Right.. err, I'll pass that along to the person who first suggested they were collections of the files.. or something like that.

seems that you don't have the right mirror.

PS: Your work is REALLY awesome!!!!!

one suggestion: bundle them up, create an installer using one of the MANY software packs to do so out there and make it the neww expansion pack... Just kidding...
but I hope you will shoot anyone down who wants a .zip version ^^. I fear downloading because of that amount of files, and what would happen if one wants you to re-upload anything. I think Delphy will even give you the gun for shooting those down, he would have no space on his servers anymore.

Phat_man55 no they do not. I keep getting the files as &quote in the downloads folder even though they are saving as .rar when I click to get them.
I tried checking the cant view thumbnails box but that made all files into &quote. I cleared IE cache and reloaded. I have refreshed browser several times and have rebooted. Maybe it's that I am blonde..LOL

Yeah, you know, because anyone who wants a .zip version isn't "uber", or something like that.

Anyway, as sick as I am of .rar, I'd take a .rar collection just to get all of this without having to click that many times. Between messing with four cars and years of excessive game playing, my hands and wrists are getting beat up pretty badly. Have a permanent lump on one wrist.

But the Armoire with three mirrors (called a High Dresser in my game), shown in the first screen shot of Post 3, flashes pink in my game. It is just one of the mirrors, but it is also pink in the thumbnail of Buy Mode.

I have only played with the bedroom items so far, so do not know of any other quirks.


same with me, except mine flashes blue

Do you have the latest CEP installed? Did you make sure you downloaded ALL the files?

Read my post above. Put the _collections files in the COLLECTIONS folder, not Downloads.

Those collections files populate those folders so you can find all the items faster (without searching throughout the Buy Mode catalog). Not having them should not make your items blue.

I recommend you put these files in their own separate folder within your Downloads folder and call it "Grand Trianon" or something you can easily recognize.

COUNT all the files to make sure you have them all. Then make sure you have the latest CEP files installed.

Also, I suggest that everyone just hold your horses w/ repeating the same issues until someone from The Dream Team comes back to check out the comments on this thread.

@strategery: I recommend "Total comander (available at http://www.ghisler.com/), you can unpack most archieves with it by marking all of them and pressing alt+f9. in conjunction with winrar, you can then pack all this again. the trial is free forever, but you need to buy it in order to get rid of the annoying startup screen. anyway it is a helpful utility.
