Question: About Packaging Sims

[MrStinky]

When I pack my sims up in body shop  is everything on the sim packed up too? (cuz I want to pack the hairstyle of the sim, however, it doesn't appear in the package why is that?)

[Tenshii~Akari]

It depends on what EPs you have.  I know on EPs Pets and later, all custom recolors and meshes are included with the packed sims.  (Which is a pain at times, because there's a lot of creators that don't like redistribution of meshes. You'd have to delete those "undistributable" files in S2P CI and save the changes in another packaged copy to get around that.)  :?

Ah, I also wondered about that.  Thank you.

No problem.

I also have a question about packaging sims. How does one go about packaging a sim not made in bodyshop?

[Tenshii~Akari]

You'll have to extract them from the neighborhoods in your game with SimPE, then package them in Bodyshop.  There's a tutorial on how to extract sims here.  You may have to use your imagination on the images, though, since they've been deleted, but at least the wording is descriptive enough to guide you through.

i would also like to package my sims, but from bodyshop..

i have them in a sims2pack file...and when i tried uploading on insim, how do i attach my sims2pack to it?

i read about putting it with the pics in attachment, but it never shows up. any help please?

[Tenshii~Akari]

You need to compress the Sims2Pack file into either a .zip file or .rar file.  The site won't take .sims2pack files by themselves.
