Packaging lots is very simple. In the neighbourhood screen, click on the home you want to package. Click on the package lot icon:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

In the next box that appears, you have the option to upload the file to TheSims2.com, or package to a file:<\/p>\n

\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Select the second option, the click the tick. Once your file has been packaged, another box will pop up to tell you where the file has been stored.<\/p>\n

Find it, open it up in the Clean Installer<\/a> software, and de-select the content you don’t want packaged with your upload:<\/p>\n

\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Click the ‘Save As…’ button, but rename the file or you will receive errors. The saved file is then ready to be ‘zipped’ and uploaded. \":)\"<\/p>\n

To compress your file, you will need WinZip<\/a> or WinRar<\/a> (my personal favourite as rar files are smaller than zip files) or something similar. such as 7-Zip<\/a> (free). Simply right-click on the file you want to compress, and select the ‘Add to…’ whatever option. In the example below I’ve shown 7-Zip and WinRar:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

The compressed file will created in the same place as your original file, in the above example my desktop. \":)\" This is the file you upload when submitting your file to our download section.<\/p>\n
