No, no you don't want your game to run/look/behave like mine, because my game tends to run in modder-debug-mode. The non-debug stuff gets released here.

I don't suppose you would share your mod folder? I imagine I'd want my game to run/look/behave like yours, and I am just trying TS4 for the first time now. It's pretty overwhelming, looking through all the mods at this point.

Did the fences reappear when you did this? If the fences reappear when you do this, send me the original package and I will take a look at it.

Okay thanks for your respones! I ended up just downloaded store content as undecrapped package files to avoid the whole store fixes / decrap situation that I fear I am too dumb to understand. Thanks anyway to trying to help out. 

You can't recompress an encrypted pack because the index that contains the sizes of everything in it can't be read.

Oh okay. The reason why I got confused was as I was looking around with this whole store content issue. I can across someone who supposedly has store content as package files undecrapped which means that store fixes aren't necessary. I always assumed decrap was necessary to allow other programs to access the encrypted sims3pack file. Well, apparently just using the recompress supposedly also unlocks this without jumbling the whole file to the point where certain accessories etc go missing so no store fixes required. But I mostly here about this whole decrap and decrap store fixed when it comes to arrd store content so it did make me confused. Would a sims3pack that was only recompressed work to be downloaded through the launcher or is it here where the decrap becomes necessary to remove some extra encryption?

Recompress is mostly about repacking the file to save disk space, and doesn't materially alter any of the innards of the file. Decrapify attempts to remove the tags that prevent the content from loading in the game.

This might be unrelated but I didn't know there was a difference until just now. Whats the difference between recompressing and decrappin? Why would I do decrap over recompress when it does the same but decrap also jumbles the file and need store fixes. Why don't people just recompress instead?

Thanks!

If you clear out your mailbox I could chat to you there.

I somehow don't think that's actually going to help in any way, but it probably won't hurt, either.
