How To Install Store Items
My old step-by-step guide on how to install your store items without duplicate files with all the links has disappeared! It was here: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/807788/reinstall-store...

Try copying in the pertinent folder info for dccache, installed worlds, and library to see if your game will recognize them first, ZG. You might get lucky. I am pretty sure the download files won't work, but maybe the cache files will. It seems I was already to reinstall on my new system where I had to replace a couple discs (stuck in the CD player and borrowed, by not returned, by a friend). But, I got lucky, I think and I got some stuff to copy over. The saves wouldn't play, but the .nhd file from the saves would. So, I only had to open up and save in a world. Then, I'd quit and copy in the old .nhd file.
Steam version might not recognize the other formats, but it might.
Okay, tried this. My game save files copied over just fine from disc to Steam. But the store content backups won't work. So either I do without my store content on the laptop, which is doable. I don't play on it that much. Or I do a complete reinstall. If I do a complete reinstall I'll film it. Because the first one is so raw! And didn't show all the options available. I didn't know how to edit at the time. :)
@Teanias Nice to see you back! Hope the old video helps!
