Anyone else having problems with the adult Dr. Pepper jerseys? As in, the 8 is not displaying as white, and is always the same color as the base (default red)? I keep trying to get it to work through various methods and failing. I don't really want to merge and upload until I can fix this.

[Andistyr]

I'm not having any problems - I just checked in CAS - I have no idea why the 8 isn't displaying as white in your game.

By "icon", do you mean "thumbnail"?

If so, sometimes decrapifying will keep the thumbnail from displaying in the launcher.  If Barnacle Bay shows up on your main menu as an available neighborhood to play, it's installed correctly, regardless of what the launcher might be doing.

I do. But my problem is that I can't get it to install without the thumbnail.. for whatever reason. I guess you don't need me to tell you the launcher is gay, but it is.



I have a feeling this one is going to give me a really hard time. Any suggestions?

FOR ANYONE WITH THIS PROBLEM.

Try Compressing it, Decraping it, then Installing

if that doesn't work re-download it as it may be corrupted and/or homosexual. Then Steps mentioned above

if that doesn't work, buy it.

[OmegaStarr]

And why must it be homosexual? Don't blam us, blame the stupid.

I am curious if there is a tool or a mod to remove duplicate content from packages that have been installed from de crapified packages?  I probably have overlooked it............. but been looking and haven't seen anything.

Nope. Once they've been combined into .package, you can't remove individual files. That's why you're supposed to keep a backup of all the files you merge so if you want to remove something, you remove it from the backup and remerge the remaining files.

Has anyone got the "Lovely Evening Gown" and/or "Not Just a Ponytail" from the Dr. Pepper Promos? http://www.drpepper.com/promotions/ea/prizes/sims3/
Thank you

sigh... i wished they were available in Australia

[TaterTots]

Does anyone have the "Lagomorph in Neon" download that comes straight from the Dr. Pepper promotion? The version I have was the one that was posted on the Sims 3 site for free for a short time and the texture that shows up for the item is incorrect. The texture looks like it is from a Christmas stocking. I have downloaded the version posted here and it is the same one. I'm just wondering if anyone has gotten it from the Dr. Pepper site.

[Moryrie]

The one on the Dr. Pepper site has the same faulty texture.

[kece]

Well that answers that question not that it really bothers me but I wasn't sure if it would affect the game or not having the same files in the game.  I have downloaded content from here, one file from one another file from another, but they both have one file the same this is why I was wondering if there was a way to remove multiple files that are the same.  Thank you for answering my question.

Which set is Omegastarr referring to by "the third set"? http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,15100.msg556108.html#msg556108

Which set is Omegastarr referring to by "the third set"?

They appear to be the Dr. Pepper items from 3 months ago.  Unfortunately all the files have been renamed.  MovieLoversChair.Sims3Pack was originally chairDiningTheaterDrPepper.Sims3Pack, etc.

Yeppers, they're the Dr.Pepper items. I've renamed them to what they actually are, why EA doesn't do that is beyond me.

Anyone have working mirrors for download packs 1, 3, & 4?

All of the mirrors in the download thread are dead.

Late Night is released in America today, isn´t it? I searched the whole day for a torrent, but there is only fake stuff available.

It will be out eventually, you just have to be patient. It's still early.

Did anyone get the pre-order bonus? I'm not sure if it was GameStop exclusive or not, but it was two hairstyles and two community lots.

[OmegaStarr]

it was gamestop, walmart and EA. From what I've heard/read the link doesn't work yet?

[Rockermonkey]

It's because they wrote the link wrong on the receipt, I believe.

There you go, I don't have a code though.

I'm having some pretty severe connectivity issues, so I'm not going to be able to upload an updated package file until after Friday unless things magically change. But I may wait until the store update anyway.

[Cynfire]

Could someone update Updates:1,2,3,4,5 and 8 along with the Neighborhood: Riverview posted at the top and in Update 13?

On each host site I get an error along the lines of:

This file has been deleted.

Reason: This file is forbidden to be shared.

I was able to download Update 4 from The Bay, everything else listed seems to be dead.

[knightguy]
