Decrapified Store content missing in downloaded lots
Jessnova:
What makes me confused is why decrapping the Lot file doesn't make things match up. And even more confusing is that some people seem to have managed to get these lots working without knowing exactly what it was that fixed it.
I don't download lots often, but I want the interiors to look like they were intended to on those rare occasions that I AM seduced by some sweet architecture. As is the case with those candlelight castles. Meh. I'm going to try a couple more things and then give up on it.

If I wasn't so lazy I'd do some troubleshooting, IF. I don't use other peoples lots so I don't really care, but there is a lot I built using packages that I'd like to get right. Since now I use sims3packs, and I don't feel like replacing everything in the lot.
Jessnova:
All right. I semi-fixed my problem by replacing my decrapped Store content with all of Moryrie's untouched files. I left the decrapified lot installed to test, and it worked fine. I might try launcher installing the original lot for an untouched copy of that, but I don't see that it's really needed.
Whelp, now I know.

I wish I knew a lot better what s3rc does. Based on what I experienced so far, "s3rcing" a store Sims3pack (without "decrapping") changes it enough to be able to extract packages that can be modified by s3pe or merged or just used by Sims3 directly and still "work" in lots. If I understood correctly, the "decrapped" Sims3pack and packages become different objects and can't be "recognized".

Right, which is how it tricks the game into thinking it's not a store item, thus, letting it install. So maybe it is just a matter of decrapped vs. vanilla then. I was under the impression that S3RC simply just compressed items, I had no idea it let you open up store cc, good to know.
