I was trying to download an object (you know, those extras) and I did. The directions say that you need to double click the file and it will be automatically installed into the game. when i double click the file, this thing pops up and says "what would you like to use to open this file" or something like that. Do i need Winzip to put the object in my game or what? because when i play the game, the object is nowhere in the buy catalog. HELP!

well, actually, there is no "yes". there is a list of the programs i can use to open the file, and then ok or cancel. but no yes. just clarifying that.

I use the sims2pack clean installer to install the sims2 installable packs. You can get the sims2pack clean installer from http://www.modthesims2.com/index.php? , when you have this, you should have the option to open the sims2 installable pack with this program. I like using this program because if you download a house that contains a hack (that you might not want), you have the option of installing everything except that hack. Keeps unwanted things out of your game. If you have any hacks in your game and you accidentally put one in that conflicts with the one already in your game, it can cause the game to crash or not respond. Also, if you download extras for your game, a lot of times you end up with duplicates or with a lot of empty files in your sims2 downloads folder, you can find these with the sims2pack clean installer and it allows you to delete these files without having to try and hunt them all down. ModTheSims2 site also has a lot of free downloads for the sims2 (I like it better than the sims2 exchange).
