I was so pleased when I found your website, with the sims 3 store sets on, I have downloaded a couple of them but they don't install, it always says failed.
Thanks for doing this! I can finally get what I want without paying. I hate how EA makes us buy things that we would like to play with in the Sims 3. So, that's why I say thanks!
hey Thanks for informing me mariaroberts40585, I appreciate it. By the way, do you mean all of them didn't install or just some of them? Are you using Sims 3 Launcher to install them? From the game bin, do you use "S3Launcher.exe" or the "Sims3Launcher.exe"? I use S3Launcher.exe and I have 1.2.7 version to install sims 3 packages. The Animals Abound, panda & frineds, wilderness dreaming don't work for me because they're only compatible with versions 1.4 and higher. Some of the packages only work for higher versions.
Hi. I wanted to let you know that some of the files did not work for me either. I gave the link to a family member in another country, who was able to install all the files just fine! We both run the same version, fully updated to version number 2.2.8 Could the failures have something to do with regional codes, do you think? Also, she and I had tried to trade some files that we purchased from the store but were unable to do that either, same failure problems.
I haven't been able to try the newest set you shared here because even after trying the scripts you shared, I get a file that is 1kb in size and obviously fails.
I truly appreciate you sharing these like this! It means a whole lot to many of us, especially after we paid for a game (World Adventures) that just flat out destroyed any hope of fun. My only fun now comes from trying to hurt EA in the only way possible--their pocketbook. So I would like to download the latest stuff, even if I can never hope to use it in the game. Thanks so much for doing your part. Bless you :) And happy holidays!!
Hi, I was wondering if you could upload the objects, instead of only uploading the sets. I don't like all the stuff in the sets and if i put too much stuff my game will crush.
Anyway thanks for uploading all the stuff in here. It really helps a lot. Happy Holidays
firefox download all just downloads the links you stil need to go into the link and download normally, i love your site but non of the stuff works, i installed the items in sims 3 game launcher it said sucessfully downloaded but when i played the game its not there when i went back to installed content its not there so i went into downloads it wont download into the game im using version 2.3.33.003002 on vista and i have world adventures installed, if its all installed ok why cant i use them in the game?
Hi hippie607 ea made something with the new patches like versions 1.8 and 2.3. If these sims3packs u've downloaded don't work it might be bcuz of the new patch. The other way to make it work is to convert it to a .package file. Watch this vid on how to http://tinyurl.com/ya3rrjf
To install .package files, follow the instructions from here http://tinyurl.com/yhay4lg
i have extracted all the packages and placed them in mods, packages in WA but its still not in my game, i have tryed everything and dont understand what im doing wrong, after i have all the files from the packages do i put them into mods, packages or place them in a diff folder?
Yes put it in the mods/packages folder and it should always be placed there.
So you converted it into .package file from .sims3pack and extracted it to Mods\Packages in the Sims 3 World Adventures folder right?
Have you followed what's in http://tinyurl.com/yhay4lg completely? Ok, if you already followed this take note of the important notes below
*Important notes: make sure that you have these two files "d3dx9_31.dll" and "Resource.cfg" cuz w/out it, the game cannot read .package files into your game- meaning- it won't appear in your game.
yes i have done all that, i have all the correct files and everything is where it should be but its still not in my game, is it because when i install it it created a file in my documents? shall i delete that file? everytime i install a file from mods, packages and open TS3 launcher click show file it shows me my documents and i dont know how to stop it
For .package files custom contents they don't need the Sims3Launcher and you also don't need to put files in the documents Just leave them to EA/WA/Mods/Packages but be sure the d3dx9_31.dll & Resource.cfg are located in the right place.
In my case since I only have the base game, it should look like this http://tinyurl.com/y8nusx7 http://tinyurl.com/y8pqs45
For those who has the Sims 3 World Adventures Expansion Pack, the same 3 components need to be copied to the WA path
* Copy the Resource.cfg file found in your \Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\ to \Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 World Adventures\.
* Create a folder named Mods in \Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 World Adventures\, double-click the new Mods folder to navigate there and then create a folder named Packages
If your CC placed in the \Mods\Packages\ folder in base game do not work, simply cut+paste the contents into your \Mods\Packages\ folder in the WA path
* Copy the d3dx9_31.dll file found in your \Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin\ to \Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 World Adventures\Game\Bin\.
Just put the .package files in the Packages folder, in my sims 3 base game it's like this http://tinyurl.com/y9h2e4z
If you had done everything but it still didn't work, can you give me snapshots of what it look like in your game folder so I can take a look of it and have an idea?
ok i did everything word for word, i have the CC in my game but now my game has numbers on everything, it seems to all be in script, how do i keep the CC but put the game back to normal?
Try importing the CCs one by one. Maybe because there's so many of them, the game was so surprised and can't load them in your game perfectly. Example: put less than 10 CCs in the packages folder first and run your game. Then after a few mins add less than 10 CCs in the packages folder and run your game again. Repeat this until they're all imported.

I thought it was best that I inform you of this.
Thanks Maria
Hi again,
Thanks for the info, I always use the sims 3 launcher, so it can't be that maybe i need to upgrade my sims 3 to a higher version.
Thanks for doing this!

I'll try uploading some files from sharecash to ugotfile. I hope this time, it'll work.
Thank you so much. I already bookmarked this site for future downloads. I'm gonna collect all the sims 3 sets ^.^

Yeah I agree. I'm even uninstalling some of those unecessary stuffs one by one using the Sims 3 Launcher.
"Yeah I agree. I'm even uninstalling some of those unecessary stuffs one by one using the Sims 3 Launcher."
But if I convert the files to package I can't delete them using the Sims 3 Launcher
You can delete them from C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages. right click then delete, no need to use the Sims 3 Launcher.
