OKAY. I HAVE HADE A HUGEEEEEEE FIGHT WITH THIS WHOLE CC MERGING ISSUE! I'VE BEEN TRYING TO DO IT FOR MONTHSSSS, WITH COUNTLESS TUTORIALS THAT ARE ALL EQUALLY CONFUSING. YOURS IS THE SIMPLEST BY FAR AND MY GAME IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FAST NOW! IM CRYING , GIRL THANK YOU SO MUCH! P.S. IM TYPING IN CAPS ON PURPOSE BECAUSE I AM LITERALLY SO HAPPY RN

i know its been over 4 years but thank u so much

Finally a tutorial that doesn’t add confusion. Thank you!

The mat mat issue is if you have a pattern installed as a .package that has not been fixed properly. It wont cause a cc magic issue but could crash your game. Use delphys dashboard to scan your Documents>EA>CC Magic>Content>Packages folder to find pattern and fix them following the tutorial on my tumblr 😊

This is super helpful, thank you very much!!!

I think is too late but this is working on me. Thank you!😍😍 i'm really excited😄

OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH😭😭😭 My loading time was almost 1 hr and now less than 5 minutes!!!! Also my game now run smoothly (still kinda stuttering, but lemme tell you, I once need like one minute from my house tp the main bridgeport, THAT LONG) I kinda confused firstly why my skin are not loaded, turns out I forgot to enable it HHAHAHA. I need about one hour to find out what's wrong, restarting my game about 6 times BUT WOW ONLY ONE HOUR???? 6 RESTART???? THANK YOU SO MUCHH!!!!

What a concise and helpful video! Thank you. 😃

This is great, thank you! I've never been able to highlight and move several at once though. I have to do them all individually.

Wish I could like this 100000 times! Thank You!!

Thank you! Works great for me, awesome tutorial

I just started replaying the sims and tried to use s3pe today and it kept not responding for like 30 minutes. I downloaded cc magic and it did everything in like 5 minutes.

I wish my CC was as organized as yours! I am gonna try to organize it it the during the next weeks to see if I can reduce the lag in my game

Thank you so much, you helped a lot 💞

After doing this none of my cc shows up in game. Any way to solve this?

you made the process much easier lmao thanks

I'm rebuilding them all right now. Wish me luck.

I still have no idea how to use this. 😩 (I need things explained to me like I'm 5.) I wish someone would just make a Mod Manager for TS3 like there is for TS4.

fuck this is confusing

Is there a hotkey to select all? It is kind of a pain having to select one and then scroll all the way to the last item and have to then shift click to select the first item to the last, and then have to shift click AGAIN to drag all of it into a set.

I don't know why it's not working for me... I know I don't have any bad CC in there, I keep all of my CC organized, but when I put my stuff through the program, it freezes on the loading screen. Any ideas?

Thanks you very much!

This is a great video! Thank you!

Okay, My Cc Magic Is Organized By The Creaters... The Cc Was There One Day But Now Is Only Showing A Few.. I Have Everything Enabled So What Did I Do Wrong ? I’ve Deleted Catch Files & Everything

Thank you so much for this video, it was very helpful! I've been trying to understand how to use CCMagic through videos for a while now and your tutorial was the first one that made me understand how to use this tool without seeming too complicated. I just have some questions, sorry if I sound dumb but if you could answer, I would be very grateful: - Do I have to open CCMagic and Enable/Rebuild my sets in there every single time I want to launch the sims 3? Or if I do this once, it will be enabled in my game automatically? - I would also not want to start my game from CCMagic button, but rather continue to start from the native launcher itself. Also, I might keep installing sims, worlds and lots by native launcher since they are sim3packs (and to prevent bugs n stuff). Is there any possibility that the game will no longer recognize my contents installed through the launcher or have a problem when starting the game through it? - I've seen some people complain that CCMagic doesn't work with 1.69 game version anymore. This is my version and my game itself is in Portuguese, but my folders are all in English by default, including the "The Sims 3" one. Do you think CCMagic is gonna work properly then or there's something else about the 1.69 version that prevents the tool from working? Sorry for the long comment and thank you again!

this is so helpful!

I would love to use cc magic to merge my cc but it keeps both the merged package and the original unmerged packages files on the same hard drive which is a big issue for me personally. Do you know if there's a way I can keep them on separate hard drives?

Can I still do this after creating houses and sims with cc, or will the cc be replaced by default items after merging all my with CC Magic?

