22nd Feb 2012, 11:21 PM	Website Confusion #1
Hyleath5560 Original Poster Field Researcher Join Date: Aug 2007 Posts: 343	When I go to this site at work there are different downloads then when I go to this site at home. There is a new neighborhood I wanted to download I forget the name of it. It looks cool. Then I get home and it isn't on the website. So I checked today at work and it was there. Then come home same thing. Any help would be appreciated?

That means they'll only show downloads which are compatible with the EPs on your profile - and if you haven't updated your profile...

Thank you for this. It's been driving me crazy that I could access stuff on Sims3Updates that wasn't present when I looked here.

I like to look at new buildings and worlds even if they're not fully compatible with the episodes I've got and I hadn't noticed that option which must have taken effect some time after I started visiting regularly.

	Tumblr - Yes, I have a blog. :) <Corsix> Why 'mod the sims 2' when you can mod 'mod the sims 2'? Story books are full of fairy tales, of Kings and Queens, and the bluest skies.
