# How to Install MCCC in Sims 4

Download the all-modules zip from deaderpool-mccc.com, unzip it, and put every file in one folder at `Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Mods\MCCC`. The folder must be one level inside Mods, no deeper. In the game, tick **Enable Custom Content and Mods** and **Script Mods Allowed** under Game Options > Other, then restart. A notification confirms the MCCC version when you load a household.

## Install MCCC step by step

- **Download** `McCmdCenter_AllModules_2026_6_0.zip` from the [official downloads page](https://deaderpool-mccc.com/downloads.html). Details on the [download page](/download).
- **Unzip it.** The game does not read zip files. On Windows, right-click and choose Extract All. On a Mac, double-click the zip.
- **Open your Mods folder.**Windows: `Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Mods`
- Mac: `~/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods`

If there is no Mods folder, EA says you can create one.
- **Make a folder named `MCCC` inside Mods** and move all the unzipped `.ts4script` and `.package` files into it. Keep them together in that one folder.
- **Start The Sims 4.** Open Game Options > Other and tick **Enable Custom Content and Mods** and **Script Mods Allowed**. Apply the change and restart the game.
- **Load a household.** A welcome notification lists the MCCC version and the modules that loaded. Click a computer or a Sim: the **MC Command Center** menu should be there.

## The folder depth rule

The game looks for script mods only one level inside Mods. This is the mistake behind most failed installs.

| Path | Loads? |
| --- | --- |
| `Mods\mc_cmd_center.ts4script` | Yes |
| `Mods\MCCC\mc_cmd_center.ts4script` | Yes |
| `Mods\Script Mods\MCCC\mc_cmd_center.ts4script` | No |
| `Mods\McCmdCenter_AllModules_2026_6_0.zip` | No, still zipped |

Watch for a doubled folder. Some unzip tools create `MCCC\McCmdCenter_AllModules_2026_6_0\`, which puts the files two levels deep. When MCCC is too deep the game shows no error and writes no log: the mod is simply missing.

The [module picker](/#tool) on the main page lists the exact files to keep.

## Which files you need

- `mc_cmd_center.ts4script` is always required. It is the core that every other module plugs into.
- Every other `mc_*.ts4script` is optional. Delete the ones you do not want. Keep the `.package` files next to the scripts.
- All modules must be the same version as `mc_cmd_center`. Never mix files from two releases.
- MC Woohoo is a separate zip. If you want it, unzip it into the same `MCCC` folder.

On a first install there are no `.cfg` or `.log` files. That is normal: MCCC creates them the first time it runs in the game.

## Check that it works

- **Script Mods list:** Game Options > Other > Custom Content should show the MCCC modules under Script Mods. That proves the game found the files.
- **Welcome notification:** shows on loading a household, with the version and modules.
- **Menus:** a computer and any Sim both show **MC Command Center**.
- **Log:** turn on Message Logging under MCCC Settings > Notification / Console / Menu Settings > Notification Settings. Then `mc_cmd_center.log` in the MCCC folder begins with "Initializing MC Command Center version".

Something missing? Go to [MCCC not working](/not-working). Installed and ready? See [how to use MCCC](/how-to-use).

## Mac, OneDrive and console notes

- **Mac:** the steps are the same and the zip is the same. Only the path changes. In Finder use Go > Go to Folder and paste the Mac path above.
- **OneDrive:** if your Documents folder syncs to OneDrive, MCCC can fail to save settings with a "Permission denied" error. Deaderpool's fix is to stop OneDrive syncing the Mods folder.
- **After every game update:** the game switches mods off. Re-tick both options, and install the MCCC version for the new patch. See [updating MCCC](/update).
- **PlayStation and Xbox:** not possible. EA says mods are only available for PC and Mac players.

## FAQ

### Where do I put MCCC files?

In one folder directly inside Mods: `Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Mods\MCCC` on Windows, or `~/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods/MCCC` on Mac.

### Do I need to unzip MCCC?

Yes. The game loads `.ts4script` and `.package` files, not the zip they come in.

### Do I need all the MCCC modules?

No. Only `mc_cmd_center.ts4script` is required. Every other module is optional, as long as the ones you keep match the core's version.

### Can I install MCCC with the CurseForge app?

Yes. Deaderpool has an official CurseForge listing, and the app places the files for you. New versions reach CurseForge at least a week after the public release on his site.
