You could try downloading them at SimsAsylum: http://simsasylum.com/tfm/index.php?/topic/635-dizzys-mods-for-sims-2/However, I think that Avast is going to complain no matter where you download them from. After all, these are unofficial patches that modify your game executables... that's exactly what viruses do. I'm afraid that I can't guarantee that they are safe. I downloaded them from Dizzy before they disappeared from the internet and my anti-virus didn't complain at that time. [Update:] If you'd like, I could upload just the source code and you could compile them yourself. |

I was asked to supply the installation instructions for the Thumnail Hack and all versions of the hack. Here's what I have: dizzy2 Posted 12 March 2010 - 09:55 PM Something Apartment Life added which I had wanted gone was the constant hammering on thumbnails. Eventually came a way to fix it, although not the way I would have preferred: by modifying the exe file. This is always a last resort, but it is sometimes necessary (as in this instance). This hack modifies your no-CD cracked exe file (TSBin\Sims2EP8.exe) so make sure you back it up first! If you don't use a no-CD crack, then perhaps it's about time to start.  Note: The upx instructions only apply to the noCD for patch1 (r187). To use the thumb3 (for r187), download thumb-old and unpack the Sims2 executable with upx (see http://upx.sourceforge.net). Copy upx.exe to the TSBin folder and perform the following in a cmd box: upx -d Sims2EP8.exe Then double-click on thumb3.exe. Downloads: thumb-old.zip = older versions of this hack: Attached File thumb-old.zip (11.63K) thumb3b.zip = patch for Sims2 AL + patch2 (r194): Attached File thumb3b.zip (2.72K) thumb3b-src.zip = source: Attached File thumb3b-src.zip (929bytes) thumb4.zip = patch for M&G: Attached File thumb4.zip (2.73K) thumb4-src.zip = source: Attached File thumb4-src.zip (939bytes) This post has been edited by dizzy2: 12 March 2010 - 10:00 PM The attached zip file includes all of these versions, plus the source code for the versions specified. |

Those two files are actually one RAR, split into two sections so that they could be uploaded to the site. RAR will combine the two files before extracting. If you extracted from both files, then you should have two identical sets (although I actually got an error when I tried to extract from part 2). You can verify this using the "fc /b" command line program.
In other words, just extract from part 1 and put the results in your Downloads folder.

Which link are you having problems with? The M&G link in the post immediately above yours works just fine. I just downloaded it and extracted the EXE without any problem. At that point, you just backup your old Sims2EP9.exe (rename it to Sims2EP9.bkp), and add the new EXE to that folder. You'll be using the new EXE to run the game. If you are using the launcher to run the game, you'll have to fix your shortcut to run directly from the game EXE instead. Here are some instructions on how to do that: http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Bypassing_Launcher |

TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Can anyone help with error log?

No, no one can help you with this. That's a crash log and is only useful if you have the source code for the game.
There are several options:
- You have bad CC.
- You have a bad save game.
- You have a bad game installation.
- You have a problem with your computer: underpowered, old or bad drivers, overheating, etc.
Go through each of these and try to narrow down the problem.

I already did use it, and read the guide, but it still wont work, I loaded the file that contains the necklace, the file was originally a sims2pack from the exchange, that I installed using sims2pack Clean Installer, so should I edit the package before installing it or after installing it?
Looks like it's time for the lesson on punctuation.  |

Install order doesn't matter. If you have both AL and M&G, then this is not the correct solution to your problem. This is only a solution if you have M&G without AL.
So is this just a game bug? No, that's incorrect. The original issue was not a game bug, but an issue with the mod. You posted in someone else's thread, assuming that their problem was your problem. However, their problem was an issue with a mod which only occurs if someone has M&G and not AL. If you have both AL and M&G, your problem cannot possibly be the same problem. Because of this, it doesn't make sense to implement the solution to their problem. Similar symptoms don't necessarily mean that you have the same problem. |

Find the BHAV with the number specified. Edit it Choose node 5. The Pescado Delete button is on the right side; hover over the icons until you find it.
Be aware that this can cause problems if you don't do it correctly.

Sorry about the necro, but I have one stupid, on-topic question and I can't find the answer in any of the several threads and tutorials (been searching for the past two hours): when installing a clean template, do I, or do I not, delete the contents of the Lots folders?
Do not delete the contents of the Lot folder. |
