FrameWork doesn't work anymore on a specific machine

<< < (2/2)

Azureale:
The extension is fine. Someone on MTS2 suggested I copy the whole "The Sims 3" directory from my husband's computer to mine. Still no custom content showing up ... (in fact I installed the game on my son's computer too because his machine is very similar too mine and runs windows 7 64 bits too, so I copied his game -which runs fine with custom contents showing up- to my computer).

I unistalled some recent software too. *.cfg files are associated to notepad but I always did/do that. There are other resource.cfg files in the game, I guess they work fine because my game is running without obvious problem (I didn't actually play, just launched, checked for cc and quit).

I am running out of ideas now.

riggs:
Didn't you say that you had add-ons installed previously (WA/HELS)? If so, I'm wondering if there aren't remnants in the registry that keep the basic framework installation from working properly. In other words, maybe the game needs WA and/or HELS frameworks, even though those packages aren't currently installed.

If that seems possible, I'd try one of the following:

1. Create empty WA and/or HELS folders in Program Files (x86) and add the frameworks.
2. Run a registry cleaner.
3. Go ahead and install WA and/or HELS and install the frameworks. (Of course, you'd need the new HELS-ready awesome mod.)

Azureale:
Yes I had WA and HELS installed, so thanks for your suggestion, I am giving a go at it very soon.


edit : You were right Riggs. I had to reinstall both WA and HELS to get my cc to show up again (creating just the directories with framework in it didn't work). This was such a stupid waste of time. I now have to fiigure out which registry keys prevent the framework to work if I want to uninstall the addons because I don't want a computer to win against me  :P.

It is very strange that nobody else encountered this problem.

Thank you very much Riggs, at least I know why now even if I don't don't know how.
