I don't know how to package sims, but packaging houses is easy.

Zsnes, future posts should be posted in the help section. :)

Are you trying to package sims, sims born in-game (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=72235) or houses, etc;? See this (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=31896&highlight=7-Zip) thread also.

I followed the direction from this thread www.modthesims2.com 72235 (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=72235) the problem is it didn't work.  The file appears in Saved Sims but does not show up in CAS or Body Shop.  I have all the expansion packs up to Seasons (except Pest) and the FFS and GL stuff packs.  The package file is 637Kb but if I try to open it with Clean Pack it shows as an empty package.

try this tutorial here-

You have to clone the sim that you extracted and package the clone- not the original extract.

Dumb question, after you've packaged your sim how do you know which other packages are also needed? Like skintones, hair...etc.  I have no clue what I've used.

All of that stuff should be packaged with your sim.

Download and install Clean Installer (http://sims2pack.modthesims2.com/) if you haven't already.  Double click on your sim package and it'll bring up a window listing everything that's included in that package.

Clean Installer just showed the one entry. I'll start a new topic.
