Decrapify made store lots disappear from the Library folder

Have you tried re-decrapping the lot package files that get installed in your library folder? Are you using the drag and drop method or the decompressorizer program? I haven't messed around with store lots since the updated decrap files, but I do know it works for lots made by creators. I would suggest, in theory, to use s3cr on the sims pack, open it up with s3pe, extract the lot package, then decrap that and toss it in your library folder; in addition to installing the sims3pack so you get the items.

I'm blaming the Regency Arcade. The Gothic Library and the Olympian Gym went missing for me after the October install as well, but I bought all that stuff so it is not the fault of the decrap method. They were missing from the bin and the launcher even though they were in the download folder. Reinstalling brought them back, and the arcade is there as well. I hadn't said anything as I just assumed I had cc conflict as I had put in some houses and the Late Night bonus clubs.

Ah, great this is very helpful info. I knew it couldn't be a case of "I R DOING IT WRONG".

@kissing_toast: I usually install multiple sims3pack so I use the Witch batch file method. I think it's been posted and quoted all around MATY. When I was testing the October set I still used the batch file to decrapify it (which shouldn't matter either way) so my guess is that Annette is right and store crap is glitchy. I haven't tried user made content yet but I'm kind of paranoid now about messing around with the files either way so maybe I'll do some more testing after I've got my shot of Pets.

Actually, the same thing happened to me. Everything was working fine, then I added some new stuff and decided to decaprify it. But then a bunch of Riverview buildings went missing. And it was just Riverview, everything else was working fine. Eventually, I just opened a new Riverview, added the missing buildings to my library, and plopped said buildings on old Riverview. Problem solved.

Will the neighborhood eventually be destroyed in a ball of fire? Dunno. I'm overall less attached to sims 3 worlds. If this had happened in Sims 2, I'd be pissed.

I just had to reinstall everything and upon installing the Library, Gymnasium and Arcade, they all show up just fine, items and all. I use decrapped sims3packs.
