And I would recommend using .Sims3Packs instead of .packages. That way it won't take forever to load.

I don't know why, but every time I try to install a new package the game lags. I used procmon, and when I go to the file summary it shows all the packages that I just installed are causing the lag (over 40min just to get into a saved game) I've searched for hours to find a solution, but nothing is popping up or I'm looking in the wrong place. Can anyone point me in the right location to look or offer a solution?
Remove the .packages. Something is wrong with them. If they are loading over and over in a row and it looks like an unusual amount of times, take them out. Notify the creator of the .packages and maybe they will fix it. Store .packages that are loading a lot is pretty normal however, they have a lot in them, in which case the issue may be that your computer simple can not handle this extra stuff in your game and you are going to have to cut back to a few choice items. If it's the same .package shown like a hundred times in a row, barely loading anything else, then the issue is still that there is something wrong with it.
Yeah they are the store items. They are the ones I downloaded from the MATY TS3 Store thread. Do the .Sims3Packs actually load faster? I saw another thread that it was the same. Please don't flame me on this I'm just trying to get clarification, because I'm hearing different things on this.

In my game and with my computer, which is two or three years old, .Sims3Packs load normally as the game would load... That is, they don't need more time to load or perhaps only a few seconds more, since I never noticed a difference.

The thing that is so infuriating is that it's only the newest ones that I install. It doesn't matter how many it's all of them, and they are all legit from the TS3 Store thread on here. I think there is something else going on, but I can't put my finger on it.

I am having a problem installing barnacle bay. I've read quite a bit on the forums and also used the search feature quite extensively before I even dared to ask about my problem on these forums. ;)
I downloaded the barnacle bay file from the site, I decrapified the file, installed it and placed it in the downloads folder which I read above should work. It shows it being installed in the download manager but it is not in the game. My game also has the latest updates so there is no problem there. I followed the directions on how I am supposed to decrapify, and that seemed to go fine. I am not sure if I am still doing something wrong or it's just being how the sims typically gets and there is no discernible reason for it to not be working.
Try this:
1) Go to: Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\InstalledWorlds
2) Cut the file: Barnacle Bay.world
3) Paste in: Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\GameData\Shared\NonPackaged\Worlds
Run the game to see if Barnacle Bay shows up.
See I think that is my biggest problem. I can't get the barnacle bay.world file. Even though it is showing as installed on the launcher it isn't in the installed worlds folder.
Although I think your solution would fix the problem if i had the world file.
