What is Custom Content?
Custom content is user generated content made by Sim players for Sim players. They range from game modifications that change how the game is played (such as allowing Teens to WooHoo) or aesthetic changes (such as adding new clothing and hair styles). Below is a list of the types of content that can be created:
- Genetics (hair color, hair styles, eye color, skin color, etc.)
- Clothing & Accessories
- Objects
- Walls, Floors and Terrain
- Game Modifications

Tips
- Keep your download files in a folder (clothes, skin tones, objects, etc.) so if there is a problem, it'll be easier to find the culprit.
- Don't be a pack rat. If you have too much custom content, it can consume too much RAM, and that can get very messy.
