I just learned something new today!
DONT USE THE IN GAME DOWNLOAD DASHBOARD! lol
so i just re-installed the sims 3 from disks, tired of being tied to Origin, i kept my current sims 3 documents folder, but when i started my game all my store content was gone. i started going thru the 1 by 1 download process that took me what 5 hours? last time i did it and posted here in this thread. so by download 5 i probably was already at 10 minutes into the process, i decided screw this, there's got to be a better way and so i shutdown the game and went to the sims 3 website.
after poking around a bit i noticed my purchase history located here: https://store.thesims3.com/purchaseHistory.html
wow look at all the download buttons! and it even has a select all option with 1 single download button to push for each page. so i decide... let me try this!
well, here it is, 10 minutes later and all my 100s of items of store content are now already downloaded AND installed!
5 hours saved! yey!! :)
