Make Sure CompressorizerRedux has the latest s3rc http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,15129.0.html

There seems to be some confusion regarding the steps you need to take to install content from the store.  The answers are spread out over a few posts, so I thought I would make 1 post to consolidate them.  Below is a step by step walkthrough of what I've been doing (note: I have installed a legal copy, but this seems to be working people with the RZR version as well).  If you are having problems, I hope this helps.

How to install custom content

• 1.  Download the file.  It will probably be a .zip or .rar file, but it could be a .Sims3Pack file as well.
• 2.  Is it a .Sims3Pack file?  If yes, skip this step and go to #3.  If no, unzip the file (using 7zip, winrar, etc.) and extract the .Sims3Pack file(s) to someplace you can find again.
• 3.  Launch Compressorizor Redux (http://forum.jfade.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=468) and click on the "Add Files to List" button in the lower left hand.  Browse to the file where you extracted the .Sims3Pack file(s)  (note: some files have already been through this tool before they were uploaded, but it doesn't hurt to do it again if you are not sure).
• 4.  Click the "Go" button in the middle bottom.  Some windows will flash up and disappear.  You will get a pop up box saying that the operation was successful.  Click OK.
• 5.  Is the .Sims3Pack a Patterns, Lots, Households and Sims?  If yes, install using the 3Viewer http://forum.jfade.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=466 and you're done, I think (I haven't done this yet, so I have no further details on it).  If no, go to step #6.
• 6.  Double click on the .Sims3Pack, the Sims 3 Launcher will run and you will see your .Sims3Pack listed as a new item in the download section.  A second window, the installer, will pop up and if everything works, will give you a Success! message.  Click okay and you're done.  I'm blocking the launcher from phoning home and everything is still installing correctly, I'm not sure what happens if you don't block it.
• 7.  You can delete/move the .Sims3Pack files in the Downloads folder in your "My Documents" folder and you can delete all files from the DCBackup file without removing the CC you just installed.

If there are any other MAC users out there or maybe any windows users having trouble, this is what I did to get all the files to work for me, except the Tiki Set.  You will have to have a Windows Computer to use the Programs but your game doesn't have to be installed on the Windows to use them, I used my Husbands work computer and didn't have any problems.

1 Run Compressor
2 Use the Multi Installer  ( I just used a folder on my desktop to extract the files)
3 Put .package files in the DC Backup
4 Launch Installer  & Install
That's it.

Full Storybook Set:

[Caraleede]

Full Storybook Set:

http://rapidshare.com/files/239755346/Stbkset.rar.html

I can confirm that the Storybook set is not compatible with the RLD version - you apparently have to update in order to install it.

But yes, all files are installed via the launcher, the launcher can open the packages and install them.

[J. M. Pescado]

Looks like store packages are nastygrammed. News at 10.

[jfade]

I'm lurking on #grah. Someone there tried to install these with a patched RZR download and got a "You are playing a non-final, unauthorized copy of The Sims 3..." message. Also jfade says that his viewer/installer is likely to be up tonight, so there will be that to try in not too long.

Yup. The 3Viewer can be played with by clicking here to download it. It will extract the content from Sims3Pack files and install the ones that we have a known workaround for. Any files we don't have a workaround for are still extracted and dumped into the temp directory under the program. From there, you can play with them and try to figure out how to install them sans-launcher if you'd like... Just be sure to share how you did it once you do.

[polina]

OK, you must download these files

http://rapidshare.com/files/239883102/Rview.part1.rar.html
http://rapidshare.com/files/239885587/Rview.part2.rar.html
http://rapidshare.com/files/239896578/DCC.rar.html

put them in your sims 3 folder and u will have Riverview, Riverview objects, full storybook set, 2 dresses, 2 hairs and 1 new pattern

[polina]

in My Documents

[polina]

maybe this will help you

[polina]

Here is full Sims 3 Folder from my docs. No saves and configs:

Ok I purchased the game last night and installed.  This morning I purchased a single hair file under the Adult category.
I installed via the launcher and the file ended up in Document/ElectronicArts/Thesims3/Downloads. 
Then I noticed that in CAS the hair I purchased under the Adult Catagorey (paid 100 pts.) Shows up for Teen, Young Adult, Adult and Elder.  So it doesn't appear as if you have to purchase each file seperatly.

Unfortunatly I do not have time to post file as I am going to be late for work messing around with this. 

Will try to post when I get home. It was the shorter choppy style (not the shortest style)

[DLMulsow]

Thank you Polina for the downloads, unfortunately rapidshare does bite.

I was only able to get one file, the Storybook set.

For those with same issues with Rapidshare, here is the Mediafire link:
http://www.mediafire.com/?ingyjm4o1el

Also, I have the official released game, not Reloaded.  After unraring the file, it turns into a cute little file with a plumbob.  (sims3pack)

All I did was drag it and drop it into the Downloads folder.  I have yet to check and see if it works, I will edit this post when I get that opportunity.

[fugitivechrist]

For those having issues with rapidshare, the sims3pack files are available on drop.io
Riverview http://drop.io/sims3store_1
Storybook, 2 clothings 2 hairs http://drop.io/sims3store_2

For any other links anyone posts here (rapidshare or otherwise) that is new content, I'll download and mirror on drop.io. Links will be on http://mavrev.com/hosted/sims/shopping-list/ and will be up to date.

[Mixreality]

hobbitgrl - Pescado has a tool here. Drag and drop the sims3packs you've got over Pescado's file. Then use the launcher and it should be fine.

(Riverview still doesn't work though.)

ETA - Ah, sorry, you're on a Mac. I can't read 

[catfish]

I used my points and got some items:
The four male hairs (not the accessory ones) as well as the four male hairs for children.
Two female hairs (the short one with bangs and the wavy one).
Four female tops (the olive one with necklace and short sleeves, the black and red lace up one with the turtleneck, the brown shirt with puffy sleeves that's over a black sweater, and the white top with a pink puffy sleeved sweater type thing over it).
Here's a mediafire link with all the items in separate .rar's, you can pick which ones you'd like: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=58876c5e2a21fb1200d27174b47c6657e04e75f6e8ebb871
I ran all the files through Pescado's pack fixer thingy so hopefully they will work.

[fugitivechrist]

There's a list of what's been posted in this topic in the first post, and I have a page up with what I've mirrored to Drop.io (avoid rapidshare's shit) complete with the download links. http://mavrev.com/hosted/sims/shopping-list/

Someone needs to start a concise list of what we have and don't have so we don't get redundancies.

[hobbitgrl]

wow Cwieberdink,  you seem like a  slightly rude person,  for your information when I purchased the Bayside set there was no one who had it, I am sure we were purchasing at the same time.

If no one wants my files I'll just keep them to myself, I was just trying to share.

http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=a721d4f4b901127d6b21be4093fab7aca0fde3228c9f703eb8eada0a1ae8665a

[BlueSoup]

Sigh.  things like this are bound to happen.  It's annoying that I can't get anything else now though.  In any case, I am uploading the Bayside full set now.  Will edit with mediafire link shortly.

http://www.mediafire.com/?zdb4n1m4j0q  Bayside.

IMPORTANT UPDATE - The files have been ran through the obsolete version of Pescado's tool. He said entire process is experimental and these files should not be redistributed. I'll leave the links in, but this post won't be updated.
