How to export WA world to replace the original one?
Hi, I have imported a WA destination world into CAW and edited it, mostly routing. Now I want to export that and install to my game as a replacement to the original WA world. What confuses me is that the original worlds are in .world format in the game installation folder itself (without the layers and lots folders that I have in CAW). If I were to export the world in CAW, I would get a Sims3Pack. If I were to copy the .world file from the CAW user folder directly, I would leave behind the Lots and Layers folders.
So how do I get the .world file with the Layers and Lots folders into one .world file that could replace the orginal WA world, assuming that the folders are needed for the world to work?
Would appreciate a lot if someone knew how to manage that situation.

Extract the world file from the Sims3Pack and use that; a packed world contains all resources in one package file (not seperated into folders as CAW uses).
Be sure to keep a backup of the original world that you replace.

Thanks for the quick reply!
Okay, let's see if I got this right. I install the Sims3Pack as usual through the Launcher, back up the world file from the InstalledWorlds folder, uninstall the world through Launcher and place it in the GameData > Shared > NonPackaged > Worlds?

On this case as you don't want to install the Sims3Pack- that would put an entry into your ebc/dbc files that you don't want- so use a program such as Delphy's Sims3Pack multi extracter to get the world file without installing.

Then put it into [install location]\The Sims 3 World Adventures\GameData\Shared\NonPackaged\Worlds.
