Problem modding with vista
Hi all,

Hope im posting this in the right place, i am playing Sims 3 on my vista laptop and i downloaded a few mods. But i cant seem to get the mods to register in the game. Where do i put the downloaded mods after i have extracted them?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Did you use the Sim 3 Package installer?

(I have vista btw, and everything works fine for me)

Hi guys.
I used the helper to install some mods, but now, in the game it's super dark outside or red, day or night, even after uninstalling the mods. Anyone knows what happened? Thanks

For some reason the game likes to randomly reject Resource.cfg and turn everything blood red - cheery. You'll have to copy and paste all the text from that file into a new notepad file, and overwrite Resource.cfg yourself. That seems to be the only thing that fixes it.

This topic is already covered in the sticky here. We don't need yet another thread on it.
Story books are full of fairy tales, of Kings and Queens, and the bluest skies.
