CAS Leprosy: WTF is this? (With illustration!)
Count Four:
How would I know which objects.package to replace? Taking a peek in Windows Explorer, there seems to be one for each EP/SP.
jrd:
Sagana: sure, just grab objects.package out of compressed.zip. No need to reinstall unless you're a masochist.
The only one used is the last one (by game version).
If you have Celebrations, I'm not sure if you need to replace the Celebrations one or the Seasons one, though. EAMaxis did something weird with this SP.
Venusy:
Why don't you just go to the C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 (or the folder which contains all the EP/SP data in subfolders) directory, do a search for "*" (minus quotes), then sort by date modified? That should tell you exactly what you need to replace.
I don't think any of the objects.package files are the problem though. Isn't the bone structure for the face stored in one of the Sims3D packages?
Gwill:
I'd start with the Sims3D packages. They can also be replaced with ones from the install CD without having to run a complete re-install.
Count Four:
Um. All things considered, I think I'm going to go ahead with the reinstall. *coward* Microsquash Windoesnt has a history of getting persnickety when I try to replace things that should be easily replaceable from the discs the things came from in the first place. And if I successfully wrestle Windoesnt to a standstill on the 3D files and it turns out to be the objects.package file and I have to replace that--and then, knowing the Microsquash track record, something else will go wrong-- I may break something cry.
But the big decider is that I only have two EPs, NL and OFB, so it won't take me nearly as long to reinstall as someone who has them all.
