[LaurenW]

for some reason bodyshop doesnt work... at all...

and my Bon Voyage disk doesnt even show body shop on the disk files...

[Debbycus]

Try to start Seasons BodyShop?...
I don't know, it should start with BV too, it starts for others (I don't have it).
Maybe you should do a BV-reinstall...

[LaurenW]

ive tryed BodyShop from my other disks, too...

i'll try reinstaling BV... hopefully that works

[LaurenW]

that worked!!

thank you!!!

<333

[Debbycus]

You're welcome

[LaurenW]

now that i reinstalled BV, alot of the folders in my sims folder are missing

this is all thats there now... do i have to reinstall everything??

[Debbycus]

No, I don't think so.
Are those your backups? If so, move them to a save place then start your game, exit, and put the folders back again.
If they're not your backups, simply start the game. It will initialize itself, don't worry. It can even start with a totally empty 'The Sims 2' folder.

[LaurenW]

ok... as long as it will end up working

[LaurenW]

now its not working again! argh!!

Go to the The Sims2 folder in My Documents and delete cigen.package and try again.

[LaurenW]

ok..i'll give that a try

[LaurenW]

ok, now the computer cant even find my Sims 2 folder from the shortcut on the desktop, but i dunno how to refind it.... what is the files i follow to get to it?  (but bodyshop is kinda working now...)

[LaurenW]

ok the folder is back, but deleting the cigen.package didnt work/.... i dunno what to do
*cries*

[Debbycus]

What do you mean it didn't work?
You want to start it but it doesn't even launch?

Edit: Here's how you find your Sims 2 folder (I see you don't have it on your desktop).
Go to the Start menu. There should be your My Documents. Click. Then find the folder EA Games, and go in it. There's the folder called The sims 2.
To put back My Documents to you desktop: Right-click on any free spot on your desktop, choose Properties. Go to the Desktop tab and choose Customize Desktop near the bottom of the window. In the General tab you see 'Desktop icons'. Click the one that says 'My Documents'. Click OK, close the window then click Apply.

ok, the folder is there now
and yes, i double click bodyshop to start it, but it doesnt even launch
