I've made a new Downloads folder, but i don't get how you move the downloaded sims from the website, to the actual game so you can play with them. Plz help!! :() ...
Very easy question.
Well… you have to open your EA games file —> Sims 2 —> Downloads.
Then, pick the item you want to install/download/etc.
After you’ve picked it, click on the DOWNLOAD icon next to it.
It might take a short time to do this, maybe a long time, but its the only way.
You have to save the file. For example, I use firefox, And the only way to tell you this is if you HAVE firefox, use it. And if you don’t… its the best way. A window will pop out, tiny window, called “DOWNLOADS”. You will see the name of the file. Double click on it if nothing came out after. A file will come. If the file has a file inside of it, open “Extract”. Then, when its done doing that, copy it, and open the Downloads files I wrote about earlier. Paste it there, and your good to go!
1. You go to your preferred fan site which offers sim clothes.
2. You click on the link or picture to download the item/s.
3. When the file is downloaded into your computer, you will see that it has the file name .package.
4. Right-click on the file and cut & paste into your sims downloads folder.
5. This folder is usually in your My Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2/Downloads.
6. It is very important that if you do not have a downloads folder, you insert a new folder and name it “downloads”.
I hope i have been of good help and you will like your sims wearing cool new clothes. If you have more problems don’t hesitate to ask
1. First you need to create a folder in your EA Games-Sims 2 folder and name it ‘Downloads’. Then download an extraction program like WinRar. http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm You need this because most Sims 2 downloads are in compressed files to reduce size and make it faster to download. I suggest making a dummy folder on your desktop to put downloads in before moving them to the actual ‘Downloads’ folder. It can named whatever you like. Also download the Color Enabler Package. This allows you to use user created recolors of items that are already in the game. http://www.modthesims2.com/download.php?t=92541
2. After installing WinRar, choose something you want to download from a site you like. A popular site is http://modthesims2.com/ . Select an item and click ‘save’. Save it to the dummy folder on your Desktop. Make sure you download any meshes it requires. A mesh is a base model for new items. You don’t need it if it’s a recolor of a Maxis item. If it’s a .zip file, you don’t need to use WinRar if you don’t want to. Just double click on the item and it will unzip.
3. Open WinRar and find the items you downloaded. Right click on the item and select ‘extract files…’ and then find the EA Games- Sims 2-Downloads folder. After you’ve extracted the items to the ‘Downloads’ folder you can delete the original file from the dummy folder since you’ve extracted the items you need.
4. Start up you Sims 2 game and in Neighborhood view make sure you enable custom content.
* Some items come in SimPack form. When you first download them they will have a blue and white icon next to them. These files do not need to be extracted in Winrar. They can be placed directly into your EA Games-Sims 2- Downloads folder. Then just double click on them and a blue box will come up asking if you want to install the content. click ‘yes’ and it will install.
* I suggest making sub folders within the EA Games-Sims 2- Downloads folder with names like ‘clothing’, ‘hair’, etc. because you will probably end up with hundreds of downloads over time and things can get confusing if they aren’t organized.
* As you get better at downloading and extracting the files you can just place them directly in the EA Games-Sims 2- Downloads folder and right click on them. There is an option to extract the files directly into the folder, but I don’t recommend this to first timers.
Good luck and let me know if you have any problems.
