1) Download the program and extract the zip attached to this post (TS3PD.exe and TS3Lib.dll must be in the same directory).
2) Run TS3PD.exe (it may take a while to start because it is collecting update information from the web, from your registry, and from the game directories).
3) Select a save directory by clicking on the "..." button or enter the path into the empty box. This is where your downloaded files will be placed.
4) If files appear in the lower list view, that means there are updates available for your game. If you want to automatically install the updates, check "Automatic Install" now.
5) Click on "Download All (sequential)" and it will download them in order. If you have "Automatic Install" checked, it will also install them. If you did not, manually install them in the same order it gave them to you.
7) Once all of the download status says "Installed" or "Downloaded," it is safe to close the application.
Offline Usage Instructions Offline is no longer supported as of version 3.0.

Install Instructions
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.
