thanks for keeping up with me... loads of help.

doogzman, sounds like you're missing the C++ runtime. See this post for the fix: http://sims3.the-prof.net/forums/in...opic,844.0.html .

ok will do. thanks srikandi. i will try it out.

for those of us who are having trouble because of the collections, if we temporarily removed our collections from the folder, would Magic work?

I have been waiting for something like this for so long!

I'm wondering though...how does this affect CC already used in the game? If we merge files does it break a saved game? Or will they be replaced with EA furniture? Or will it work the same after the CC has been merged?

INCREDIBLE!!!
Have no words!

How do I completely uninstall this? I had the Custom Launcher V2 Build 2661. I keep searching for the file to uninstall it via Revo, and my comp finds nothing. I deleted all folders and the "Collections" keep showing back up in My Documents\Electronic Arts folder. I am trying to do a clean install of my game before installing CC Magic.

thanks for this tool but I'm having a problem after i installed this i added some new mods but they aren't showing up in game. Help!!!

Exactly. Just go into the <documents>\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Collections\Users folder and move those files to a different location and CC Magic will run.

I expect to have an update sometime in the next 3 or 4 days that fixes this issue. Once that happens, you will be able to put those files back in place.



The game won't be able to see any difference in the CC between the old style and the merged packages that CC Magic uses. If it does see a difference, take a look at my response to modmon below. There is a bug that might be causing issues.



To completely remove the data from Custom Lancher V2 2661, you can remove the folder <documents>\Electronic Arts\Custom Launcher. CC Magic uses the folder <documents>\Electronic Arts\CC Magic. Each time you run either V2 or CC Magic, it will re-create the appropriate folder set. And CC Magic will upgrade the settings from V2 the first time you run it. The beta versions of Custom Launcher V2 didn't get installed, so just removing the folder you unzipped into is enough. CC Magic has an uninstall program that you can run.

Hope this answers the question you were asking.



There is an issue that was brought to my attention just in the past day or so... It seems that when new items are added to CC Magic, it doesn't mark the Default set as needing to be rebuilt.

To get new items to show up, the easiest way is to highlight the Default set, and click the enabled checkbox on one of the items twice. Once to disable, and then a second time to enable it. This marks the set as needing rebuilt. Hit the rebuild button (or play) and it should install the files into the game for you.

This issue will also be addressed in the update planned for later in the week.

This is amazing! But I got 2 problems... First when the CC Magic program is started, I cant close it again? And the second, I have read the hole manual several times, also the help-menu, but I cant figure out how I import the files? The Enable, disable and delete button are grayed out?

Thank you so much for putting your time and effort into creating this!
I am beyond excited to try this (: I have so many CC that I want to clean out but I had no way of knowing which files to delete and I've been meaning to merge my files for the longest time.

There are so many programs for Windows, and none for Mac :-(

Is there any program for us Mac users? I haven't been able to find any yet. Boo!

Unfortunately, to write software for a Mac, you have to own a Mac. And I can't afford one.

I wish there was a way to get this running for you.

Thanks so much for answering granthes. Unfortunately, now, even though I deleted the folder, every time I start the launcher or the game, the "Collections" folder and the "SavedOutfits" folder still shows up on my comp.

The collections folder will be created by the game every time you run it. And I've never noticed SavedOutfits before... But it looks like it is created by the game as well.

As long as these contain only the files created by the game, you should have no problem using CC Magic.

I love this program, Im still getting use to using it and find it great in orginizing all my cc stuff and getting rid of stuff I no longer want. Thanks for the hard work on this.

Okay thanks so much!

:-) Great program you've developed here!

I am having an issue with patterns causing the "materializing materials" but I can deal with it until the update (:

The big issue I'm having is that I can't get it to launch the game through 3booter.exe (I'm using that as my fps limiter). Is there another fps limiter someone can recommend?

A weird issue I had was...I loaded a saved game that was in an EA-created Appaloosa Plains house and it said "some objects could not be loaded and have been replaced" but I hadn't edited that house at all so there was no CC in it. What does that mean?

I guess CCMagic didnt work for me. I sorted everything, but my game still lags about the same

Edit: Never mind i read a couple of other posts on your website and its running suuuper faster now Thanks

In Sims 3 I am getting an error that only happens on the all screen of installed content. When I start the game I click on the slider, this error comes up then windows closes the game down. The installed content is not rotating on any of it so I am unable to delete anything other than what is on the screen now. The error is:

Microsoft Virtual C ++ runtime

runtime error

R6025

pure virtual function call.

I installed this mod and when it didn't work I uninstalled it now I have this issue.

Anyone got a fix? Any help appreciated.

Hey, How awesome is this Thanks Granthes.
So in my little play I discovered that, I now lost some windows lol somewhere.
It does not take, cas stuff, fences or Armis chimney recolours. Patterns, although other poeple have already mentioned that. and I don't know what else yet Soon to be explored.
Thanks for again. This tool is epic.

Thank you for this. It's excellent.

I would really like to use this program, I installed it using the installer,
but when I launch it it flashes whatever there is to see and then it says CC magic stopped working
