Hey guys,

simple question, but I can't figure this out. I KNOW where the Download folder is for installing regular CC for the MacOSX Sims 2 Super Collection, but I'm trying to install the Clean UI Replacement and having no success.

In the Ultimate Edition, the files should be dropped in



And in normal editions



Problem is, Super Collection doesn't have these folders and the directory is completely different. My content is located under



Now, I've tried creating a RES folder and installing the replacement there. No luck. I tried creating a UI folder, also with no luck. I then tried creating a TSData folder, also with no luck.

The only thing I can get to work is the opening loading screen (but even that is wonky, see the photos below)



Could anyone offer a guiding hand to fixing this? thanks

I don't know much about the Clean UI Replacement, but I can tell you that you are looking in the wrong place for the proper folder.
According to what you posted for the PC disk version the path is C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSData\Res\UI

So On the Mac you must go to Applications/The Sims™ 2: Super Collection.app and then right click or control click on the app's Icon and then in the menu choose "Show Package Contents" then your path will be Contents/Home/TSData/Res/UI

If it doesn't work then try a different path which would be Contents/Home/Expansion Packs/Bon Voyage/TSData/Res/UI

Do make a back up of the original file or files before you change anything. I don't know anything about the file you are trying to install, but those are the two possible paths as far as I know.

In Fact If I were you I would make a back up of the entire The Sims™ 2: Super Collection.app and keep it some place safe just in case you need to go back to the original version, because unless you are running the current 64 bit Mac OS System you should have a known good back up because you can not download a copy of the game that will work on 32 bit systems anymore as it is all 64 bit now. So be warned.

OOhh my god why did that not occur to me, I literally do that exact thing every time I install Skyrim or Fallout mods on a MacOSX haha....Thank you so much, will try again but this should definitely work now.

And yes, I'm well-versed in keeping backups of my games before modding them. You only make that mistake once hehe

Unfortunately, Clean UI doesn’t actually work on Mac because it needs every expansion to run. The things in the program folders are cursors and the loading screen. The .package you drop in downloads is everything else. That’s probably why it looks odd, unfortunately, your setup doesn’t support it.

Hi, were you able to get this to work for the Macbook: Super Collection? I went on the tumblr for Clean UI and had a look at the FAQ and no questions from Mac users about compatibility but one where she replies and says it works with all devices?

As mentioned in the previous comments in this thread, Clean UI is unavailable for Super Collection

I find it very weird that it did not work and looked like that? I downloaded the clean UI too and put it into downloads the neighbourhood chooser was fine as well as the Sims 2 logo on top the background wasn’t working because it was in the wrong place, so I moved all the things to the right place like cursors in installation & things that need to be in downloads. It looked fine on home screen I was very hopeful, however since Free Time has. hobbies tab it would not load neighbourhoods without crashing
