1  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / Pudding Factory / Re: The TS3 Store: post your questions, updates, and tech help here on: 2010 October 16, 21:04:04
I am having a problem installing barnacle bay. I've read quite a bit on the forums and also used the search feature quite extensively before I even dared to ask about my problem on these forums.  Wink
I downloaded the barnacle bay file from the site, I decrapified the file, installed it and placed it in the downloads folder which I read above should work. It shows it being installed in the download manager but it is not in the game. My game also has the latest updates so there is no problem there. I followed the directions on how I am supposed to decrapify, and that seemed to go fine. I am not sure if I am still doing something wrong or it's just being how the sims typically gets and there is no discernible reason for it to not be working.


 

Try this:

1) Go to: Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\InstalledWorlds
2) Cut the file: Barnacle Bay.world
3) Paste in: Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\GameData\Shared\NonPackaged\Worlds

Run the game to see if Barnacle Bay shows up.

See I think that is my biggest problem. I can't get the barnacle bay.world file. Even though it is showing as installed on the launcher it isn't in the installed worlds folder.
Although I think your solution would fix the problem if i had the world file.

I'm having the same problem. I've also never been able to use riverview or any other downloaded world. ;P



Ok it decided to work, but not because of anything I actually did. I wish it was so I could tell you.  Undecided I just kept trying and it decided to work.

4  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / The World Of Pudding / Re: Riverview has not worked in my game since first patch!? what can i do? on: 2009 December 18, 04:42:25
My game is updated. No WA though, I am not even touching that for awhile. When i I first got the game i I only played r Riverview, after i I freely downloaded it using EADM. Now since the first patch it installs "successfully" yet it's not an option for me to use in the game. I click on the list and it only gives me the option to play s Sunset v Valley. w Whyy is this?
I have custom stuff, but even w/out custom stuff it wasn't showing up. I've tried deleting it and reinstalling it (r Riverview), it still doesn't wanna won't work. Can/Could anyone spare a sec and tell me whats wrong?!  Huh

Grammar and punctuation are important. Please not to be abusing the grammar, you'll make Grammarcat angry.

Regarding your problem: Have you tried uninstalling the Riverview you have, re-downloading a new copy of Riverview, and installing the newly downloaded copy through the launcher, installing sims3packs being the only thing the launcher is good for?


Thanks for the response. That is actually the first thing I tried. It did not work and I could not find a solution through other sites, which is why I came to you guys.

I didn't realize it was such a hostile commenting environment.  Roll Eyes I can live without Riverview.
Thank you to everyone else who took time to make suggestions.
