Title: XM Sims? Dissappearing Hair!?
Post by: Arialonomus on April 11, 2008, 06:48:36 pm
I've been kind of lackluster in the Sims community for awhile now, and I haven't been on to many of the smaller sites in the past couple of months (I'd say it's been since December or November '07 since I went to this sight I'm speaking of). So recently, I got a new computer and installed Sims 2. I migrated my CC by way of burning to disc.

And off topic, I don't know if this is just me or it happenes to all, NEVER DO THIS! IT MAKES THE CC UNREADABLE AND YOU'D HAVE TO DOWNLOAD ALMOST ALL OF IT.

Anyway I went to do so, and I eventually worked my way to XMSims.com (formerly .net I believe) and OMFG, some (almost half of the female and a chunk of the male) of the HAIR is gone not to mention the sights been redone and now has brighter colors and about a BAGILLION more ads then nessecary...

Anyway, I have two reasons for this post, 1: Where has there hair gone, and is it still possible to download it, and 2: What happened to the sight, why is it now .com, ad overrun, and revamped with some of the uploads missing... :blob6:

Not sure which ones you are missing, so it's hard to help. Their site was hacked and they had to go through a lot to get it back up. I don't mind the ads since the site is almost all free.

Here is where I go for the hair:

Instead of one hair per page there is at least two (scroll down a bit). I hope this helps!

The hair is not gone. There's two hairduo per page and they are reorginizing them. They changed the names of them and not all the links match but I have found all the old style there plus some new ones.

This happens to me everytime I have to reformat which is unfortunately often with my old pc. I always back up to disc's.

I just re-install them all in small chunks and make sure the files are not set to "read-only" as most are after burning.

I change them all back to "normal" instead of read-only and they seem to work just fine. :)

Oh, there's TWO per page, thanks :)

When I posted this I didn't even consider that, plus I was kinda irritable, but anyway thanks.

And... that's right their sight WAS hacked I remember reading about that here.

hehe.. I had to find a mesh from that site, and I couldn't understand a thing! it was gone!
I did figure it out, though.... but suddenly having to scroll down on a site you've using for a while, is a bit confusing...
