How do you load custom content to the sims

Alright, i have added a related link that will bring you to something called WinRAR. you need to download WinRAR in order to extract the files and use them in your game. don't worry, the program is free and completely safe.

when that is downloaded, go into

My Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2

then create a new folder and name it "Downloads" put everything you download for the sims 2 into this folder.

the files should look like a stack of three books, when they are in your newly created folder, select them all and right click, then select "Extract here"
when the process is finished you can safely delete the "Stacks of books" but keep the white files in that folder at all times.

now when you start your game you might get a pop up saying you have new content in your game, just select the box that says you want to keep the content in the game and then close the game and restart.

now when you go into create a sim, or buy mode, all of the custom content that you have downloaded will appear in your game!
