Hello! I moved this to General help so you can get some quicker answers. I need to ask some basic questions to get an idea of what the problem is.

1. Are you extracting/unzipping the file and moving the .package contents into the Downloads folder or just saving the .rar/.zip file there?

2. Are you downloading all meshes required also?

3. Can you give me an example (or two) of items not showing up?

I have to ask basic questions to get an idea of how much you understand regarding downloads, so don't be offended if you know more than this. Wink

1. They are files that you just copy and paste. They are not in folders that you unzip.

2.Yes, and alot don't require a mesh.

3. Nursey bedding, lipstick, eyebrows, clothing anything not made with Simpe.

Oh let me try to explain more, everything works execpt when i try to put in a file that's not zipped or packgaed and doesn't have the orange S, standing for SimPE. Like after they stopped you from using quick installer you can't download certian thing off modthesims2.com, such as bruno's lipsticks.

If you're just downloading the package file itself, you should just be able to copy or cut and paste directly into your Downloads folder.

Can you provide a link to the lipstick you're talking about?

OK

Those files are in RAR format.

Do you have WinRar?

I'm just curious, are you clicking on save or open?

If you're clicking on open, where exactly are they being saved to or going?

If you're clicking on save, you should just be able to download the RAR file then open and extract to your Downloads folder.

2) I always click save.

I just downloaded it and it comes as a file not in a package. And when that happens it doesn't work.

You might want to get this to unzip your files.

Now, do you have some kind of download accelerator? If you do, disable it.
