How do I get mods and meshes to work in The Sims 3?

I used to be able to do this, but my laptop crashed and it took 6 months to get it fixed and since I couldn't play The Sims 3 and use mods I forgot how to put them in the games to make them work. I have a few that I really want in the game to make it more fun. If anyone could help that would be great!How do I get mods and meshes to work in The Sims 3?
Are the files .package files?

If they are, you need to create a folder Mods and then packages folder inside the Mods folder so it should be like this:

Windows: C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages

Mac: right click the sims 3.app and select show package contents. Contents/Resources/transgaming/c_drive/P鈥?Files/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Mods/Packages



Place all the package files in there (the packages folder)



You also need to download the resource.cfg and put it here:

(Windows) C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 or

(Mac) Contents/Resources/transgaming/c_drive/P鈥?Files/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3

You can download the resource.cfg here:

Get Helper Monkey off www.modthesims.info

Double click the .package files after you have unzipped them.

It puts them in the Mods Folder.

Also.

Get Monkey Bars, also off of www.modthesims.info

That installs the framework,

Aka. Gives you the resource.cfg file and the folders.



To find anything you have installed using Helper Monkey

go to this file:

C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\PackagesHow do I get mods and meshes to work in The Sims 3?
There's a think that helps you put the files in the right place, the title is monkey something.

Why can't i install sims 3 mods??? Its getting me mad!?

I download the mod and i have the sims 3 mod monkey installer, whatever. but, when i right click and choose were i want it to go to it says "Access to the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\ The Sims 3\Mods\Packages\' is denied

well each package has more at the end, but its just the packages name. (such as after \Packages\peggyzone-sims3-F-FAclo0016-10鈥?br>
so yeah, thanks !Why can't i install sims 3 mods??? Its getting me mad!?
Usually some path is wrong or the registry is screwd up.

I'd start by checking the path and all folders.



click,

my computer, C:, program files%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;all the way to "packages"



I'd make sure not to run sims in the background while installing. "i'm assuming you're doing a download"

(i don't play SIMS)



If not, when installing from the disc, and it ask to save to location.

Do the same as when you checked the path and folders



Double check with Electronic Arts website or the website you downloaded from or with your manual, about where the file should be installed at.



You may only have to create a subfolder or add a file extention



I came back to this and found some examples and info

How to download sims 3 mods on Macs?

Ok so I have a macbook, and it doesn't seem to like .zip files or .rar files! When I download mods from modthesims.com, the packages only come in .zip or .rar files, and there is no application that will open them. The sims 3 apps do not seem to like these files either and I cannot find a way around it! Does anyone have any recommended applications to download that can extract these files and add them to my sims 3 game..?????!!!!! Please and thanks for your help!How to download sims 3 mods on Macs?

Where can I get these Sims 3 Mods?

I want to get some sims 3 mods. I want one that will let me have same sex try for baby, teen woohoo and try for baby, and a good story progression mod because EA's isn't very good. In the Story Progression mod, I want one that can let sims into relationships, out of relationships, have kids, etc.

Where can I download these mods, and what are the risks of downloading them? I want some fairly simple mods that would be easy to unistall if nessecary. Also, how do I backup my saved games?Where can I get these Sims 3 Mods?
All of these mods are available on Modthesims.info, however, the site is down for maintenance today, otherwise I'd give you the links.



I have the teen woohoo and same sex woohoo mod, and I have to say that it doesn't work very well. The one time I tested it out with teens, they got frozen into the beds, so I uninstalled the mod.



I haven't used a story progression mod, but I will be looking into it as soon as MTS is back up.



As far as I know, you can't back up saved games.Where can I get these Sims 3 Mods?
For the same sex/teen woohoo, Inteen for Sims 3 (located at sexysims2.com). Make sure you get the right one for your game. There should be instructions on their website (you'll have to register, but it's free).Where can I get these Sims 3 Mods?

Can anyone tell me why my Sims 3 mods aren't working?

I've done everything correctly...I've moved the EA/Sims 3 folder over %26amp; over again. Now it currently resides in the Program Files (x86) folder. I digitally downloaded the game, so I didn't have the Mods folder...but several websites said that I could just create a Mods folder %26amp; Packages folder. So, I created them and put in the Sims 3 folder. I downloaded the Resource.cfg file %26amp; placed it in the Sims 3 folder as well. Everything looks identical to all the tutorial videos I've watched, yet the mod still isn't being applied. A little help would be greatly appreciated.Can anyone tell me why my Sims 3 mods aren't working?
The mods folder needs to go in your Documents library instead of program files - move it to Documents%26gt; Electronic Arts %26gt; The Sims 3 and it should work fine. If not, then there's something else that's not quite right with your set up, use this page to check through and make sure you've got everything you need in the right place: http://www.simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=鈥?/a>



It will definitely work if you have the framework set up correctly! :)Can anyone tell me why my Sims 3 mods aren't working?
Your computer has obviously decided that it wants to play good games, and not the Sims.
