Please note that with The Sims 4, you do not need a Package folder within the Mods folder (like we had to do for The Sims 3). package files that you have downloaded can be moved to the following folder:ĭocuments > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 > Mods.

Now that that has been enabled, we can close the game.Īll. You need to make sure these are selected: There will be two check boxes with the options to Enable Custom Content and Mods and use Script Mods. So before we get started, we’re going to need to open up the game, go to GAME OPTIONS and then OTHER. Hopefully, this one will do the exact same thing for you all. If you know about my mods guide for The Sims 3, you would know that it was written for the sole purpose of making it easier to understand for those who aren’t familiar with using mods or custom content (CC) in their games. So I’ve had a few requests here and there regarding mods and custom content for The Sims 4 on Mac, now that it has finally been released. For help on switching off TS4 and Origin automatic updates please see here.įor help on extracting compressed files such as 7z and RAR please go here. Remember, you MUST remove your Mods before patching your game. (For help on installing Mods in The Sims 3, please read itsaprilXD’s excellent guide here: ) I hope that helps anyone having problems and makes sense.Once again the fabulous itsaprilXD has written a very easy to follow guide on installing Mods on a Mac, this time for The Sims 4. I hope that helps anyone having problems and makes sense. From what I can tell the creators will tell you in the description if the zip file needs to be extracted or not. I am guessing this is only for scripts that you do not have to extract from the zip file. For example how I have place the scripted zip file is Mods>Scripts. I also found you can go one more folder deep, but that is it. You have to place the script zip file directly into the mods folder. With script zipped files you can't do this. Next thing I found is I am really OCD and like everything very organized so I break things up into sets, sites, creator, item.

Next time you go into the game any script files you have placed in the Mods folder should work. Then push apply, log all the way out of game to desktop. You do this by going into the game then go to Game Options then to Other and turn on (check mark) Script Mods. I was having problems getting script zipped files to work, with some testing I figured out why.įirst thing is you have to turn on script mods.
