Downloaded lots won't show up no matter what I do Hi, I have downloaded some pretty residential lots from Modthesims and Parsimonious and installed them into the Downloads folder via Sim2Pack Clean Installer. However, for some reason the lots didn't show up in the Lot&Houses bin even though all other CC, ie furniture appear in Buy Mode. Custom Content is absolutely enable. I just started playing Sims 2 since last week and have installed Sims 2, University, Nightlife, Open for Business, Seasons, Family Fun Stuff and H&M Fashion Stuff.
I did pay close attention to the EPs required for each lot and only chose simple houses like these ones: Please tell me what's the problem here, I'm almost given up now Thanks in advance!

Hi All, I have come up against a problem with Sims2Pack Clean Installer in that it will install and it does work to install lots but then some lots are missing in game and I have noticed it will allow duplicate CC that are attached to lots already downloaded which it did not do before?

Hello, I am having a similar problem but this didn't seem to work for me (possible that I'm a bit of a dud!), Basically, I have a downloads folder that I've made in /library/Containers/com.aspyr.sims2.appstore/Data/Library/Application Support/Aspyr/The Sims 2/Downloads And I've made a couple of folders within this to organise it, e.g. Hair, lots, clothes, furniture etc. But when I download them (mostly using The Sims Resource) and then unzip them using 7zX so the file is saved as something like ModernBachelorhome.Sims2Pack.7z instead of ModernBachelorhome.Sims2Pack But when I go into the game (I've changed the settings to enable custom content) they just aren't there. What am I doing wrong?
I have a Mac if that makes any difference, and I'm using Sims 2 Super Collection. Thank you so much! Way to give completely incorrect answers while chastising them for necromancy.
Sims2pack's don't just go in your downloads folder, you need to use the game installer to actually install them. Double click, or the Mac equivalent, to open them with the games installer. Also, I don't think that is even the correct file path for cc, try reading this:. It's for the CEP, but it gives the file path for downloads on newer macs.
