Detailed Instructions
Don't understand? Here's the simple, step-by-step 'for dummies' tutorial:
Step 1 - Get a ZIP/RAR Extractor
First, you will need a program that can extract from both ZIP and RAR files.
Windows
We recommend WinRAR, which is 'nagware'. That means that you can use it for free for a period of 45 days, and after that you can continue using it free - it just nags you to pay for it, but you don't have to pay anything to use it. Download the installer and run it.
OS X
Zip/unzip functionality is already built into OS X (right-click and select 'Open'). The free utilities StuffIt Expander and The Unarchiver handle most any archive type. For .rar files in particular, you can also use UnRarX, a simple and efficient freeware tool.
Then, once your preferred de-archiving application is installed...
Step 2 - Download the Sim File
- Click on the .sim file link. Save the file to somewhere you can locate it easily - your computer's Desktop is the easy, because you can simply minimize your windows and find it there.
Step 3 - Extract the Sim File
Once the file has finished downloading...
- Go to where you saved it (like your computer's Desktop).
Windows
If you got WinRAR, you should be able to just right-click on the file and choose Extract Here. Then you should have a new file below the RAR.
OS X
On OS X, double-clicking on an archive will extract its contents in the same location.

Step 4 - Identify File Type
Now, you need to know what type of file you have. The easiest way to do this in Windows is to right-click on the file and choose Properties. On the window that pops up, it will say 'Type of file:' and then some text after that. For sims, there are two options on file types they might be: SIM files or SIMS3PACK files.
Step 5 - Install the Sim File
If you have a SIM file
If the file you got in step 4 is a SIM file type...
- Right-click on the SIM file you extracted in step 3 and choose Cut.
- Then click on Start - My Computer.
- Navigate to SavedSims in
- Right-click in an empty space in the SavedSims folder and choose Paste. The SIM file should appear there.
- If you do not have a SavedSims folder, make one in the above directory.

Hopefully, the above steps should have worked just fine, and you can go ahead and play with your new sim in-game! You will find your sim in Create a Sim, in the premade sims bin in the appropriate category for gender, age, etc (as specified by the uploader).
