: Launch the game, go to Game Options > Other , and check the boxes for "Enable Custom Content and Mods" and "Script Mods Allowed". You must restart your game for these changes to take effect. Troubleshooting Tips
: If your game crashes, use a tool like the Sims 4 Mod Manager to quickly identify and deactivate broken content without deleting it.
: If an item appears invisible or with a "checkerboard" texture, you likely missing the mesh (the original 3D model) required for that specific recolor.
: Drag the extracted .package files directly into the Mods folder. Avoid placing them more than one subfolder deep (e.g., Mods > Hair > [File] ), as the game may fail to recognize them if they are buried too far.
: Locate your downloaded .zip file. Right-click it and select "Extract All" (on Windows) or double-click it (on Mac) to reveal the .package files inside.
Note : If the file ends in .rar or .7z , you may need a third-party tool like 7-Zip or WinRAR.
