Now, it is also in its own folder (called "LS CEP").  Could that be the problem?  Should the CEP not be in a folder but be loose with the bundle package? 

That might be it. I have it loose in mine, and it works perfectly.

If it's installed properly, once I pull up RegEdit, it's supposed to say C:\DocumentsandSettings/username>cd
 instead, mine keeps coming up:
C:\DocumentsandSettings/Owner>cd
and I try to direct it by typing in "cd C:\" (like Aphrodita says to) and then I type in "regdelnull hkcu -s" and I get nothing.  According to that, I don't have SecuRom on my computer (bull.  I do too). 
Oh, and I've got Windows XP.

Unless you've changed it, Owner is the default username.

Vecki, I did see your post, and it gave me hope. But, if I recall, you are using Vista, so I was unsure if it would work for XP. I tried it anyway though, but all I got was a message saying it couldn't find "*.*".

EDIT:   DelinvFile worked like a charm!

Invoke a Windows command prompt with full Administrator privileges by typing the following into a Windows command prompt: "at <your current time + 1 minute> /interactive %systemroot%\system32\cmd.exe" e.g. "at 9:02pm /interactive %systemroot%\system32\cmd.exe". This will open a new Administrator command line when the time set has been attained.

I did that, only, it opened up a whole new command window instead of a new command line. Everything else seemed to go pretty smoothly up until this point. Time to bring out the bigger guns I guess.

You have to be kidding me, that was it!

Only one file came up though. I clicked "Y" for it anyway, and unchecked the "hide protected operating system files", but I can still see them inside SecuROM's subfolder. Did I miss something crutial, or should I try using the Delinvfile?

I've gotten so confused. I just want this to be over with now.

Issue the following command to show the two remaining hidden malformed files: "dir /A". To delete the two remaining hidden malformed files issue the following command: "del /F /AH *". Confirm "yes" for each of the two file deletions of the malformed files. Finally, the directory "C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Administrator name>\Application Data\Securom" can be deleted as per normal practice from within Windows explorer.

I've white-knuckled it thus far, but I've run into a snag with the malformed files. 0 file(s) and 3 dir(s) are listed, but there's no option to delete anything. The second one (del /F /AH*) brings up "The Syntax of the command is incorrect". I've spent the entire night reading through this thread, and I can't seem to find an answer to this. What am I doing wrong?

I know, I know! I was just waiting to get everything updated and settled with AL first.
 ::head desk::

EDIT: As far as I can tell, the TV is working great , and looks great in the apts. Has it always been in color? I've been without this TV for so long I can't even remember anymore.   Tongue

Ooooh, I've really missed having this TV in my game. The CD drive just went out on my computer (today), but I'll give it a shot once I get my game up & running again.

AL version worked great in my game, didn't notice any problems. And, I'm finally rid of that TSR set! It was a nice idea, but I hated having doubles of everything, and after the desk crashing... I just didn't trust it.  Your way makes so much more sense. 

I was also wondering, is it ok to pick & choose which packages to use, or do I need the whole set?
10  TS2: Burnination / Peasantry / Re: Instruments by proxy GUID [Update 8-28-08 EP8!] on: 2008 September 28, 22:00:09
I tested out the instruments with the AL version. Aside from two of the organs (Bino Maus, I believe) being blacked out in the catalog, everything worked great.

It's sooo nice to have custom instruments again, and thanks to you guys, I now have all my favorites back.
11  TS2: Burnination / Oops! You Broke It! / Re: The application has crashed. The application will now terminate. on: 2008 July 09, 12:43:05
Well damn, that's not my problem, I have BV. Back to sorting.

Same here, and I have all the EP's and four SP's. Only I'm geting it in"desks", when I come to the catalog page with the Freetime desk. How about you?

I had the same problem, but I found the problem file after following the 50/50 method.
Do you have Anoeskab's (from TSR) "Maxis More Functional: Free Time" set?  The desk file conflicts with the Freetime desk and crashed my game everytime I tried to enter a lot with the desk or the catalog page.

Yep, that was it. Thanks!

I looked into Cubic Bookcase if there are any hidden textures, but no. EAxis typically disables recolor option for the objects with only 1 color (hence CEP).

I made it recolorable, based on the 7/4/2008 version of Goggalor's collection. Choose only one file, Pre-FT / FT version.

Thank you so much for looking into this, and fixing it up. I really appreciate it, and all thehard work you and everyone has been putting into these items.
14  TS2: Burnination / Peasantry / Re: TS2 Store Stuff on: 2008 July 04, 14:04:19
Forgive me if I've missed this somewhere, but, are there any color options for the Cubic bookcase? I'm only seeing one color in-game, and the rest of the set has different variations and woodtones. Just thought I'd bring it up, incase something got blocked somewhere. I'm using Richeif's FT enabled bookcase and TV, if that helps any. Tha

It is just like that. See ?

Yes, it is. Is that all Maxis made for it? I thought it might have had a variation.
