My Neighborhoods are Missing

<< < (4/4)

Ivy:
I'd just like to add my thanks to everyone for their help with this.  We were all hoping today that all was not lost, as we were all enjoying immensely the stories that ChillyzGrrl was telling.  The fact that she had almost reached the end of her Legacy just makes it hurt all the worse.

As a last resort, SimPE has an option called Fix Neighborhood Uid's. It is specifically designed for the "vanished neighborhood" problem. However, it has a huge warning label on it. It might work, but it could just as easily make things worse (but in your case, I don't see how...). It did solve the problem for me one time, which is why I'm suggesting you try it.

The option is under Tools > Neighborhoods on the top toolbar.

Just in case you made the same mistake I did renumbering my hoods....  Did you renumber everything in your hood files?  You can't just renumber the hood folder from N001 to N004.  You have to renumber every single file in it.  If the files are a mix of numbers, something odd is bound to happen.  Here's how to renumber thoroughly just in case.

"I found a quicker way to mass rename! Yay!

The easy way to do this is:
1) open a command window (Start - run - cmd)
2) go to the folder (cd "My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Neighborhoods\N004", enter)
3) type this command: REN N004* N00Y*
4) go to the first subfolder (cd characters, enter)
5) repeat 3
6) go to the second subfolder (cd .. , cd lots, enter)
7) repeat 3
Cool go to the third subfolder (cd .. , cd Storytelling, enter)
9) repeat 3
10) go to the last subfolder (cd .. , cd Thumbnails, enter)
11) repeat 3

With "Y" being the number of your choice "
