Hi again. Sorry, but I've got another problem. The RoboFileMaid is working now, but is it supposed to be taking so long to actually do anything? I dragged some files onto it, and waited for a while but nothing happened to tell me that it had finished, and when I closed the FileMaid, the files I had dragged into it weren't in the game. Am I doing something wrong? Or is it supposed to take this long?

It came up as a virus because of the AdWare in it. Why the adware? Is that really neccesary?

not being blonde but what does this program do??? have been away from MTS2 since I downloaded 10000 files for up to uni and then when Nightlife came out they were null and void, seen this question asked a few times but not answered.. thanks :-)

It automatically install your custom content for you. YOu don't need to have WinZIP or winrar. There are other features to it and how to use it is included in the read me file. I find it useful for some things, but not for others. If you need more help, pm me because I do not check back at this thread very often.

Just THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! You did a great, a absolutely awesome job in creating the File Maid. I love downloading new content for my sims so much (since the game don't come up with real good clothes etc. okay, my opinion..) and I was always annoyed from installing all the files and with the Maid its that easy.
I downloaded her a month or what ago and I'm so happy with her! Your work is honored and loved!!

well, I'm having the same troubles as everyone else and I followed your link to the "correct" download.... except its a duff link. Nothing there. My computer promptly had a temper tantrum, told me the page didn't exist and crashed.

typical.

I'll just stick to the original file maid until your husband codes one for an older version of the .net framework

thanks anyway, looked like a nice program.

Wooow! I love this sooo much! If I have any problems I will come to you...You and your hubby did a great job at this and I absolutely love it! Thankyou once again xxx

Thie version works amazingly! Thank you soooooo much! I was having a lot of problems with the previous version. Now I don't have to download and install each file by hand.

Well i downloaded it, and i have the correct .NET thing.
When i drag a file onto the lawn next to the robot, " Enqueued 1 items..." appears and doesnt go away, what is this? and is it normal?

Just wanted to let you know, it's a little glitchy with Vista when it comes to uninstalling pack files.

Hi there, im downloading this now.. ill be using this on my new laptop that has vista, ill report any issues with it incase you guys want to do future updates

thanks so much, was dreading having to install this stuff manualy do to lack of sim programs for vista

Hi, just to let you know that i downloaded this yesterday after finding my trusty Sim File Maid 2 didnt work on my new Vista machine. I downloaded the net framework too but it turns out Vista (not on this 'internet' machine) already has net framework installed - i dont know if that's just mine or all Vista machines as my dad bought this one for us as he knows my old machine was getting too small to run the sims 2. (Yea! for my slightly early 40th B'day pressy!)

anyway i installed your Robo File Maid and she popped up perfectly, i was able to set the files i wanted my downloads to go to and the zips to go to - brilliant feature btw.

then i tried to use her and nothing happened, she wouldnt acknowledge any file i tried to place on her 'lawn'. I gave up in the end and opened my game. The next day i thought i'd try again, i opened up Robo file maid, she popped up perfectly again, i dragged my file over to her lawn and hey presto! it worked - 28 files all in the right folder with one click - hurrah.

I love the feature that shows the exact name of each file she loads as im one of those folks who keeps an exact record of every file i put into my sims so i can find corrupt ones without too much trouble.

I dont know why she didnt work first time but she works brilliantly now and i couldnt be happier, thanks so much for sharing this extrememly useful tool.

btw my system is as follows: Vista Business (6.0, Build 6000)
Dell Dimension E521, 222GB HD, AMD Athlon processor, 64X2 Dual Core Processor, 4400+ (2CPUs) ~2.3Ghz, 958RAM, Direct X 10 with NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE graphics card. Hope this helps anyone with Vista who wants to run Robo File Maid

Hi there,

I hope this hasn't been asked before but havin gone through the thread quickly I can't see it anywhere.

I downloaded this because Sim File Maid won't work on my new computer which has Vista. It installed however when I try and run it it says 'a problem caused the program to stop workin correctly'. It then won't run as Windows keeps closing it down. Any ideas? What am I doing wrong?

I'm really keen to put my (many) downloads into my game!

Thanks

Thank you. It works like a dream for me. Like others have mentioned, I was also having problems with Sims File Maid 2 recently.

i downloaded and installed this, but when i try to run it i get an error that says "the application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). click on ok to terminate the application." any suggestions?

having this problem to for a time... win xp here.

I'm sorry but I can't seem to drag any files onto the lawn D:
What is happening here?

I have Vista on my computor and am also having trouble with this as well as my trusty Sims File Maid 2. Neither of these programs allow me to drag the files onto their lawns. Any ideas as to what my problem is?

I found that Sims File Maid 2 doesn't work on my Vista machine, so downloaded RoboFileMaid3000. This didn't work either, I couldn't drag and drop at all. I read Willowsmum's comment above and ran The Sims 2 and then exited. After this RoboFileMaid appeared to work fine, and all the items appeared in game.

You rock! I have wanted this program since I discovered that Sims file Maid 2 does not work with Vista. Thank you for your work on this, and many successes to come!

I got Vista a while ago and sim file maid 2 didn't work on it. I tried alot of different things for it to work but nothing did.
When I saw this, i downloaded it right away.
I had no problems downloading it but when I tried it, it wouldn't let me drop the files.
Then, i came here and read the posts. After reading willowsmum's post I ran the sims 2 then exited.
I came back to try and it didn't work, I still had the same problem.
Does someone know why it won't work?

I have the exact same problem and I can't seem to find the answer anywhere.
I have no idea what to do as I have all the requirements to use the program.
Can anyone tell me why it won't process the custom content that I want to put on my game?
Thanks

Which folder should I download it into? And where can I find it when I have downloaded it? Thanks.
