It looks really wonderful! But with such a large world and such a large amount of custom content, I'm wondering how long it takes to load?

You finished it! Congratulations!

@Corylea it loads quickly for me and my laptop is what I'd call midrange. I did set up a clean install folder to run this world in so that I didn't have to worry about my tons of CC clogging things up, and I'm not seeing any issues.

Looks magnificent, but I'll have to wait until the weekend to download it so I have time to follow up on all the CC.

This is beautiful, but I'm very confused. What EPs are necessary to run this? (I have a good many, but not all of them.)

Sadly right clicking says this file is broken and the 2nd files says you have to open the first file but that doesn't work. So now what?

@Jake Lucas & @lisamarie62 When multi part files are uploaded to MTS, they're given an upload ID for each part- the ones for these files are 1801356 and 1801357, but for whatever program you're using to unzip the files properly, the file names have to be exactly the same with the exception of the 'part1' and 'part2' portions.

What you get by downloading:
MTS_darkflwrs_1801356_NewOrleans.part1
MTS_darkflwrs_1801357_NewOrleans.part1
(note that one file ID ends in 6 and the other in 7)

What I changed the filenames to:
NewOrleans.part1
NewOrleans.part2
Now that the filename is exactly the same except for the segment which tells you which part the file is, it will unzip just fine.

Looks lovely! Glad that you got it finished and uploaded! You may want to consider uploading it on SimsFileShare and then putting a link to it in SimsFileShare in your overview. That way, you should be able to direct people to a single file to download - if they are having trouble with the 2 part download. It worked well for me for a multi-part world/neighborhood upload. Great job!

*** I also got the same frustrating error when trying to unzip these two files. I followed the advice of renaming them and Voila, They unzipped without error. Now I am eager to load this in my game as it looks way amazing.

Hey, sorry about that. I'm not really sure why it's doing that. I never set a password for anything. Maybe try downloading the packages again.

Thanks to all the posts! Took a very long time to make this world, and I'm super excited that so many people have downloaded it! Please keep posting any issues you have and I will do my best to help. I'm gonna keep tabs on any issues with the world and re-release if I need to. I'm not to savvy on these download issues...I will be uploading to another site as well that will be just one upload file as suggested. Thanks again guys!

I haven't seen any issues in this regard. You should be fine. Just keep your stuff organized in case you do have an issue.

This info is in the main post for the world, but for ease, here it is again:

EPs Required: All EPs (World Adventures, Ambitions, Late Night, Generations, Pets, Showtime, Supernatural, Seasons, University Life, Island Paradise, Into The Future)
SPs Required: Town Life Stuff, Outdoor Living Stuff, Master Suite Stuff, High-End Loft Stuff, & Fast Lane Stuff.

What EPs are you missing?

I was also getting error msg when extracting, then found your post and followed instructions. Part 1 extracted with no errors , but part 2 still is showing them . Do you have any other ideas?

I extracted using WinRAR and all you have to do is download to both places and browse for it in the open section when asking for part 2... Awesome world!!!!!! Nice textures. I wish you could've added the Smoothie King Center and designed it to be a concert venue!
