However you can convert sim3pack-files into package-files. You can only combine and compress package files !! Delphy's Sims 3 Pack Multi-Extracter (Link) If you don't have these programs, please download and install the programs first !! To start of, you need to have (or download and install) a couple of programs in order to get the compressing of the files to work. *** In order to get this to work, your Sims 3 game should be closed *** The 2nd part will be about the compressing itself. The first part is about how to prepare your files before combining / compressing. In order to not lose track, I have decided to split the tutorial in 2 parts. Mind you, it still is rather 'technical' and it will probably remain 'technical', but if you go and spend a couple of hours on it, the results will be rewarding !! I hope to solve this, by writing this tutorial. Now there are some tutorials about this combining and compressing, but I still see a lot of questions about this and also Simmers who don't get it to work. To keep this in check, I have come across a method to combine and compress your custom content and the result is that your folder(s) with custom content are cleaned up AND your Sims 3 game will load quicker AND custom content will show up faster in game, when for instance you are building or decorating a house AND browsing through clothes and accessories in CAS is like 'normal' again and how it should be :D If you have or own a lot of custom content, you tend to lose track of all the content you have and your Sims 3 game also slows down considerably and it takes 'ages' in CAS before you see your clothes and accessories, which makes creating Sims like an 'ordeal'.
