MTS STAFF NOTE:
This tool has not been updated for newer patches. Mods generated with this program are usually not compatible with newer patches. Do not use this tool to make mods for upload here at MTS, please!
XML tuning mods are fairly easy to make even without this program, and you can make them with the updated versions of the game's XML files so that you can be sure they'll work correctly with your game and with other updated games. Please see the Create dropdown (Sims 3 > Modding Discussion) for info and tutorials on making XML Mods.
The Sims 3 Mod Generator by Marcelo Morgade
Updated to version 0.2.1
New features: Search function, mod project conflicts checking, external package conflicts checking, text area to show full long parametr descriptions
Java Version Issue: Actually, you need Java 1.6 to run this program.
This tool allows customizing THOUSANDS of game parameters and generates a package file to be used as a "mod". (No XML editing required)
It has the concept of "Mod projects". These "mod projects" groups multiple parameters that can be tuned and saved to a package file. (Take a look at the screenshot).

Install Instructions
Quick Guide:
1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.
For Package files:
1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Fileswiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
For Sims3Pack files:
1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
