How To Install Package Files Sims 3

by

A Sims3Pack is actually some sort of container/archive for package files (similar to files inside a zipped archive). To get to the files that are within a Sims3Pack, you have two options:

Files
  • Install the file through the launcher as usual and find the extracted files in the DCBackup folder afterwards (sort by date for easier find, they have cryptic names)
  • Use Delphy’s Multi Sims3Pack Extractor.

Custom (.package) files you have successfully added to the game. If your game ever starts acting weird, always first remove ALL of your Mods/Custom Content, as these are most likely the cause. If The Sims 3 is not already installed on your machine, insert the Sims 3 disc into the disc drive on your computer, and follow the on-screen prompts to install the game on your system. 3 Note the base-game Patch Level of your version of Sims 3.

Place the package files into Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Mods/Packages. If you don't have that folder yet, follow the instructions below. If you don't have that folder yet, follow the instructions below. Package Control will then create a.sublime-package file, add the package files to it and place it in the package_destination..pyc Files. With Sublime Text 2, all python files are compiled into.pyc files by default by Sublime Text itself. This allows you to choose if you want to ship a binary only-package. Python 3 in Sublime Text 3 changes how Python scripts are compiled, storing them all in a __pycache__/ folder, which doesn't work if you are trying to ship a binary only package.

Usage

Copy all sims3pack files that you want to convert in a folder of your choice (in the picture X:Sims). All files that the tool finds in this folder are being converted automatically. To set this folder in the tool choose browse in Step 1.

In Step 2 you can choose where you want to extract your files to. I recommend to choose another folder than the mods folder to extract the files to (in the picture X:Sims, too)

Now you have to decide how you want to name the package files. You can name them the way they are inside the sims3pack file. These are cryptic names. To do so, check the option rename file on save. If you do not check the option, the package files are named the same as the sims3pack. This is only true if there is only one package file inside the sims3packs. Houses and Sims have more then one most of the time.
