Another total mess
cwieberdink:
Well, now I've really done it and I'm not even sure what I've done. :'( I could not get my custom sim content (clothes, hair, eyes, makeup, jewelry, etc) to show up anywhere, even in bodyshop, even though it was in my downloads folder. Finally, I used SimPE to make backups of all my neighborhoods, moved my downloads to my desktop and re-installed NL. Went into bodyshop, YEAH, cc all there. Okay. I copied and pasted my neighborhoods back over from SimPE backup. Went into the game.... ALL houses are missing from downtown, all buildings completely. Also from SimState University. Neighborhood decorations are there, but no buildings whatsoever. Even Maxis ones. In the base neighborhood (pleasantview) only the Maxis houses are present. NONE of my families. None of my houses. All Maxis families are there in the base neighborhood, but no one is at SimState. All families show up in SimPE and in the neighborhood folder under characters. SO WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? What have I done and what did I do wrong? ARRGH!

did you check the health of your files using SimPE you could have a unhealthy file corrupting eevery thing in the saved sims folder it could be something as simple as a Tshirt causing an issue. I would run a diagnostic health Scan using SimPE and see if SimPe can pinpoint the problem file and fix it. worst case scenario SimPe cant Find the issue and a total reinstall would be necessary.it takes SimPe a good thirty minutes or longer to run a Scan if you have a large Sims2 File and a ton of downloads like I do.

Sigh. I'll try that, thanks. I didn't know SimPE could do that. I'm still really a noob. I'm learning, but I don't have a ton of time to devote to it. At least all my family character files are saved.

:'( Well, did you see it? It was visible from outer space, ya know. :P I ended up uninstalling everything and reinstalling from the ground up. Every time I went in, more stuff was wrong until finally even after a reinstall there were no neighborhoods at all, forget about buildings, there were no neighborhoods! ??? ???
So. Here I go again. Let's home the SimPE backups weren't what FUBAR'ed it in the first place and once I've gone in and created the uni, the downtowns, etc., that I can restore some semblence of my former little pixel lives. Sigh.
