Hello, sorry for the late reply! I have all the expansion & stuff packs installed. No deluxe or collectors versions.
edit: I forgot to mention: I also posted this question on Reddit & received this reply: "Yeah, you probably need to uninstall and reinstall in that case - or if you can figure out which file is the problem you can replace it from the disc (when this happens it's often a case of a file getting modified randomly - check your Res/StuffPack/Objects folder to see if it's the SPObjects package, as well as the Res/3D folder to see if anything in there was recently modified, those are the likely culprits)."
I checked the files and nothing seems to be modified recently.
I tried to uninstall it, but it won't uninstall. It asked "Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?". I click yes to proceed with uninstalling it, but that's as far as I can get, unless I restart my PC. When I restart it, it either says something along the lines of "This program may not have (un)installed correctly." or "Is this program working correctly?" (Not the exact words - I don't remember them at the moment.). It gives me two options: use the trouble shooter (& launch with compatibility settings) or close.
I've also tried uninstalling using eauninstall.exe, but I get the same responses. I haven't tried uninstalling any other packs.
edit 2: Bon Voyage objects are also missing from the game. I'll test all the stuff packs in a little while. I don't know if this'll help, but the cc I have installed is Clean UI by greatcheesecakepersona (+ some of the recommended cc), Empty Hood Templates (both for normal hoods & stealth hoods) by JawUSA, dreadpirates shader fixes, Cinema Secrets by veronavillequiltingbee & CEP & Scriptorium by Numenor. I launch by game using Sims2RPC by Lazy Duchess.
edit 3: All the affected packs are: Bon Voyage, Celebration Stuff & H&M Fashion Stuff.

@DragonPeaksAs far as I'm aware, those should not cause any issues. You could try Revo Uninstaller to uninstall the packs, then reinstall them.
Although, at this point, a thorough reinstall of the whole game might be the best idea; just make sure to back up your user data in Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\ as well as any mods you wish to keep.
The game, if you install from disk, might not always install correctly as it has many patches, and some of them flat out crash without 3rd party software. If you choose to reinstall everything, let me know all the packs you have and whether any of them are part of Collection/Deluxe bundles.Out of curiosity, since my H&M installation used to be broken several years ago, did you ever use Numenor's AnyGameStarter?

I thought about uninstalling & reinstalling all of them, but I'm hoping there's a faster solution.
I'll try Revo Uninstaller & reinstall them to see if the objects show in game, but it'll be a couple of days. I downloaded the patches from SimsVIP; I've never had a problem with my game crashing. I never used AnyGameStarter, just Sims2RPC.
- mate543 years agoHero+@DragonPeaks Let me know what happens when you reinstall just the affected packs.
