How do you Create a Mod Using The Sims 4 Community Library (S4CL)?

  • Create a repository based off of the Template Project by pulling the Template down to your Machine and pushing the code to a new repository.
  • Use the green button in the top right The Main Page to download this project as a zip file.
  • In your project, create another directory called S4CL.
  • Open the downloaded project and copy the Scripts/sims4communitylib folder into the S4CL folder we created in the previous step. The folder structure should then be: <Your Project>/S4CL/sims4communitylib
  • Right click the S4CL folder -> Mark Directory as -> Sources Root
    • The S4CL folder should turn a blue color and the sims4communitylib folder should look like a folder with a dot (In other words, it should NOT be blue).
  • Your folder structure should look like this: <Your Project>/S4CL/sims4communitylib at this point.
  • Ensure you list in the description of your mod a link to the github releases (You may even link a specific release to ensure compatibility.)
  • Ensure you properly attribute S4CL and its author according to the license located at the bottom of this readme.
  • YOU DO NOT HAVE MY PERMISSION TO BUNDLE S4CL INTO YOUR OWN MOD. So don't do it. Redirect the users of your mod to the github repository or releases pages instead.
