Do you have all the latest patches?  Is the content compatible with your EP's/SP's?  Could be any number of things.  But these are what come to mind right away.

This may end up being moved to the Tech. Help section.

idk?
oh and when i download new stuff
where do i put them?


Re: My computer keeps on the crashing TS2!!!!!!!! - Majick - 16-04-2009 08:52 PM

In your EA > Sims2 >Downloads folder.

You might need to make the Downloads folder.  I had to, but sometimes when you download CC it automatically makes one.  If not, just do "New Folder" and name it Downloads.

what if when you play the sims2
and you try to search for your
new content
and it doesnt appear anywhere
what should I do?

Just a tip, make sure you name the folder 'Downloads' with a capital D, otherwise it wont work. Wink

What kind of content are you looking for that isn't appearing? It could be because it needed a mesh and you haven't downloaded it.

where do i download mesh?


Re: My computer keeps on the crashing TS2!!!!!!!! - Cassie - 16-04-2009 10:52 PM

There should be a link to it wherever you downloaded it from. Sometimes you have to look really closely though, it can be easy to miss a mesh link.

what happens if my folders are zipped?


Re: My computer keeps on the crashing TS2!!!!!!!! - Majick - 16-04-2009 11:29 PM

Then youll need a program that can Unzip them.

Items won't show up until they've been Unzipped, and if they require a mess but you don't have it.

Some stuff the Mesh comes included, or if it's just a recolor of an item already in the game, you might only need to unzip the item.

You can download free versions of WinZip and 7-Zip (I use 7-Zip) to help with unzipping items.
