Default CAW tips and tricks
After nearly ten years of playing this game, I think it's high time I try and create my own world for it.

But I have no idea where to start! Does Create-a-World even still work? Can I get some advice?

Well, I think I've answered my first question. I tried downloading CAW, clicked the agreement, and... nothing happened. I made sure it was the correct version, and I am on PC, but I can't even find it in my downloads page!

Hi, if you are installing to the default location, you'll probably need to run as an administrator. Also, make sure you have the right version of CAW for your gameversion. Are you running 1.67 or 1.69?

Also, if the download is not working for you, here are the direct links to the downloads (as shared by simsample elsewhere ):
1.67: lvlt.thesims3.com//content/global/downloads/caw/worldtool.exe
1.69: lvlt.thesims3.com//content/global/downloads/caw/ts3caw.exe

I have 1.69, but I tried downloading both and neither would even show up in my downloads folder.

Download this one then as linked before by Norn:
http://lvlt.thesims3.com//content/g.../caw/ts3caw.exe
It's the direct link so you should get the 'save as' dialog pop up straight away.
