Re: Can't see FAIRY WINGS!!!!!!!!

Yes, delete the helper and check if you have a mods folder in programs. If you still do, delete that as well.

You will also need to delete the resource.cfg in programs\electronicarts\thesims3 (only there, not the one in game\bin)

as well as the d3dx9_31.dll in game\bin (you also have that file in windows\system32. DO NOT DELETE that one.

If you don't have all of these, don't worry.

    I have No Mods, and have deleted everything that I was told to. I don't have the helper monkey either.  But I still can't see fairy wings or any special effects from the spells.  What do I do.

    Where do you have d3dx9_31.dll ? In Windows\system ? Don't delete that or your computer will have major issues.

    Do you have a mods folder in the new place ?

    Don't think it should be there. Don't have the CAP installed. Move the file to a different occasion (instead of deleting) and see if CAP still works. If it works and you have no other issues, you can delete the file otherwise move it back.

    Should not have anything to do with the wings not showing up though.

    Is the fairy otherwise a normal fairy or do you have other issues ?

    I recently got Supernatural from origin and at first I could see sims wings just fine, but when I created my own fairy in CAS, I couldn't use her powers and couldn't see her wings. I don't use mods. What can I do to fix it?
