EA/Maxis "Sim2" content disappeared. Please help...
cereus:
I agree. It's a mess. I am going to install it on my laptop. If all the CAS items are on the laptop display, I'll know it's my desktop computer which means a total wipe of my hard drive.
If the CAS items are missing on the laptop, it means a trip to Wal-Mart tonight. (Hate that, because there's a ton of snow out there. Ok, not exactly a ton, but lots.)
I'm still hoping one of MATY's genius techs can help. **whine,whimper,beg**
Tarlia:
I notice that the Pleasure aspiration, which should come with NightLife, is also missing. Looks like the NightLife installation messed up this time? What happens if you uninstall NL?
What about objects/furniture, does it show up? Does NL stuff show up? Can you add a downtown, and do the lots work?
cereus:
Tarlia, the pictures are of the reinstalled base game only. The furniture seems to be okay at this point.
The panels were empty when I reinstalled NightLife.

I installed Sims2 base game on laptop. So far, I have faces, hairstyles, makeup, clothes, etc.
Getting ready to install University. I'm wondering if I might have downloaded something that would have
caused this, such as a replacement or deletion of defaults in CAS thumbnails. I thought, perhaps, this was
a possiblilty when I uninstalled my game and eps, stuff packs.
But, that shouldn't be causing this on a reinstall, should it?
morriganrant:
....are you modifying the install path for the expansions in any way? It looks to me as if you may be installing the expansions on top of the base game files instead of leaving them to default.
What is the install path for the Base game? What install path are the expansions using when you install them?
cereus:
Hi morriganrant. The install path for the Sims2 base game in C: program files/EA Games/The Sims2. The following subfolders in that file are CSBin, Support, TSBin, TSData
The second path is: Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2. The following subfolders in that file are Camera, Collections, Config, Logs, LotCatalog, Movies, Music, Neighborhoods, SC4Terrains, Storytelling, Teleport, Thumbnails, and then the Groups.cache
