pretty please bodyshop won't show up.

[auntiejokisses]

i want to make sims and cloth them. but my bodyshop won't open. please help? if not i'll have to turn my game on. i even already removed some hacks.

If you have a lot of custom content, it could take a very long time to open Bodyshop. I usually click on it and then go and do something else for 15 minutes or so.

[auntiejokisses]

i've just tryed again. it still won't open this is the first time it did it. i've never had this problem before.

Try deleting The Sims 2\cigen.package and groups.cache.  If that doesn't work, you may have a mesh for an EP you don't have, or a corrupted mesh.

[auntiejokisses]

what's that? The Sims 2\cigen.package and groups.cac

[Rogue777]

You'll find them in C:\Documents and Settings\[your name]\My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2

Just look for cigen.package and groups.cache

nothing poo it looks like that i have to do everything all over again SH*T F**K D*M
did everything. bodyshop still being stubering

[Chinami]

Do you mean Create-a-sim or just Bodyshop? If bodyshop, which disk do you use to play Sims 2? If it's seasons, go to start then programs and then you go to EA games, then Sims 2 Season then click that bodyshop there.

[auntiejokisses]

ok i'll try that one instead of the bodyshop for H&M

[MissDoh]

Last thing to try if that does not work is to delete the CASthumbnails.package that can be found in the C:/mydocuments/eagames/thesims2/thumbnails folder.

Ah hah! That's your problem, auntiejo. Since you don't play with the H&M (or Celebrations) disc in the drive, those bodyshops won't work. You have to use the disc of the latest expansion pack you have installed, not the latest stuff pack. If it's Pets, use the Pets BS. If it's Seasons, use the Seasons BS.

my bodyshop is working now. thank you. i had to switch back to seasons...
i'm going to be installing another pack which i'm going to be borrowing. and that's the glammor life pack. till i buy my own. so do i still use season's bodyshop. with me using the season's disk?

[ancienthighway]

Keep using Seasons.

[caffeinated.joy]

Yes, you should still use the Seasons disk. When GL first came out, I had to use the GL disc because the game recognized it more as an ep rather than a stuff pack, but since Season is the latest ep release, that's the disc you should use.

thank you and good night.. beddy by for me.. i need to zzzzzzzz
