		<description>That doesn't work for me. My game won't load after I've moved all my downloaded files to the downloads folder. Any suggestions?&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>If you haven't ever downloaded anything from EA's sims 2 site or ever opened the Bodyshop program that comes with the game, then you won't see a downloads folder.  But that's okay, you can make one.

When you open the sims 2 folder and you see the other folders such as collections, cameras, etc.  Just right-click on an empty spot, then click on New/Folder and name the new folder Downloads.  It has to have an uppercase D at the beginning of it and it also has to have an &#34;s&#34; on the end of it.

Once you have it made, then you can put your downloads in there.

But when you download something from a non-EA sims 2 website, it will come in a zip or a rar folder, so you need to have a program such as winrar, 7zip, izarc, etc. that can open zip and rar folders and extract out the files that are inside.

Most of the time those files will now look like little pieces of paper and if you hold your cursor over them, they will have a file extension of .package.  Those are the files that need to go into the Downloads folder.

If you extract the zip or rar and you see another zip or rar folder, then you will also have to extract what's inside of that one too.  Or, sometimes there will be a type of folder that's called a Sims2Pack file.  This will either look like a little sim coming out of a box or it will look like a little house coming out of a box.  If you see one of those, you have to double-click on it and then click on Install, Ok, Ok and it will put the .package files into the game for you.

Good luck and Have Fun!

eta -- after you have cc in the right folder, when you first go back into the game you will have to go into the game options (...) and click on the icon that looks like a cog wheel and enable the cc.  Then exit so that change takes effect.  The next time you go back in, you should be able to see the cc.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>oh! i had that problem. what you do is go to Documents&#62;EA Games&#62;Sims 2 and then CREATE a folder labeled &#34;Downloads&#34; then just put all of your downloads in there =)
then it should work fine.

it's really easy ^.^&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;me =)</description>
