The Sims 3 World and Venue Install Issue.[SOLVED]

by Guest Tue 14 Aug 2012, 23:26

I'm running the latest version of The Sims 3 with all expansion packs and patches installed (and without any cracks) For some weird reason, I can install all normal store content, except for Worlds (Lunar Lakes, Riverview, etc) and Venues (Gothique Library, Simoleon Casino, etc.) Whenever I try to install them from the launcher, they appear to install perfectly fine. But they won't appear in game, and when I restart the launcher, they show up as un-installed again. Any help for this would be appreciated.

Are you running any mods? If so try copying the mods folder to another location, delete it from the game directory (usually C:/Users/User_Name/My Documents/Electronic Arts/Sims 3), restart your computer and then install the world or venue sims3pack by double clicking on it (i.e. Riverview.Sims3Pack).

If that fails to install them properly, you can go back to the same folder and delete the following files:

scriptCache.package
compositorCache.package
CASPartCache.package
userPresets.package

These files will be regenerated when you launch the game again.

Now install the world/venue file(s) by double-clicking on them. This should fix the problem.
