EA store stuff in *.dbc format - a torrent
Alwayswatching:
Do you have World Adventures or not?
This is what worked for me, and I have WA. If you don't... Just put them in the same folders in "The Sims 3," the folder structures are more or less exactly the same.
First make sure the Resource.cfg is as follows; (if you dont know how to edit it, change .cfg to .txt then change it back when done. If you can't do that, google it, bitch.)
Code:
Priority 500
DirectoryFiles Mods/Packages/... autoupdate
PackedFile Mods/Packages/*.package
PackedFile Mods/Packages/*/*.package
PackedFile Mods/Packages/*/*/*.package
PackedFile Mods/Packages/*/*/*/*.package
PackedFile Mods/Packages/*/*/*/*/*.package
PackedFile Mods/Packages/*.dbc
PackedFile Mods/Packages/*/*.dbc
Secondly, put all the .dbc files in Mods/Packages, right snug next to AwesomeMod.
If you download Skadi's new January store stuff, simply rename the file "dcdb3.dbc" and put it in with the others.
The Riverview file goes in The Sims 3/GameData/Shared/NonPackaged/Worlds.

So the .dbc files should be in both places? Would just copying them there be good enough?
Thanks, btw :)

You don't even have to change the .txt extension. Just open with the text program of your choice. I have Wordpad set to open .cfg files now. All I have to do is double click one, save it when I'm finished. No extension changes at all.

My .dbc files are only in one place; the Packages folder in The Sims 3 World Adventures folder.

I know, I'm not the best in things like these, but now I feel really idiotic.
And don't get me wrong, I can open Resource.cfg file, but I don't know exactly what should I type in. The complete folder locations+ filenames, or only the location of each dbc file? Oh, and I should leave the Resource file in the Programfiles/Sims3 WA folder...or place it into the Mods folder? Should I use the full line...like C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims3 etc... or how?
