Pre-Organizing Custom Content Using Google Reader
This guide will explain to users how organizing custom content around Google Reader will help keep track of downloaded Content and any Sims 3 Related Items (News, Stories, etc.). Keeping track of CC is the BEST way to alleviate game problems. Using RSS readers for independent CC sites will allow you to not worry about when a creator's next update is. It will show up as soon as they post something.
What You Will Need
- Any browser will do. Chrome is suggested.
- A Google Account (gmail)
- Links to websites you visit, listed in notepad possibly.
- Caveat: Some websites don't have RSS feeds, though 90% of the time the links work.
- To alleviate websites not showing up, suggest to the CC creator to allow RSS feeds, if they can/will.
Step One: Finding Custom Content Sites To Visit
If you already know of some websites that you ONLY want to download from skip this step. Otherwise, a good start for finding websites to download from is visiting My Sims 3 Blog. I suggest subscribing to this website after reading the "Subscribing" explanation.
Step Two: Make a List of Sims 3 Sites You Visit
This step is probably the most tedious, but worth it in the end.
- Start by opening up Notepad or any text editor.
- Visit the homepage of the website you visit regularly.
- Copy the URL of the homepage and paste it into notepad.
- Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for each website.
Step Three: Visiting Google Reader
- Navigate to [1].
- Register an account with Google or log in with your Google account.
- Skip Step 1.1 if you're already logged in to Google.
- Select the red "Subscribe" button and copy and paste one link at a time.
- Repeat Step 3 for each link.
- Remember: 90% of the time the website links will work. Skip the websites that do not work.
