-TSR's modding tools produce Sims3Pack format files. MTS accepts only Package format files, except in the case of lots. There are a few different methods for converting .Sims3Pack to .package; choose whichever you find most convenient.
+MTS only accepts sims3pack formats for lots, everything else must be converted to .package format.  If your creations were made with the free tools available here then you already have them as .package files.  If you have used TSRW for your creations then you can export them as sims3pack or .package format.  If you are a downloader and would just like to convert sims3packs from elsewhere then you can use one of the first methods.
 * When you install a Sims3Pack using the Launcher, it creates a .package file in My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/DCBackup. They're all inscrutably named though, with a long string of letters and numbers. You can just rename your .package file from that folder (if you just installed it, sort the folder by date and it should be the last one).
 * Or, use Delphy's [http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=364038 Sims3Pack Multi Installer] to extract the .package from the .sims3pack. (Especially useful if you have several .sims3pack files in a folder). You'll still have to rename it.

-Once your project is finished, go to the Edit drop down box in the top toolbar, then click on Project Contents.  From there, click on Export and choose the option "To .package".  Name  your file, save it, and bask in the glory that is your new .package file.  (NOTE: Older versions of the TSRW might not have this feature.)
