Re: Mods not workimg

@justsamkeller  It sounds like the game is reading a different Sims 4 user data folder than the one you've been adding mods to.  So no matter what you add to the "wrong" folder, it won't show up in-game.  Here are good instructions on finding the correct folder:

If you don't have a save right now, you can always make one for testing.

And no, you don't need to uninstall Sims 4 or anything drastic.  This is about your user files, not the game's program files.
