Sims 1 no folders & AmigaAudioFile?


Question Posted Tuesday May 6 2008, 7:58 am

I re-stalled my Sims 1 games yesterday (Sims, livin it up, house party, vacation, pets and superstar). I didn't have any trouble installing them or playing them.
I used to have loads of downloads for sims 1 and never had any trouble downloading things...until yesterday.

When I download something and open it with winrar as i did before and do with sims 2, the file is shown as an "Amiga Audio File" and a "cool edit" symbol. (This has happend wth every website i've downloaded from, www.aroundthesims.com was my favourite and never failed before now.)

Also, when I go to Maxis/The Sims There are no data folders or anything, just an icon to go to www.sims.com. I made my own download folder just in that bit, but my items wont show up in the game.

Can someone please help me, i really used to enjoy sims 1 and found the objects (especially all the cool downloaded objects) and game play more exciting and enjoyable than sims 2.

Thank you xxx

are you sure youre in the right folder? if so go to control panelfolder options and uncheck the following:
1:hide hidden folders 2:hide system folders that could harm my computer if deleted(not exactly called that but similar)

Your second problem is easy, you must have installed a new program and windows links the files. its not bothersome accept visually.
If you really want to know how to undo this, email me at:gruntlord6@hotmail.com
