Im having trouble with my Custom Content. The other day I was playing and ALL my custom content was working fine and showed up in the game.
I went on Yesterday and my custom content didn't show up at ALL. :faceslap:
So I deleted the Mods folder and went back on this sight to re-instal the Mod folder.
After doing so I went on the game to see if it skipped the intro to the Sims 3 and it did just like the instructions said so I knew the Mods folder was working fine.
I then downloaded Sims3 Packages that much be installed through the dashboard.

So I clicked on one like so

It then successfully installed

So I scrolled down to the installations
http://i46.tinypic.com/30wukud.png
and it was there

So I started my game to check if it was there, my game skipped the intro like its supposed to

and showed me a list of the mods I have installed

I then went into Creat-A-Sim to see if my custom content was there.

and as you can see where my mouse is there is NO custom content there.
the hairstyle i just installed is NOT there I scrolled through the WHOL hair style list and NOTHING. :(

So I quit the game open the Launch bard again and went straight to the Install tab

and it wasn't there but its still in the Downloads tab

Can someone tell me whats wrong? and I make sure I only download that is a base game or World Adventures EP custom content since its the only games I have.

The Launcher index may have become corrupted. See FAQ Game_Help:GCCTSU3_Redo/DCCache

You can easily do a test with that single file on a NEW User folder to see if Launcher and the game can both see CC if that is the only thing installed.

And Launcher installs has nothing to do with the /Mod folder. Launcher deals with Sim3Packs.

If the single file works by itself, means that you have to reinstall your Sims3Packs onto a NEW user folder, especially if the guide's step on removing the *.ent & *.idx file does not work.

Im going to try it now but why would my game not show up custom content that was working perfectly fine less than 48 hours ago?
