Last ditch effort on cc in Generations
stim:
Wharrrgarrrbl!! So I stopped playing a year ago and for some unholy reason I thought I'd pick it up again.
Arrr'd LN, OL, and Generations, and like an idiot, installed them all in one gleeful go. And while it works, the CC is gone. Oh gawd, I know, I need to SEARCH MOAR and pay attention.
Searched moar. Searched everywhere. Here, google, MTS. Followed every tutorial I could find. Started over. Killed the old cc method, tried the new one. Tried the new one five times each with two different approaches. Went back to the old method. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.
It is all gone. Even shit that was in my SuperOfficialKosher downloads folder that was gainfully gotten isn't showing up in the launcher (I know. I'm on a mac though, so not many options). Seriously. Nothing is showing up. Not even riverview (and I actually purchased the base game and I downloaded and installed that with a reg code and everything, so if nothing else, Riverview should show up).
I'm really annoyed. Is there anything I have possibly missed before I go all scorched earth on this? The only thing I have not been able to do is patch up to 1.22, which seems to be problem combo of a) not being legit and b) having a mac. Searched for a workaround on that one, too. Fail whale on that end.

There's nothing wrong with this.

How you can mess this up is beyond me. Instructions

How don't even want to know how you've done this. Sim3packs that are in your downloads folder automatically show up in the launcher. You might just want to reinstall the games completely.

If you're not using cracks, which you shouldn't be, you should have no problem patching.
Then again you are on a Mac, so who knows. Macs and sims do not mesh well together. Then again so do Macs and people that can't follow directions.

Yet so many people do, then constantly insist they have done everything right, even when it doesn't work. Then they blindly insist everything is right, and fail to take any advice, or follow any suggestions to try and fix the problem because in their mind everything is already right.

This doesn't just apply to Mac users, plenty of windoze users out there have the same problem when it comes to following directions.
