Looks nice, gotta try it some time! I'm afraid that the cow and chickens from store won't work and store fixes crash my game lol
The most likely reason your premium content won't work is a corruption in your ccmerged.package file in DCBackup folder.
There is a downloadable version of this file. It works for some people and not others.

They way to make a new ccmerged.package file is to
1. rename your existing Sims 3 folder in Documents (the folder that contains your DCBackup folder).
2. launch the game to generate a new Sims 3 folder
3. install ALL of your premium content. There is a lot of it. I'm pretty sure it came from the store. Any content that has extra actions associated with it. I think the first thing I got that was premium content was the wind chimes. This link might help identify it

Don't forget the content that came with worlds.
Once you've generated your new ccmerged file then you can rename the new Sims 3 folder and restore the name of the old Sims 3 folder and delete the ccmerged.package from DCBackup and replace it with the new version you just created. And if it works, and you haven't forgotten anything, then you can keep a backup of the file somewhere safe for future use if needed. It'd be a good idea to keep the Sims 3 folder you used to make the new ccmerged file until you have tested all of you premium content works just in case you forgot something and need to install it in the folder you used to make the new ccmerged file.
Happy Simming
