Mods/DCCache: place .dbc file: done! But what about my .ebc file?
Hi Everyone
I followed the advice on this page: http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=382520 and got my Sims3Packs from here working. But I cannot see any content from the store ingame, even though it says and stays installed. This is apparently contained in a .ebc file. I have one in my Sims 3/DCCache folder. Can I put the .ebc into the new Mods/DCCache folder (as I did for .dbc in the help page linked to above)? If so, how can I modify my resource.cfg file to find and read it? Base game and WA, patched to 1.19/2.14, running on a Mac. As a side note after installing WA my documents/EA/Sims 3 folders remained the same - I Have no Sims 3 World Adventures in the My Documents folder tree. This doesn't appear to be a problem though. Thanks!! |
Try copying the *dbc line of the resource.cfg to a new line, and changing dbc to ebc.
|
Simply add another line? With or without the Priority 500 bit?
Update: I tried it both ways and neither worked. How exactly should I modify the resource.cfg file? Is there a tutorial/explanation anywhere of how it works and how to change it? Eg the Priority numbers. What do they mean? Please guys.. How do I modify the resource.cfg file to read .ebc files in Mods/DCCache? Once again...please? |
*.ebc are your store item files and they are somehow encrypted. I might not work that way.

A modified resource.cfg would look like this:
Priority 501 DirectoryFiles Files/... autoupdate Priority 500 PackedFile Packages/*.package PackedFile Packages/*/*.package PackedFile Packages/*/*/*.package PackedFile Packages/*/*/*/*.package PackedFile Packages/*/*/*/*/*.package Priority 499 PackedFile Test/*.package PackedFile Test/*/*.package PackedFile Test/*/*/*.package PackedFile Test/*/*/*/*.package PackedFile Test/*/*/*/*/*.package Priority -50 PackedFile Probation/*.package PackedFile Probation/*/*.package PackedFile Probation/*/*/*.package PackedFile Probation/*/*/*/*.package PackedFile Probation/*/*/*/*/*.package Priority 500 PackedFile DCCache/*.dbc PackedFile DCCache/*.ebc As cinrict says, it might not work, it's just a theory. |
I tried that, and...it didn't work. It also slowed my game down something chronic. Ah well, thanks for your help. Maybe one day I'll find a fix for store items! Until then I'll have to save my simpoints ;-)
