Create-A-World Tips, Tricks, and Annoyances
meresimp:
I have some problems with the Edit in Game that I heard many others have too.
(If this has been covered somewhere here, please provide me with a link. TY - I couldn't find it on my own ;))
I can't use EIG unless I move the DCCache folder away from C:\Documents \Electronic Arts\The Sims 3
But that leaves me with very limited possibilities in the buy and build mode
Not only third hand CC disappears - so does all Store items
And the things you use to decorate your houses disappear if you put down a lot you made in another world in your new CAW project
It is so frustrating. >:(
You will only be able to upload a world with base game items in buildings
You can't use all the houses you have spend time decorating
- I can understand it because that way you would give away Store items for free. - And EA would of course not allow that
But I only wish they where there to see if people who downloaded your world possessed them - like in TS2
Any ideas or comments on that?

They shouldn't be disappearing completely. They will not show up in CAW; I'm not sure why but CC does not show in CAW. The stuff is still there. When you deploy the world they should be there. The only things I have come across that CAW can't retain upon deployment are the ghosts and planted vegetables (Vegetables from BuyDeBug work fine but are of normal quality). Try deploying the world and see if the stuff is there.

No they won't disappearing completely. They are still in the catalog in my game :)
But I can't use them in "Edit in Game"
and if I put down a lot from my bin in EIG only basegame-stuff will show - also after deploying the world...
J. M. Pescado:
Edit-In-Game does not like massive DBC DCCaches for some reason. It is not known why this is the case, but if you have 800 megs of crap in there, it will not be happy. There's a way around this, which involves temporarily reverting to the old DBC-dropped-in-packages-tree method, and I have a widget that performs this conversion automatically, but it is not for stupids.

Then it's probably not for me.... ;D
But thanks anyway.
The biggest problem for me is that my buildings will look so bad when I upload them if I am not very careful not to use anything else but basegame stuff
