Neighborhood story is missing _ Solved
Nova:
After creating a new Sims 2 folder, I loaded up all of the premade neighborhoods. I discovered that in each of the hoods the neighborhood story was missing. The story box does pop up, but there are no photos or story blurbs in there. This little problem is driving my ocd into overdrive. My game MUST be perfect!
Anyhoo, I would much appreciate any advice about what may have caused this, and how to fix it.
Simsample:
They should be in Documents\ EA Games\ The Sims 2\ Storytelling. If they aren't then try deleting this folder, and the game will copy a fresh set over. If they still aren't there then they likely aren't in your gamedata files. They should be in Program Files\ EA Games\ The Sims 2\ TSData\ Res\ Userdata\ Storytelling. Fetch them off the install disc if they are gone. The later EP stories are in the corresponding gamedata files- for example Belladonna is in Program Files\ EA Games\ The Sims 2 Apartment Life\ TSData\ Res\ Userdata\ Neighborhoods\ E001\ Storytelling and so on. You can copy those manually to your storytelling folder to make them show up.
Nova:
I'm at a complete loss. I tried all of your suggestions, and my neighborhood stories are still not appearing. Any additional advice? Perhaps throwing my computer out the window is the solution.
Simsample:
:D Don't do that, you may regret it later!
Do you have some files called 'webentry_xxxxx.xml' in there too? (There should be several, with varying numbrs in the names.) Which hoods have you created? Basegame or EP, or both?

This is probably a stupid question but...
Are you using default replacements?
