2.3+CC bullshit. I refuse to reinstall AGAIN.

Okay, so I've been scouring various forums and google for the past 24 hours and I can't find a working answer to my problem. basically the launcher refuses to install about 70% of all my sims3packs, it goes through the motions, saying either "package already installed" or success. But yeah, that's pointless. Because either way, the installed icon doesn't pop up next to the file and therefore it's not in the game. I've tried the .dbc trick copied it to the packages folder and modded resource.cfg, but it didn't work. I deleted every single cache related garbage in the documents folder. Emptied out the [Stray quote deleted] library folder in the documents folder, emptied out dcbackup folder, even deleted everything in dccache. Then started up the launcher and tried to install everything from scratch. No dice. So I tried the TSR launcher just for shits and giggles. It refuses to even start up on my system. I would just extract all the sims3packs to my mods\packages folder, but that doesn't help me with EA content like Riverview, and etc because I've heard that they're encrypted and probably can't be extracted.
Any suggestions? Because yeah. I'm about to spaz.
As for this sentence:

BTW: I've seen the Riverview fix by coyote, I'll give it a try, sounds like it'll work, but that still doesn't explain how to get the rest of my CC and EA content back into the game.
celestejwilliams:
Regarding the Launcher not installing the sim packs, have you tried removing your packages folder (just to your desktop) and then trying to install through the Launcher?
That worked for me but I was getting a initialization failed error message and I'm using a Mac.

EA is a piece of shit. Seriously, their patches do more harm than good. All my wonderful custom content is gone. >:(

Actually, EAxis happens to be a prism that turns all kinds of brilliant colored lights into a fecal brown.

I'm more annoyed that when I installed and patched earlier, it was working - except my game had decided to take -every- property and place it beneath the rest of the map.
I reinstalled and now it refuses to load saying I don't have matching versions of the game.
EA and their shoddy coding gets more annoying than whether the CC will work. When the game itself won't? That's something that makes me want to go across the continent and go on a killing spree.
