About TS4SCRIPT files

A .ts4script file is essentially a standard ZIP archive that has been renamed. It contains compiled Python bytecode (CPython 3.7) used by The Sims 4 to execute complex gameplay logic, such as custom interactions or UI changes. Unlike package files (which store assets like textures and 3D models), .ts4script files store the code that makes mods function.

Users frequently attempt to "convert" these files to see the source code, but they are binary containers holding pyc files, not human-readable text. To edit them, you cannot simply open them in a text editor like Notepad. Instead, you must first rename the extension to ZIP, extract the contents, and then use a specific decompiler like uncompyle6 to convert the bytecode back into readable PY (Python) source files. A common issue for users is the "Folder Depth Rule": the game engine will only load script files placed directly in the Mods folder or exactly one subfolder deep; if placed deeper (e.g., Mods/Creator/Category/Mod.ts4script), the script will silently fail to load.

Convert.Guru analyzes your TS4SCRIPT file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted PACKAGE, ZIP, PYC, PY, HOUSEHOLDBINARY, RPYMC and TBC files.
