New Mac Custom Content Framework Installer - after patch 1.12/2.7/3.3/4.0
installershot.jpg - width=620 height=440
Requires OS X 10.5 or above.
(although you should be able to choose your 'home' file on Tiger or previous... I dunno, I can't test it.)
Just open and double click
Will create the new folders within the Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 and contains the new Resource.cfg file.
I have included the option to point it elsewhere, but it must be to a folder called 'Electronic Arts/The Sims 3'
YOU MUST ALREADY HAVE THE ELECTRONIC ARTS/THE SIMS 3 FOLDER IN YOUR DOCUMENTS FOLDER, OR WHEREVER ELSE YOU POINT IT.
***Make sure your mods are compatible with the patch - shouldn't be a problem with objects, hairs etc. but may have issues with script mods***
UPDATE:
Have hopefully fixed 'Postflight script' error.
Additional Credits:
Marhis, for the original Mac Framework installer

Install Instructions
1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.
For Package files:
1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Fileswiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
For Sims3Pack files:
1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
