Hi. :help:
I did all the Steps In these Pages but my custom Content wont work:
Game Help:Installing Sims 3 Package Files/Old Way to New Way (http://www.modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Installing_Sims_3_Package_Files/Old_Way_to_New_Way)
Game Help:Installing Sims 3 Package Files/Setup and Files (http://www.modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Installing_Sims_3_Package_Files/Setup_and_Files)
i can't see the green icons in the step 5 & the custom contents icons are still like plain paper.my game patch is Updated & is higher than 1.12.

I even Deleted the Cache Files but still it's not working.

By not working, I assume you mean CC isn't showing up in game. What exact version are you on?
Can you copy and paste your resource.cfg here and provide screenshots of these locations:

Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\
Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods
Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Packages

And don't worry about what the icons look like, it won't have an effect on whether or not it works.

What is your base game version (hover over the base game icon in the launcher)?

Please copy and paste the contents of your resource.cfg, too.

Just so you're aware, the icon of the files is totally irrelevant.

Yes, the base game version is the one that starts 1.x. CC will most likely work once you patch your game.

And with the resource.cfg, I was asking if you could paste it here (in this thread) so we can see it and make sure it's correct.
