The hidden file was the culprit.Īnyway, you can fix the problem you describe by editing the resource.cfg, but you can also fix it by getting rid of unneeded folders, which will cause you to need a "longer" path within the resource.cfg. I once incorrectly assumed that a mod was broken because I accidentally tossed a second mod into that folder when I was unzipping it.

I don't want to open up all of those single file folders to make sure they only have one file inside.

It also gets annoying when you're trying to check mods for incompatibility. I guess you could keep adding ***** to your directory, but why do it when there's no real need? I do that because they will add an unneeded extra path in your mod folder. I toss out the directions about how to install the mods or credits that tell you what tools the creator used to make the mod. Or the mod might need you to type in something in the command line to work. I almost always delete them, unless it contains important stuff - for instance, the readme of a mod will tell you what was edited and what mods it will conflict with. Sometimes the package file comes with a ReadMe.

Pull it out of the folder and then delete the folder. package file, there's no need to keep it in that folder. When you unzip a file, most of the unzipping tools will put the unzipped file into a folder. I just wanted to add one more piece of advice. I had this exact problem the OP mentioned. So I tested it to see just how many sub folders it would let me have before it wouldn't show up and the answer is one stupid folder in my mods folder before it won't show up! I thought ok maybe that's just the way it is but then I watched a tutorial on something and I saw that this person had many sub folders in their mods folder so now I know that something isn't right! Can someone please help me because it's gonna be severely annoying only being able to organize tons of cc with only the ability of one sub folder! I was about to give up when I just took a file and put it directly in my mods folder without using any sub folders and then it showed up. I like to organize my cc very specifically and I had everything nested in folders like this: CAS-Clothing-Female-everyday-tops. I was playing sims 4 through origin without actually having the disc in my laptop so I thought maybe that was maybe why it wasn't showing up. I had read how to do it by putting it in my mods folder in the sims 4.

So I've never downloaded any cc yet for the sims 4 until recently and at first nothing was showing up. Cannot put multiple folders in my mods folder for organizing cc!
