...more to the point I've just been to lazy to look too hard ha ha!
Don't admit to being lazy. I don't find it the least bit funny. If you come to a board asking for help it should be because you've tried everything you can.
because actually DOING THE WORK is far less unpleasant than the entire "ACTUALLY TALKING TO PEOPLE" thing. Ugh. People. Bleck.
And that's why I love you

Ok I renamed the folder and it gives me this message:
The Sims 2 is not installed on the system, or some required files have been deleted. This expansion pack requires The Sims 2 in order to run. Please install The Sims 2 before attempting to run this application.
I have the base game, uni, NL and OFB installed with the disks, everything else is the downloaded versions... I have everything except teen style, kitchen and bath and ikea...
Moderator edit: double posting fixed.

well MY point was I'm fairly intellegent when it comes to figuring things out, but not when its a bunch of techy stuff... ie digging into the guts of the game or game files when I don't even know what I'm looking for. I don't have the time or the brain power after work to think that hard to figure it out on my own... plus, my game is borked enough already. With my luck I'll go messing it up worse... sigh. I'm about ready just reinstall it all. ANY other suggestions?

ok I figured out the regen thing, its the folder in my documents that regens, not program files... but it didn't help. Same problem in the new one... what the hell? grrrrr. And I did try left clicking with the keypad on my laptop, so I know its not my mouse, I don't appear to have any stuck keys or anything of that nature... just random borkedness I guess. I so don't want to reinstall everything :(
Edit by Moderator: double posting fixed: please cut it out!

And OUR point is that if you won't do it for yourself, we don't want to do it for you. If you have exhausted all reasonable options, that's another matter. If you're going to come here and go "boo hoo, I'm dumb and lazy! Here, fix it!" ....um no.

OMG people I'm not not crying boo hoo saying I'm dumb and I made the mistake of saying "lazy" shoot me. Its not being lazy, I just mean when it comes to guts of the game and getting into files and stuff like that I'm LOST... ok? Does that make sense? You guys really like to tear people up... sometimes funny... but some of us are actually mature intellegent adults with jobs and families who don't have HOURS to pour through hundreds of posts trying to find a solution, and actually admire those of you, like J.M. who are very smart and knowledgeable about these kinds of things... that's why we COME HERE. Go pick on the idiots who can't form a complete sentance, I'm giving you all a compliment by saying you're smarter than me about certain things... obviously only CERTAIN things. Forget it, I'll just redo the whole damn thing. Thanks anyway to those of you who actually did try to help.
And by the way... I exhausted everything I could think of, find, had tried before etc etc or BELIEVE ME... I WOULDN'T have come on here.
Ok, going back to being a lurker now, its much safer that way. And since I'm sure I won't be posting for awhile, thank you J.M. for this site, I have found many useful solutions on here in the posts and wouldn't play the game without your hacks. You also crack me up.
