Shops on Resindential Lots

Thanks Igazor, I think that might be what I need.

C-Dark, I work from home, sell from my converted garage. So, it's me trying to re-create that.

Shops on Resindential Lots

I know it can be done. I know you don't get customers. But my problem is that I can't find the register etc among the residential electronics. Am I going mad or totally barking up the wrong tree?

Videos taken during game.

I can find them easily enough, but I can't watch them. I get an error message when I try to open them. I want to share them, but I can't even see them myself! I've asked this everywhere else, you are my only hope. Experts here seem to much brighter than anywhere else.

Installer issues

I am still learning, really I don't fully understand the inner workings of the game, but I'll tell you what I found. After a LONG conversation with Origin yesterday and several attempts at fixing the situation including removing the Origin file in Program Data, we finally hit on a fix. I disabled UA...

Installer issues

I'm currently in conversation with Origin to try to get to the bottom of this. We were disconnected yesterday, and then I had to go out. I'm going to get back to them this morning. I looked at the library files, despite letting the game run a little this morning then hitting save no more new library...

OK, that makes sense actually. So what files would I need to save to keep the Sim I've made safe for after I fix it somehow?

Yes, it's 1.69. Everything is via Origin. I did try a patch the other week but it made things worse instead of better, and then your new game folder fix worked......

Let me see if I can find this Origin Repair Game.

Installer issues

I did try to put the library files into my new game folder, but it didn't work. I was therefore quite willing to just have them go into CAS and have to re-do all their skills etc, but it's a moot point now as I've trashed any other files I should have saved by the sound of it. AND now the original p...

Installer issues

Yes, thanks. So, here's the upshot of all that. Having got the hang of moving things around, I tried several tests. Your method fixed the download/installation issue. I shall remember what I've learned for any other issues I have. But I was not able to put my Saved Sims into the new user game folder...

Right, I'll give this a shot later, and thank you. If I don't report back here all went as planned. But I do have other issues, so I'll put them in a separate thread as they are not related to this at all.
