How To Use .Fam Files in The Sims

Here's How:

1. Download a family in .fam format. May be in zip format. If you download a family from "The Sims Exchange" it will download to the correct folder.
2. Export the .fam file to /thesims/userdata/import/
3. Start "The Sims."
4. Go to the neighborhood you want to use the family in.
5. Click the Import Button. Family will be imported and ready to play.

Tips:

1. Family files (.fam) usually include both the family and a house.
2. There is only one import folder, and can be used with all neighborhoods.
