Packaging Problem
Firestar:
I'm looking for some help with something that is happening when I package lots.
The story goes like this. A couple of months ago I got a virus which is now gone but in its wake seems to have left some damaged cc films. Add to this the fact that because I am doing a sims story and have a lot of cc stuff which I need, I can't just remove CC and start again. I came up with a plan to try to keep what I need and then start anew with cc.
I thought that if I opened a new user in my computer, packaged all my current lots and moved them into the new user account I could then add in the hood I use for the game and delete everything in my first user account. Presto fresh start.
So tried one lot. The house does not appear in house bin. But all the cc from the house is there in the catalogue.
I checked with clean installer to see if the house segment was there in the package and yes, it is. However the package appears ti be full of random sims. Some of them are listed as 'person] and others as game object. Only two sims belong in the house.
I checked the other lots I had packaged an they are all the same. I'm wondering if this is why the house is not loading into the house bin, and if anybody knows what I should do about it.
EKozski:
It's been my experience that after you install a house, it appears at the very end of the Houses Bin.
If you're packaging Sim in the house, becareful that they don't have memories of meeting people that were in the same neighborhood. If they have any memories at all, you may have problems with your game.
Firestar:
Thanks Ekozski, yeah I have a load of installed houses in my main lot and thats where I am looking. The house has two resident sims and I would find them remembering people a bonus if it were to happen. Its the other eleven 'game object' and 'person' sims that shouldn't be in the install file I am concerned about. Like you said the houes usually go in at the end of the house bin. I went through the whole bin and this one didn't show.
EKozski:
The Download Organizer identfies "Raw Sims" in your downloads folder. It just doesn't say who they are.
If I ever have a problem with my downloads folder, I always use that.
You might want to try SimPE, and go into the neighborhood view and see what's up.
Firestar:
ok, thanks
