If it's only some it's really hard to help you.

 

Best is to talk of the creator of the cc.

 

Also make sure you have the mesh if it's a recolor.

Which CC are you using? 

 

My CC is all working fine now, but when I first started using CC it took me some getting used to (as far as set up goes) and now it's all fine. These may be obvious but here's some things I had to fix that might help:

 

-Like previously said, make sure no sub-folders. If you delete your resource.cfg file then start up the game it will auto-generate a new one. The new one will allow subfolders but the old one does not, so either create a new one or don't use the folders. 

 

-Make sure both mod/cc options are enabled in options. There is both a 'script mods' and a 'cc mods', which cc is new. These turn off every update and need to be re-enabled.

 

-Double check you have the correct mesh. If you don't have a mesh it either 1) won't show up or 2) will show up but when you click on it nothing will show.

 

-If it's clothing related check the tags. I know it sounds stupid, but many of the outfits or accessories are set to certain categories, like a beanie might not show up under formal unless you uncheck the 'formal' filter at the top that trims down what shows.

 

-Also check to make sure the CC is up to date/compatible with what you are using

 

Honestly I think pretty much every CC I couldn't get to show was due to a mesh related or folder issue. I hope this helps! 

 

If you can provide a little more information on what CC you are trying to get to show up I would be happy to see if it will work in my game/troubleshoot what it takes to make it show up or if there's an issue with the file itself.

Are you sure those are not just recolors ? Maybe Sims 2 or Sims 3 files ?

 

It's really hard to tell. The best is to talk to the creators of those things that don't show up and see what others report.
