yay! I can't believe I just figured out that you are back! I always looooved your stuff! So glad to see you are here again!!!!

that's such a neat sequel to the original post, auntiejo!!!!

No Problem. Yeah, I posted my filename, so you can search for it in your folder, just in case you have that one as well! I put my updated hacks back an hour ago and it still works fine. That means the reason why my game wouldnt work was just ONE single file!!

ohhh, they are adorable and have wonderful names *takes notes*. I am always out of names, so I end up chosing something cheesy, and editing them later, lol!

I just had a problem with my game, too. I got AL today and none of my families would load... Or... Load forever, but the game wouldnt start, KWIM? For me, it was a file called d1cb0b87b2e68b6d11643cefaa10e076_0001.package  Once I removed it, my game worked fine. I have no clue what it is either. I hope you get your problem solved fast! I am so relieved I got mine solved. Altho it took me 3 hours, I am happy the problem is not my computer, but just a corrupt (or incompatible) file! Good Luck!
Just a suggion, I first deleted all my hacks, then runned Delphy's Downloads Organiser, so I found a few more hacks I forgot I had. Then I checked the logs in my sims 2 folder, named custom content. The file which caused the problem was the fime on top. I am not sure if this is a coincidence tho:)

Here's my favourite cat picture. It's just so funny.. BUT.. poor Kitty!!!

Cameron... He's about to be the main caracter of my pictures thread (in case someone is interested....)

Why isn't he reaaaaaaal? *whines* I have him since he's a teen. I created his parents and he came up once I clicked on the pacifier. At first he was just cute... Now, by the time, he's looking more and more sexy.

Here he is as a teen



Now (and still) in college)







Here's Malakai

those outfits are just too cute! my youngest actually had once of the green onesies, except his was blue. The one with the snowman. I think it was Old Navy or GAP.
I wanted to download one outfit, but I cant figure out how to get to your new site.... and clicking the infant clothing link in your signature leads me to a dead page! Just thought I'd let you know!
Keep up the great work!!

I am just glad I didnt lose this community! I enjoyed being a part of it and was so sad when I thought this would al break apart!

yeah, I even deleted it out of the recycling bin. it's nowhere on my computer. did a livesearch on my computer, and didnt get any results... it is still in the game... when starting the game, i checked if it appears in the list of the custom content you can enable and disable before playing, and it is not in that list either.
Forgot to mention that it is the insimenator for me as well. I also wanted to replace it with the sim blender. I do have all the EP's up to Free Time (which means I am only missing AL) and have all the stuff packs except IKEA, Kitchen and Bath and Mansion and Garden...
I will delete the files you suggested and see what happens. I'll let you know!
Thanks!


*edit*

after deleting the .cache files and the files in my thumbnail folder, I runned my game, entered a lot, and the insim, along with the many objects coming with it, was still in the catalogue. Then, I saw something I didnt see before (why? no clue!). You know you can delete hair and clothing out of the catalogues if you no longer need them, right? well, there's a small trashcan icon on the right side of the catalogue for objects as well. I just selected the main insimenator (the machine) icon, selected the trashcan and the machine and the other insim objects were GONE! I saved, and exited the game. However I am tempted to rerun it and check if it is REALLY gone now!!!! who knows, maybe it comes back all by itsself?

*second edit*

It's GONE *dances*.

Eightball, I attached a screenshot on where to find the small trashcan, so you can show your wife how to get rid of the insim. Of course it is not the insim in the pic (since i won't put it back just to take apic, lol), but yeah, just select the insim machine, then the trashcan, confirm you want to delete it,a nd it will be gone! Good Luck!!!


also thanks to amc462000 for your help!

here's what I did. It worked for me. I just copied my downloads folder to the desktop. deleted the one in the ea games folder. runned my game. exited the game again. placed the downloads folder where it belongs (ea games/sims2.. etc). runned the game again. and all of my cc appeared again good luck!!

I decided to remove a hack in my game because I feel it was incompatible with a few other hacks I downloaded. I deleted the file out of the download folder and off the lots in my game. However, it still apprears in the catalogue. I searched on my computer to see if the file is still hiding somewhere (you never know...), but my computer can't come up with anything either. did anyone have the same problem? does anyone know what I can do about it? thanks in advance

I just found out about this!! Thank you so much!

ohhh! I can't wait auntiejo!!
