How to find CC online for Sims 4
For Sims 4, content that has been created by other Simmers is referred to as Custom Content or CC. This can be clothing and hairstyles for the Sims, but also construction and purchase objects.
- Large pages include TheSimsResource, SimsCatalog and Sims4Updates. Here you will find collections from various CC designers.
- If you take a closer look at a download, you will find that you need certain expansion packs for some content.
- Downloads are free unless you get to the creator's website, where you are specifically asked to pay before you can download a file.
- It is important that you handle download sites such as Adfly & Co. carefully. Do not click on advertising. It's best to read some comments and look at the number of downloads to decide if it's a safe download.
- It is not uncommon for the creators to be linked in the individual articles. You can usually find even more CC for Sims 4 on personal websites.
- Since the creation of the custom content is time-consuming, many creators have the option of supporting them, for example, via Patreon.
Install custom content: Here's how
Once you've downloaded CC for Sims 4, the file will be in your download folder. Integrating them into the game is simple:
- If the file has the extension .PACKAGE, then move it to the folder "C: \ Users \ [user name] \ Documents \ Electronic Arts \ Die Sims 4 \ Mods". If you want to install a lot of CC, it is best to create subfolders to keep an overview.
- However, if the file ends in .ZIP, right-click on it, select "Extract all" and navigate to the Mods folder as described in the previous bullet point.
- Then start Sims 4 and go to the game options. Under "Other" activate "Activate user-defined content and mods" and restart the game.
- As soon as you start the Sims, you will find the custom content in the game.
