TS3 Store Content Fixes (Updated 11/20/12)
kissing_toast:
Fixed the Romanza dresses and the routing issue with the Banquet Fan, updated in my thread.
I went through the list at the BBS, some things are borked, some are not. This is what I found in MY game.
1. Muntin Window - borked
2. Fences, stairs and gates from "Ultra Lounge" set - is non recolorable but were made before they made all stairs and stuff recolorable so look at it how you will
3. Hands > Sands * REQUIRES UPDATE *
4. Simetry Seater * REQUIRES UPDATE *
5. ]Bed Barthelme * REQUIRES UPDATE *
6. II-Stand Hamper * REQUIRES FIX * - was made before laundry was possible, decorative item is decorative
7. Vintage Rotary Phone * REQUIRES FIX *
8. Tropical Tiki Fountain * REQUIRES FIX *
9. Moroccan Oasis Fountain * REQUIRES FIX *
10. Faire Frog Fountain * REQUIRES FIX *
11. Tranquil Trickle Fountain * REQUIRES FIX *
12. Fun Time for Kraken Fountain * REQUIRES FIX *
13. Poseidon's Fury * REQUIRES FIX *
14. Fountain of the Sphinx * REQUIRES FIX *
15. Gothique Window - borked
16. Modernism Window - borked
17. Nega Door Archway - borked
18. Not So Private Study Door - borked
19. Flute Forward * REQUIRES FIX * - PEBKAC
Numbers 3, 4 and 5 are category issues, there are too many of these for me to want to attempt to fix. As for the fountains there are no pics of these items or descriptions stating that they are supposed to have any animations. Yes, some of them look like they should, but should and supposed to are two different things. I will look to see if they have effect files in their packages but I doubt it. The doors and windows with clipping problems are an easy-esk fix, might start working on these.
If anyone wants to post links to these items in single sims3packs or untouched packages do so, that will speed things up as I don't feel like hunting down what sets they come from then having to dig around to find these specific items.

*The Ambitions Registration Reward fix by Rothchild:
Issue: You get additional items you're able to sculpt or invent. Although you are able to buy these through buydebug, the option for actually making these items on their corresponding "workbenches" are missing.
Arred version: Decrappified content and possibly package files as well.
Download: Rothchild's thread.
Notes: See original thread.
The 4shared page for this is coming up invalid.
Thank you for the catch. It seems that AM should render this mod useless either way so I'll edit this ASAP. There are other files linked in the thread I realized so I'll check if those work and post them as well.
Well I'm running the Steam version so I can't use Awesomemod. If anyone has a mirror for that fix somewhere it'd be much appreciated.
*Edited to add: I actually own Ambitions so I could install the real Ultimate Career Bundle, but I'm running one big package file that has all the Store crap and bonuses for the entire year decrapped into one file so if I install the real one too I'll get dups.

I didn't know they had a list over at the BBS. I found some re-categorizing fixes here as well but didn't post them on purpose exactly for that very same reason you mentioned. As long as people are able to find the objects and they work properly I personally don't think it's worth the trouble. Besides we are now able to make collections either way.
I'm very happy you're willing to look into the files and fix what you are able to. I understand what the deal is with the hot tubs and fountains so that's no problem at all. Though it wouldn't surprise me that they just couldn't be arsed to make custom animations for the objects. We can only expect you to fix what's truly borked but at least this way we'll know which are and aren't. I could look around if someone already made a mod to make the "Ultra Lounge" stuff recolorable if not then that's too bad. I don't consider them to be borked in that case but I'll post them here so people will know why they can't recolor them.
Speaking about the Romanza dresses, I just experienced this problem in my game. I got my sim preggers by accident so I had to rush the wedding. She had her first baby-bump right after the wedding and switched to that fugly Romanza dress. I'm relieved I won't be running into that problem again.
@morringanrant: thanx, I'll update soonish.

Motoki, I updated the first post. Rothchild uploaded another test version of his fix. He uploaded it to the thread so you should be able to download it. There's another person who took a shot at it as well, Cryssil, and those files are also still available. The links I made in the thread should lead you directly to their posts.
ETA: Maybe there's someone out there who still has the file would be so kindly to re-up it for those that don't use AM.

Here's the Product Registration Fix for the Ambitions stuff. NOT the objects just the fix. I got this one from here when they first came out.

Also, I have no missing pattern in my game so I call PEBKAC on that one. Is there a pic of what that pattern is anywhere? For the Edwardian kitchen, they never made/included the mesh for the counter top. I am working on making one right now.

I thought it could be PEBKAC since I never had any issues with patterns either but I figured I should post it just in case. I just reported the problem as is since the person mentioned that they use package files, I on the other hand decrappify my stuff, so I thought maybe that's the reason they're experiencing problems. I'll update accordingly.
