    The folder needs to start with a capital D
    and it's not supposed to be in the Install folder of Sims 2 but inside "My Documents" so the complete path should read something like
    My Documents/EA games/SIMS 2/Downloads
    And yes, ZIP and RAR files need to be unpacked, Sims2packages need to be installed, so that all what's in your download folder are just .package files.

    Take a look at the FAQs, krazzy. There's a totally awesome, illustrated downloads tutorial there with all the answers to well, everything. The FAQs link is in my signature and also right next to the Post New Thread Button
    on every page with a Post New Thread button :rolleyes:

    sims2packages are packages which can contain multiple items (you'll come across that format if you download lots(with furniture, appliences/landscapng etc) or complete sims (incl. clothes makeup etc.)...you get the drift.
    These packages don't belong into the download folder but need to be extracted first. if you have one...just doubleclick it which triggers the extracting process

    oh my gosh... i found out what the problem is at last... I look it out on sims wikia.. anyway, in the settings of the sims 2 you have to enable the content package or something like that in the game and restart.. it works now..:D :rolleyes:
