The Sims 3: Missing objects warning?

So I reinstalled all my games and all my store items, about 7 times this week, and my save files, no matter how many times I reinstall my content, It pops up missing objects warning, and I don't know what items are missing.

I have tried fresh Sims 3 folders and reinstalling the items and expansions, then moving my saves back in, no matter what I do, this message pops up.What else can i try?

I have 700 PLUS store items and it takes FOREVER to reinstall them.

  • Hi @graceymanors,

    Have you used mods or custom content in the past? This message could be because you were using a mod or custom content that is no longer installed in your game.

    Did this message appear when you reinstalled your game or made any other changes?

    I reinstalled everything, about 15 times now. I've been trying to fix this for 2 weeks, no matter how many times I reinstall my store items, the message does not go away.

    Its def store items that are missing, because when I load the game, my sim's outfit is set to base game clothing.

    These files are files I transferred over from another computer.But I reinstalled EVERYTHING I owned, and the message is still there, I have about 30 times now.

    Hi @graceymanors,

    Thanks for that information. A couple questions, if you don't mind 🙂

    1. Did you transfer from one computer to the other the whole The Sims 3 folder in your Documents \ Electronic Arts or just certain files/folders?
    2. Do you still have the game installed in the old computer, and access to it?
