Before we go any further, let’s look at what a Sims 3 save file is, and how to back it up. There are two folders in the game – the Library and the Mods folder. The Library folder contains all of your custom content, including family members and creations. Besides the main Sims 3 file, there are also three subfolders – the Mods folder contains your custom content, the Library folder contains all of your family members and the Library folder contains all of your creations.
Table of Contents
Mods folder contains custom content
If you’re looking for a way to enable custom content in your Sims 3 saves, you’ll have to go into your computer’s “Mods” folder. By default, this folder is located at C:Users*User Name*DocumentsElectronic ArtsSims 3. If you’ve installed your game in a different location, simply navigate to it and delete the following files.
The Library folder contains your saved Households and Lots, and it also contains downloaded Sims. If you’ve used the Create a Sim feature, the SavedSims folder holds the Sims you’ve downloaded. This means that if you’ve saved custom content in this folder, it’s not included in your backup. However, if you’re a fan of music and would like to save your recordings, this folder is an excellent place to store them.
Once you’ve downloaded your Sims 3 saves, you’ll have to extract the files to create a “mods” folder. You’ll find this folder in your Documents/EA/TS3 folder. Extract the files and place them into the Mods folder. This folder is a common storage location for the files from your Sims 3 mods. Just make sure to capitalize “Mods” so that it’s easy to find them.
Library folder contains all of your creations
If you’ve purchased and saved Households, Lots, and Sims in the library, you can find them in this folder. Sims that you’ve created through the Create-a-Sim tool are also in this folder, as well as any Sims you’ve downloaded or saved. There are also several folders you can put your Sims in, including SavedSims, DownloadedSims, and Screenshots & Recorded Videos.
To install mods, you need to have a special tool called Sims3Pack Multi Installer. This tool includes the Library folder and includes the mods you’re looking for. If you’ve downloaded the Library package, you’ll find that it comes with a package file that contains the files you’re looking for. Just open the package file and place it in the appropriate folder. You must make sure that your game is patched, as this can affect compatibility.
After creating a Sims 3 household, you can choose to share it with the community by adding them to your profile on social networks or by e-mail. Make sure your sims are complete, including their traits, aspirations, names, and outfits. Clicking the icon to save a household will open a gallery where you can change the name and add a description. You can also add a hashtag or a backstory for your Sims, if you wish.
Library folder contains all of your family members
If you’re looking to save your families individually, you should first move your family off of the lot you’re currently playing. Click the family’s name to open a window that lets you choose where they’ll go. Once there, select the “left” option to move them out of the lot. After clicking the “left” option, the game will ask you whether or not to save this move.
The Library folder is a key folder in Sims 3 saves. In this folder, all of your family members’ information can be found. This folder is located in your Documents folder. It holds your saved games, screenshots, downloads, and any other information related to your game. It’s also stored on your C-drive. You can use this folder to transfer your saved family members and friends to other devices.
Library folder contains all of your custom content
Your Library folder is where you save your saved Households, Lots, and Sims. It also stores any custom content you’ve downloaded. It is also where you save your Sims that you’ve created with the Create-a-Sim feature. For the best Sims 3 experience, you should back up these folders on a regular basis. You can find the Library folder in your Sims 3 saves by navigating to the Library folder.
If you’ve been playing for awhile, you’ve probably realized that your custom content is growing. This is especially true if you’re using your computer’s built-in storage. A typical game save can be anywhere from 20MB to over 1GB. Make sure you have enough free space on your hard drive to store all of your Sims 3 save files. It’s also a good idea to back up these backups, which you can use whenever you want to save a particular Sim or a lot of content.
