Hi everyone,

I hope you can help me out with this issue. I have searched all over and found a lot of people with the same issue, but no solution.

 

I am trying to load a list of all base game objects in Object Workshop, but so far I only get two decorative rocks.

 

Here is a screenshot:

 

 As you can see, there are a lot of (Missing) paths.

 

I am running Win Vista,  SimPE 0.72.1.33855 alpha and CEP.

 

Thanks for any help :)

Okay, you might need a close up of the paths:

Those paths that have (missing) in front of them mean that it's not finding them. Two of them are CEP related. Have you double checked to make sure all the componants of the CEP are still where it's looking for them?

 

(I have pieces of the CEP go missing, too.  I usually just re-install the CEP. I have no idea why it goes missing, though. I'm assuming it's the anti-virus getting overzealous. Or it doesn't like being set up on more than one user acccount on the same computer.)

This is dangerous advice: I'm doing it from memory and my memory is flaky.

 

Try the "reset" link to clear those "{missing}" entries.  If that doesn't work, go into "System Folders" and set your paths correctly for the EPs, then try it again.

 

Oh, and please run the latest version - 0.73.44.

Hi everyone,

 

Thanks for responding. I tried setting the paths correctly, but had trouble fnding the files it was tryint to point at. I am now uninstalling Sims 2 entirely and everything to do with it - and installing Sims 3 and all the tools for that.

 

Why was I still stuck in Sims 2 anyway?

 

 

I'll post again if I have trouble doing this!

Thanks :)

Well, if you couldn't find the files, that's a good clue as to why SimPE couldn't find them either. Laughing

 

 

Enjoy Sims 3!
