Help! Accidentally stopped .package files from being openable
neriana:
You don't need to open .package files to install them, just copy them into your My Documents/Ea Games/Sims 2/Downloads folder.
simsfreq:
Well that's what I thought I remembered (had a long break from playing sims) but I downloaded some bedding and put it in my downloads folder and it didn't appear in-game until I double-clicked the file and it came up with a message saying it had installed.
Venusy:
That was a .SIMS2PACK, not a .package. And .SIMS2PACKs should be opening with Clean Installer (or *blech* the EAxis installer), not SimPE or BodyShop (.packages should still be opening in SimPE or in nothing at all if you don't have SimPE installed).

Or you could left click on a package file and "open with", then "choose program", then find simpe on the list and click the box that says "always use this program" while you have simpe selected then click ok.
That is, if you are using windows. No idea how to take things off the list, but firefox is on my list or programs to open packages, and since i've done the above procedure with simpe it hasn't given me a problem.
Left click? I think it is right click, isn't it?

Normally it is, but I seem to remember Windows having a "lefty flip" option for people who are left handed, so there's a chance that morriganrant might be using that.
