*I did some more reasearch and found that the objects did, in fact, show up as long as I created a sub-folder in my "Downloads" section (of the Sims 2 overall folder) and marked it "Furniture".
(*I'm on a Windows-enabled laptop, 64-bit system with 4096 MB RAM.
AED E-450 APU with Raedon HD graphics (2 CPUs) ~1.6GHz is what shows under "Processor". )
OK, so, this is a bit of a long one, but, the gist of the whole matter is:
My CC clothes are showing up, but, the furniture is no where to be found. I can go shopping for clothes, but, can't find the furniture in buy mode for anything (And though it was just furniture for nurseries, I left no stone un-turned in my search)
At first, nothing would show up, so, I followed the instructions from the game and turned it on and of (I have Double Deluxe), changing the folder and making sure "Display Custom Content Dialog at Startup" was on and then off.
And it worked fine until I decided I wanted furniture.
When I went back to do the furniture, I tried the same thing and nothing worked. Then, I went to look up a solution, saw someone had switched all of their furniture from "Downloads" to "Teleport", so, I tried that (turned the game on and off), and, it still didn't work. Went back to the tutorial and saw I needed to create a new folder (Documents > EA Games > TheSimsTM2 Double Deluxe > Downloads) so I did it, regardless of the fact that all of my other documents were showing up just fine in the other location.
And, still, no furniture.
I do have twojeff's ACR & Triplets and Quads hack. I also had the hacked telescope and gender preference hack, but, since I found out about the other two (and they do exactly what I want anyway), I've thus deleted them and they are no more. (And, it really doesn't matter, seeing as how the furniture wasn't showing up even before I got them)
I did have an incident when nothing would show up, but, it was because I downloaded a faulty piece of furniture. Well, not "faulty", just, not for my EP. And, when I had to find that, it was a bit difficult, because, nothing would show up in game, even when I deleted it.
For the record:
- I don't have inSIM/inTEEN
- I don't have anything involving Pescado's hacks (unless I do and just don't know it - to my knowledge, ACR and T & Q are all twojeff's)
- I have already tried to clean up all CC furniture - I thought maybe it was one of the first pieces I downloaded that were doing something. Didn't work. Now I've got a million back-ups roaming my computer from my failed efforts.
- I have all meshes - I'm looking right at them.
- Yes, I have checked, double checked and triple checked that everything was for my game and it's EPs.
