how to install custom content on Macintosh:
In  Macintosh, the hierarchy is hidden within the Sims 3 application.
let me teach u to install custom content step by step:

Right-click on The Sims 3.app.
Choose "Show Package Content" from the contextual menu.

Navigate through: Contents > Resources > transgaming > c_drive > Program Files > Electronic Arts > The Sims 3. You are now at "the Sims 3 root folder".
Create a folder called Mods. (Attention: the captal 'M' and plural 's')
Double-click on it to enter the folder.
Create a folder inside Mods called Packages.
Paste any .package files in this folder to install them to your game. (for example, put our new skin and hair .package files there so u can use them in game.)

And, last but not least, dont forget to put the .cfg file in your root sims3 folder.

Happy Simming!


OK the first step in setting up the resource.cfg so that mods/new data can be recognized you are going to have to get the resource.cfg from peggy's file

Once you have gotten the resource.cfg extracted it is pretty simple ok now you are most likely asking where does this go I am confused.

I have seen some people put the resource.cfg into C:/My Documents\Electronic Arts/The Sims 3. This is incorrect it does not go there. It goes in C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3.

What we want to do now is copy the resource.cfg file we just got from peggys file after extracting it and  paste it into C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3.

We have now successfully added the resource.cfg!

Now here comes the final step:

Ok now that we have the resource.cfg added to C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 you now want to create a Mods Folder in C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3.

Once you have the Mods Folder created open it up now you want to create a sub-folder called Packages and once that is created we are finished and have successfully completed getting the resource.cfg installed and now mods/new data can recognized by TS3 !

When you download any mods/CC they are to go into C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages

Notes: Once you add the Resource.cfg there is no need to add any additional resource.cfg files.

The reason you see the resource.cfg in a lot of the mods/hacks downloads you download is modders are including these for the down loaders who may not have the resource.cfg.

i have the same problem. ive gone over it many times. my game also crashes

mine doesnt crash its just this whole thing confuses me ,
what im doing is moving the picture that i download into the packages folder,
i have no idea where to get the resource files
ahah maybe im just stupid,
thank you for you help though!
