Default Saved Sims not showing up in CAS Bin
My saved sims wont show up in the create a sim bin. If I look in my saved sims file folder they're all there, but in game there's nothing.

I've tried deleting and resetting my folder like other forums have suggested but my sims still wont show up. Any suggestions?

Start with checking the filters in the GUI, you won't see for example teenagers in default set of options. You need to explicitly set filters for it (or select "ALL").

Also check if the file has the right extension - SavedSims reads .sim files, not .package. Sometimes when you download cc ones they come in .package format.

Yes they all read .SimFile

I haven't downloaded any cc ones only saving the ones ive created so I don't understand why they never show up in the bin

At the risk of sounding overly picky here, the file extension should be ".sim" not ".simFile" (without the quotes of course). The game won't recognize saved sims for what they are if the file is carrying the wrong extension.

They all have the file extension ".sim" when I mentioned sim file I got confused between file extension and file type lol
