I have built a house that was inspired by another creator here on MTS. I know that I need to check it before I upload it, take good screenshots, etc. Here is my problem(s):
1. This is my first time uploading to this site to the best of my recollection.
2. I found the Custard link, but not sure if it is still working since the last update was 2010.
3. If it is working, how do I use it to it's maximum potential?
4. All of the custom content I have in the lot (patterns, walls, windows, etc.) came from MTS. Are there any creators that do not allow their stuff to be uploaded with a lot? If so, is there a list somewhere so I can remove their custom content from the lot prior to uploading?
5. I am a newbie at uploading, so any help would be appreciated. I have read the tiptorial, so will keep those points in mind while I prepare the lot for upload. However, any tips or help not listed there or anything that has changed since the tiptorial was last updated would be greatly appreciated.

Last but not least, thank you to all the creators on this site for providing such wonderful inspiration and content!

Ok so I have downloaded this succesfully, but I am having a problem as nothing had came up corrupted, it had all came up white, am I right or wrong? Does it need to be red to say its corrupted? I cannot play my sims 3 without it crashing in 5 minutes, this is so frustrating now. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING!!!! I'm losing the plot lol plus i've only purchased this and it's a real bummer that this is happening! Please help, someone?

I'm also on a windows 7 computer and custard won't work . On my previos computer (vista) I used custard all the time. I tried all kinds of compatibility modes offered , but it just keeps telling me "Sims 3 pack Clean Installer has stopped working".

I have microsoft .NET framework 4 installed. I hate to mess around with that, I don't know if installing .NET framework 2 would fix it, or if it's something I should do? Don't want to mess up anything else in my computer . I do miss being able to see inside the sims 3 packs though.

EDIT: Problem solved with help from someone at sims 3 forum!

Apparently in Vista it could be run straight from winzip, WinRAR or whatever you are using BUT in windows 7 it HAS to be extracted to it's own folder. From there setting compatibility mode to the "properties" of the executable custard file keeps the error message from popping up.

Not necessarily.

Check out these links for explanations on what to look for when using custard - this outlines some of the types of bad cc

Hope these help!

I have got my Dad to download Custard for me but when I click it it tell me to select a program to run it on, i don't know what to do at that point? I am running windows 7 (I think) what do I do/download

Have you extracted the files yet or is it still a .rar folder?
If it is still a .rar folder then you need to extract it before you can use it. WinZIP and WinRAR are both programs than can do this.
When the folder has been extracted there will be three files inside and you need to double click on Sims3PackCleaner.exe to run the program.

Everything I scan says corrupted not a DPDF or whatever even from my own stuff where I don't download off the exchange and I don't have CC only store.

Question:

How come when I make a shortcut to the tool, when ever I launch it, it crashes? Right now I have to keep downloading it; I figured a short cut to the desktop would be easy, but when I launch custard it crashes and says its stopped responding.

Why not just put the folder on the Desktop instead of using a shortcut if shortcuts crash the program?

I need help, I scanned a sim and no cc showed up on Custard, but I know for a fact everything on the sim is cc.

THAT SIM^

Didn't think of that LOL

Are you sure it's sims3Pack cc ? There isn't any, as you said.

Hey Delphy
I have 2 questions.
1.How do I raise the dead using this?
2.Can I clean up sim pack files?

Thank youu

I am having trouble with custard when I go to clean the pack it becomes unusable after saving if I go try to use the pack it crashes my launcher. Any help would be nice.
