If you download off a site like Mod The Sims 2, this is what you have to do. # Make a folder for your downloads. It doesn't matter where as long as it isn't in your sims file. # Click on the download you want # I think that a screen will pop up that says "Do you want to Save or Open" # Choose Save # When the folder chooser thing pops up, browse until you find the folder you made for your downloads. # Know the name of the download file that you are saving. # Save # Go to that file # Click on the download that you just saved. # Right Click, click where it says extract or unzip. # (extract to that folder... for RAR files you will need a program like WinRAR) # Go to your documents go to Ea Games click on The Sims 2 click on Downloads # Create a folder with a name that has something to do with your download. # Go back to your folder with the download in it. # Highlight the files that were extracted to the folder. # Right click # move to... The folder that you made in your Sims 2 Download folder. (Hope I helped!) # Go to your documents. # Click EA Games # Click The Sims 2 # There should be a Downloads file in there with your downloads # Unzip any files you have downloaded and enjoy To Unzip - Right click, and then find where it says Extract All, follow instructions there. Don't put your downloads into the file in the Programs File (They will not work)
Some files that you download you can install into your Sims 2 game by double clicking on the file you downloaded. The Sims 2 package installer will pop up and automatically install the file into the game. This installer is included and installed onto your computer when you first installed the game.
Other files that you download, that are not .packagefiles, such as game hacks and mods, you must place in your Sims 2\Downloads folder, then you must go to your Game Options from within the game and choose Enable Custom Content and then restart the game. The Sims 2 Download folder is located in your user\My Documents\EA Games folder. If there is no Download folder under Sims 2, you can just create a new folder. Make sure you spell it right, or it won't find it.
To download hair, clothes, other sims... etc. go to sims2.com and then click on the exchange.
Happy Simming! <3 FSC
