Hello there,

If one particular item really comes in several separate .RAR files (I haven't had much time to check the new download site), then you firstly need to download ALL .RAR parts. You could then, for practical reasons, create a new folder and put all the .RAR parts into that folder.

The thing now is this: you just need to open one .RAR file, then you drag and drop the content of the .RAR outside. The other .RARs will extract themselves automatically if you just extract ONE of them. Wink

 1. Download all the .RAR parts of the set.

 2. Make sure they are all in the same folder/location. (Example: Desktop)

 3. Extract only ONE of the .RAR files.

 4. Move the extracted files to ( for example ) The Sims 3/Downloads.




  It's as simple as that.




Happy simming, The Sims Plumbob 1!

OK, maybe I misunderstood your problem, but what do you mean then with the ".RAR parts" ? I suppose you know that you need a program like WinRAR to open that file ?

If I did understood you correctly, then open one .RAR file, right-click on an item and choose "select all". This will "mark" all the contents of the .RAR file. Now click on the "Extract to.." button at the top in the WinRAR program. Then select any location. Now, if there are other ".RAR parts" (again, keep in mind that all these parts "belong together"; and if you just pull out the contents of one .RAR, it doesn't matter which, then all others will extract themselves too).

So at the end, you should have that one file, the "MedWedSet.sims3pack".

Yeah you got me right but I'm a bit dumb when it comes to understanding explained things sometimes.
I don't get the part of extracting the other RAR files?

OK, then. How about this:

Just download ALL .RARs to one place. Then choose any (it does NOT matter which one you choose) .RAR and extract it - and see what happens.  Wink

Ok got that !!
Finally my brain worked.
Thanks a lot.  Smile

//EDIT

Ok so I extracted and then joined the .001 + other 00 files and it makes a sims3pack.
I install it and it fails.
Also another join made a file with no extension so I put sims3pack on it and it didn't work.

Do you get an error message ? If yes, what kind of error message ?

Hello,

Is the CC you downloaded in the form of .package? If yes (sorry if I misunderstand or overlook your description of the problem), you should download and move the entire Mods folder to C:\Users\(your computer name)\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3. The folder can be downloaded  here. Put the package file you downloaded to the packages folder inside this Mods folder.

If the CC downloaded is in the form of .sims3pack, then I suggest you redownload and rejoin the parts using HJSplit. When asked for the file in HJSplit, put the parts in the same destination folder and choose the file named .rar.001 ONLY and click ok. Then a sims3pack will be created in the same folder.
