    I see one of the files was a .zip? They need to be package files, so please unzip everything first. Also, the old resource.cfg does not permit sub-folders, you can try deleting that and starting your game again.

    Most important, this is the PC forum, you'll get better help in the Mac one. https://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-Mac/bd-p/The-Sims-Mac
    But I can try.

    First. Make sure they're installed correctly: https://bluebellflora.com/itsaprilxds-how-to-install-mods-on-a-mac-guide-the-sim-4/

    Still not working? Open your game, go to Game Options and then Screen Capture. Make sure that the place where the files are saved in the same as the one where the screenshots are saved.
    For example, if your cc are in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Mods, your screenshots should be in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\screenshots.

    If they are somewhere else, like your Cloud, go here: https://bluebellflora.com/2017/02/06/sims-3-and-sims-4-not-loading-save-games/

    Please check this thread for more tips on issues with mods/cc on Mac 🙂

    Also! If you download like people or houses, there are some files that should go in the Tray folder instead. Please check the creators page (where you downloaded it) for instructions. (and below)

    Spoiler
    These kinds of files go into your mods folder. cc ends with .package. Some other mods ends with .ts4script, .py, .cfg and maybe some others.But cc, .package




    These are the files that go in your Tray. as you see their names are usually many number end such. Other endings are .blueprint, .bpi, .room, .rmi.
    These should not be in sub folder, I believe, and will turn up in your library)
