Lots missing names and descriptions
Hello, my my lots from the exchange, do not have the same titles and descriptions as they did when I downloaded them. I recently made a new sims 3 folder, and deleted my cach using this method: https...

Spycoo16 Well, this has been interesting. I downloaded your build (using Add to Game) and installed it, and went to place it in an essentially new save in Sunset Valley... and got an almost instant crash to desktop. So I tried again with a different, larger lot, and it was fine until I told the game to push it to the front of the lot, when I got another CTD. This doesn't mean your lot is broken—I was testing with the 64-bit Mac version of the game.
What I was intending to test was whether the lot description would be present once I'd placed the build, and it was not (on the third try, with no attempt to move or recenter the build). So I tried again using the Save File button, and I got the same results.
I'm not sure why the description disappeared. Is this true for every lot or just some? If you move the Library files from your old Sims 3 folder into a new folder (not the one you're testing with now), do the descriptions show up? What about if you grab the contents of Downloads from the old folder? And for that matter, do the Library files from your old folder have exactly the same names and sizes as what you get when you install your content fresh? If you have too many files to test, don't bother, but if you only have a few, it would be interesting to see.
Finally, try opening a fresh download with CUSTARD to see whether the lot description appears at all. And test some of your older downloaded Sims3Packs as well.
Hello,
Before I transfer the files, remember how the lot I downloaded from the exchange may have been making my game glitch? If I transfer all of my downloads will that file be in there as well?
My old library file has 70 files in it, and my new one has 69 (because I deleted the lot I thought was corrupted).
My downloads for my current folder has the name in it:It even shows the day that I downloaded it from last year. All of the homes I downloaded from last yr, my own page now named "Lot Name" but the things I downloaded from OTHER people on the exchange, and the lots I purchased are named normal and described, they were all transferred the same way. I opened my downloads folder, then I double clicked each one, checked that it was in my launcher, and thought it was fine. In the launcher its listed with the name.
its also listed as such in my launcher. Just not in game.I could just redownload all of them but I guess I was curious why to prevent it from happening again.
