i'm having some trouble with custom content in my game... outfits/makeup/genetics show up, but objects dont. I know that i have all of my content in the right folder (documents>ea games>the sims 2>downloads)
but when i first start my game it comes up with the box asking me if i want to allow the content and i always have to switch it to tell it to allow it...

under options i told it to not open the box at startup, but it continues to. for some reason these options always reset after quitting/restarting the game, (which seems to be the fix for this problem) whenever i restart the game, it always pops back up asking me to enable it... is there any way to permanently change the settings to make it allow it? because my settings never seem to save.

thanks!

It sounds like the game is having an issue writing to file- are you on an administrator account? What operating system are you using? Try deleting your Documents\ EA Games\ The Sims 2\ config folder so that the game generates a fresh one, then manually editing the userprops file:
