Decrapify vs. manual .dbc files?

Nah, he'll just ignore you if he doesn't feel your question needs answering.
Hmm. Think I'll just try it again first. ;D
Chain_Reaction:
I also had the same issue Marie is having. I dropped them on s3rc.exe only and then tried installing, it said they were installed but it lied. I then tried dropping them on decrapify.exe but it didn't appear to do anything as it returned rather quickly (probably because it was already ran through s3rc?). I then tried installing again and got the same result. I then got fed up and got an old prepatched copy of TS3EP01.exe and renamed it to TS3SP01.exe and threw it in Program Files/HELS/Game/Bin which reverted the launcher back to before they screwed the pirates and it all installed fine. Then I dragged the dbc files to my Mods folder and put my original SP exe back and went on my way.

I've put a decrapified .sims3pack here, you're welcome to try it and see if it works for you:

It definitely works for me, so if it doesn't work for you, that might narrow things down a bit.
Your file works for me, too. But when I try decrapifying, etc., myself, it won't work. I deleted DCBackup, DCCache, Installed Worlds, and all cache files first.
It's not like decrapifying is a complicated process, but I feel like I'm still missing something. ::)
GnatGoSplat:
If my file works for you, then you're definitely having a problem with the decrapification.
Did you put BOTH decrapify.exe and s3rc.exe on your desktop? Both files must be there, since decrapify.exe calls s3rc.exe. Then drag all your .sims3packs onto the desktop first. When they're on the desktop, drag them all on top of decrapify.exe. A DOS window should pop up listing each .sims3pack. When complete (DOS window closes on its own), drag all .sims3packs back to your Downloads folder.
Those are the exact steps I took which worked perfectly.

CM are you making sure to decrapify your saved games and library as well? I'm not sure if that makes a difference to the launcher though.
I don't have a Library folder yet, and I thought I'd decrapify my saved game after decrapifying my .sims3packs. But I'll try that in reverse later and see what happens. (I PM'ed Pes earlier, too.)

I extracted both to the same folder.
@TashaFaun and GnatGoSplat: Do you guys use 3booter and FPSlimiter? I do; might that have something to do with it?
