in the link I pasted? You could also ask the creator of the CC for help, or wait until someone who uses CC will come along (since I don't).

Here are some good tips for when CC doesn't show up in game:

    Probably the file conversion indicates the source of the product code. The same situation was with me when I downloaded mods for Skyrim 5. Perhaps you need to convert these files to a different format to get the desired result. I usually use the service https://pdfliner.com/form_1099_misc in such situations, after the conversion I get the necessary codes and put them in the necessary folders with the game. Usually, the description of the installation is indicated on the site where the mods were downloaded from. Try to read carefully the description of this mod and the progress of its installation, I think we have a similar solution to this problem.
