Thanks for the suggestion, Blue Soup. I checked the objects.package file, and it was not set to Read Only. I tried to set it to read-only, and that didn't work either. One thing I forgot to mention is that it attempts to patch objects.package twice. Once it goes through just fine, but by the end of the second process it gives me the error.

Hi, guys. I am having a problem with the new OFB patch (surprise, surprise). I've searched the official BBS as well as this forum and can't seem to find a solution that works. When I install the OFB patch, it stops at the TSData\Res\Objects part. The solution I found was to copy the objects.package from the OFB disk and replace the file on my hard drive. That did not work. I've also replaced the other files that people mentioned were causing problems (globalcatbin.bundle, for example). All to no avail. By the way, the FFS patch installed just fine.

I then proceeded to actually reinstall OFB, which also didn't work. Then, I reinstalled everything (what a pain in the rear that was), and STILL nothing. I did take out all hacks/custom content. In fact, I moved the Sims 2 folder from My Documents folder to another drive while I tried to patch. I am at a loss at this point. If anyone can help me, I'd appreciate it very much.
