Thank you so much Rumbutter, you really are a hero... I hope I can find it now and get it working...
I've been writing and contacting Origin for weeks for help on this problem and they never helped me, not ever!
EA, this is the last Sim purchase (after I clean out my current credits) I'll spend on any Sims game in the future! What a rip off, I thought I was going to be able to download this venue in any setting I wished, and couldn't find it anywhere, when I asked for help I was told to wait and they would get back to me! ha! No one from EA or Origin ever explained this **bleep** what crappy way to treat your customers!
Thanks Rumbutter, you are a saint and I wish I'd read your report weeks ago, I'd download that sucker about a dozen time and couldn't find it anywhere, still doubt I'll find it on my system, but no matter. Just a waste of time... shouldn't have purchased it.