I've used CC Magic for years and am now struggling to get Nraas and other scripts to pop up when it came to transferring mod files. Is there any trick to get them to work?

wow thank you this is cool

My cc and mods aren’t working after I used cc magic and I’m not sure why. I’ve used it 3 other times before and it worked perfectly fine but it seems this time it doesn’t...I don’t know what’s going on. I can’t live without mods and cc...please help me

it crashes when i try to rebuild like instantly

nothing happens when i refresh

Ok, I need help with my CC Magic and sims 3 Im completlly stumed and confused here, I was able to load CC Magic to my Laptop, I click on the program CC Magic, I Click on both Default and Legacy and nothing pulls up there both blank??? Just to see if the CC magic program is working I downloaded 3 Fireplaces from the Sims resorce witch automaticlly placed it in my Sims 3 Launcher, but nothing is pulling up in my CC Cleaner this is really confuseing and I dont know what to do, what am I doing wrong here?.....

My folders are; Downloads and Mods, in my Downloads folder are my Custom Content files, but there’s no AF or AM folders, they’re all just putted in. And in the other, Mods folder there’s just packages, also not sorted. What should I do then?

can you do this with cc skins? i think ive just broken my skins bc i used this to merge them into a folder 😭

what is the ""script versions" in magic? is it important please, I forgot to have a copy of my clothes cc. and I accidentally put it all in cc magic without it being organized... I've sorted all out in ccmagic but all that's left in "script versions" I have no idea what to do and I'm so scared I feel like I want to cry...

So once I do this where should I put my sims3packs if I wanted to install some to the game do I put them in sims 3 downloads or put them in a file in CC magic I am alittle confused?

In my default folder, there are worlds and lots but I have no sims 3 packs in my downloads folder. will this cause an issue if I rebuild other items in different folders?

so i pressed the rebuild button and i got a message saying detected materializing materials issue pattern. I've been having issues being able to just the ea standard body mods and skintone button. Do you think this could be the culprit. sorry if its a stupid question ._.

I don't know why but my downloads don't show up when I refresh. Could help me again?

hi, i already did like what you taught. it was working until menu but when i load my family, it loads halfway and then the game crashed :/ total was 9GB but i merged all of them by categories. each categories has below a hundred files only.....

How do i make my .package files show up in CC magic?

Sorry if this question is asked a lot or I made it sound super confusing but is it possible to have the cc magic folder in another drive; my sims 3 folder (the one that has the mod folder and saves file) is in my D drive and I did the same thing with the cc magic folder but cc magic didn't open up before I moved my cc magic folder it was working fine also the reason I want to move my cc magic is cause I have tons of cc that are too big for my c drive Any help or response is greatly appreciated thank you very much for the wonderful tutorial 💕

my CC magic keeps crashing every time i open it :( i think its because i dont have my cc organized its all under packages but its too much to organize like way too much

And how do I delete items in CCMagic? I manually delete stuff & they are still in my game.

not a single package is showing up when i paste them in downloads whyyyy ugh rebuild doesn’t even do anything either

I know this video is old ad sorry if this is a dumb question, but do you leave the merged cc in that cache folder? Or do they need to be moved back into the package folder?

Hi I'm new to sims 3 so I'm wondering if we could find and delete unwanted/duplicated CC like how we can in sims 4 using tray importer? ❤️

Can you still install sims 3 packs through the launcher or will you have to make the sims 3 packs into packages and install them this way?

So when I highlight multiple files it works, but when I go to drag it, it only lets me drag the single package I had my cursor on. Is there a way to fix this because I have literally thousands of packages that would take way too long to drag each one manually?

I merge my cc package file with s3pe will it still work if I have already merged it

can I use cc magic for the cc I merged before? like the one I merged and the new one I just downloaded, because I don't have an unmerged version of the ones I merged anymore :c

sorry but what CBA means

Hey, I don't know if you're still here since this was made ages ago haha, I'm wondering if I need to somehow disable or delete my mods folder (In the Sims 3 folder)? Does CC magic do this automatically? I have legacy disabled in config and default with all the default folders I added enabled - is that how I do it? I'm just worried about if it'll run my mods twice or how it'll know to disable mine etc... sorry I'm totally new to this :D

so what do you do with counters .. ive heard that you have to install via launcher but you say that you only use package files?

Can you use s3pe and cc magic together?

I'll make this a separate comment in case it's not showing up in the notification. For some reason, CC Magic brought back a mod I have deleted back into the game. It's not on the CC Magic list either. How do I find it & get rid of it?

Can you take your packages folder out of mods once you merge all of your cc?

what happens if i leave the mods in
