Delphy's Dashboard Problem

I download some CC and I want to test if it was safe, so I download Delphy's Dashboard. I downloaded it before and I had no problem with it but this time this error message pop up:



When I click ok, it happens again



And I originally had it in my sims 3 folder but the same message appeared
  • This is a Third Party program application and should not be placed in your Sims 3 game data folder under Documents. You need to extract all the files and the executable that goes with them together in a folder all it's own.

    My MTS Dashboard folder.

    If you have Custard, the same needs to be done in it's own folder. You cannot mix the files you extract together in one folder as the MadScience.Helpers.dll and MadScience.Wrappers.dll files for Custard are different than the files (with the same name) in Dashboard.

    My MTS Custard folder.

    I would advice you to set compatibility mode (have mine at Window 7) for both the (.exe) files, if you have them both, as well as set to Run as Administrator.

    Example: Dashboard Compatibility Mode set

    Then when you've set it up, run the executable file and set it to point to your Packages sub-folder and/or any sub-folders of Packages where you have (.package) files.

  • Hello! I'm experiencing some issues with the sims 3 Dashboard, can someone please help? When I click on "File" in the left corner-->Scan Folder... I can't find my package folder. I can go to This PC/Document but that's about it. I can't go deeper into the "foldertree" Why can't my Dashboard find any other folders? I would be so thankful if someone can help me!! <3
