I don't know, but if you have it handy it would probably help.

If you want to wait a day, I've added a troubleshooting function to the TS4 version of this, and will add it to the TS SimRipper probably tomorrow. It lets you save a zip file including all the CC used by the sim, so it should save a lot of time and effort for both of us.

Edit: Sorry it's taking longer than I thought; the blended colors are really off and I'm trying to fix it (along with supporting more patterns and fixing the eyelashes) before uploading a new version.

I don't know if you got it but i already sent my sim in your direct message before I saw you sent this

Yes I saw, thanks, haven't gotten to looking at it yet but soon.

Hello! Its been a minute since I've been back here! But since there has been updates to a semi-stable(ish) version I thought I would come and tell you the first problem I'm getting ????. Sorry. But I'm not sure if I've missed something or not but when I have no option to find a path to my base game. When I click something it gives me the Unhandled Exception Error shown in this picture. This is the details or the error in case you need that as well. I will attempt to see If I can get to work anyway but I don't think it will lol. ((EDIT: Thought it was worth mentioning that I have TS3 installed through Steam and not Origin or Disk so that may be why it won't let me set a path without an error?))

There's no path entered in that screenshot. Are you saying the screen came up like that when you first started SimRipper? Did you try making the paths blank and let it auto-detect?

Yup as soon as I open the program it tells me no paths are found and to do it manually but I can’t without this error. And trying to make them blank does nothing so I have no idea if I’m missing some framework or something?

Looks like it's not finding the entries in your registry. I'll have to see what I can find out about Steam TS3 registry entries, and probably put a button allowing manual addition of paths in the next version. I'm working on patterns and a list of other fixes and improvements so it may be a few days.

Yeah its odd because I tested it on my sister’s computer and she has TS3 through Steam but it found her’s. I use her steam account to DL the sims so maybe that’s why. ah well I guess I will wait for a manual button thanks for the help

Whenever i select a sim from "SavedSims" to export


As for other errors:
Can't read BOND 0x0355E0A6-0x00000000-0xA80229A2A338B4AC, Package: D:\Electronic Arts\Die Sims 3\Mods\Packages\SlidersMERGED.package

I assume this program can't read merged package files?

It should be able to read merged packages unless there's something strange about them. It can't read protected packages.

I'm pretty sure I know what the BOND problem is, and will fix that. I'm working on a new version that has substantial changes and the ability to zip all the CC for the sim for easier troubleshooting, so IMO it's better for you to try again with that once it's uploaded.

Just popping up cause I'm nosey and curious if theirs any updates?

Not yet. Eyelashes are fixed but now the few patterns and colors I got working are all messed up again. Sorry but I need a break.

That sounds awesome, Thank you for responding! take your time!

Is this still alive?

It's semi-comatose but alive. I've been sidetracked by projects for TS4 because of the December patch mucking things up, and I've been sick for a couple of weeks and unable to spend much time on modding. I WILL come back to this.
