My problem is my update isn't working. v 1.5.1.4
Gives me an error code..



Today it began freezing in one of my folders.. hadn't tried any others. Just quits responding.
Hadn't done that before.

Still hadn't found a place to read up on the colored lines in detail.. but seems red is more severely connected to core parts of the game?

EDIT: think it's trying to use an old file to update the program?

The Input string not a correct format is becuase of the web update.

Also, you really should try using the DDO for organising and sorting your downloads.

Story books are full of fairy tales, of Kings and Queens, and the bluest skies.

Ah, Thank you again! I did a search for this DDO you mentioned and found you have made a handy tool apparently.

Wow, it looks like a lifesaver!

Guess I blinked. *blush*

Have a wonderful week!

Default installer icon
hi all. is this normal?? I have never felt that my Clean Installer looked/worked like other folks did. When I pull up the Sims2Pack Clean Installer, there is a Sims2 icon in the left top corner. There is a zigzag line through it, kinda like Quicktime has when it has been improperly downloaded.

Is this an indication that there is a problem??

thanks in advance!
#36 Old 20th Jun 2007 at 5:24 AM
My Clean Installer looks different than the screenshots in the manual. I understand the manual, but I am incapable of figuring out how to use it becuse mine doesn't have any icons like it's supposed to. Pease help! I have no idea what to do. I installed the .NET first and I installed the Clean Installer fine, but when I double click on a package, all I get is the picture of the item. I don't even know if I have the packages saved in the right folder. Frankly, I now feel as though I know absolutely nothing about this. Again, to someone who REALLY understand this, please help. I refuse to give up.
Coffee, anyone?

A screenshot would help. :) Are you trying to install .package files with S2CI ? The cleaninstaller installs sims2pack files not .package files.

Here's a handy tutorial for downloading and installing content:

And I cannot install the new Sims 2 Pack Clean Installer.

I am very much in need of this program, the best thing we have for checking the files and I don't want to download any new files unless I have it again. Please, can anyone tell me how to delate the S2PCISE.exe file?


You have to use the uninstall function to get rid of this file. I tried to delete the Clean Installer manually, but that doesn't work.

hi all! I'm uploading some lots to MTS2 and I need help urgently!!! I don't know why, when I 'clean' the lots - when I delete the cc not allowed by their creators- and then save the game, the new saved lot's items appear as ''empty package'' in the clean installer, but when I install the lot, the items appear again in my downloads folder... however MTS2 staff won't allow my lots with apparently 'empty packages' in the file... I tried deleting the keys and everything and it won't work!!! help help help!!!!!!!!

You can't save it over itself. Use Save as and a different file name. Re-name afterwards if you want.


PS - CI still works for me and I have Seasons

Default NSIS error while attempting to run updated installer
I tried to download the updated version of the installer. I received this error once it downloaded and I attempted to run the program ...

"NSIS Error *The installer you are trying to use is corrupted or incomplete. This could be the result of a damaged disk, a failed download or a virus.

You may want to contact the author of this installer to obtain a new copy.

It may be possible to skip this check using the /NCRC command line switch (NOT RECOMMENDED).*"

I have tried reinstalling it and received the same error. I have uninstalled the previous version I had and I also followed the information in the "try this" thread and removed the proper reg keys. To no avail I am still unable to run the updated version of the installer.

I have read the stickys and other threads similar to this one and I have not read anything that has been able to assist me. If I missed anything, please point me in the right direction and I will try that, if not ... could someone please help me.

Default Newest Version of S2PCI 1.5.1.4
Hi. Well, I downloaded the newest verson of the Sims2Pack Clean Installer 1.5.1.4 from the website so I could post my lovely lot creations. I am trying to use the browse funtion at the top right of screen inorder to locate my .package files from the PackagedLots folder, but when I do, nothing shows up, and it acts as if the folder is empty, even though when I check through my computer, they are clearly there. I read everything there was to read, including the little section of how to package the .package files from the PackagedLots folder in order to put them into the game, and I am still having problems with the program. Is there anything anyone can do to help? I'd really like to contribute my creations to the site, but I also want to follow all the rules and run them through Clean Installer before I upload them. If you know anything, please help! Thanks!

Default "Clean" Installer seems to be anything but.
I'm trying to upload three lots; I've saved them as Sims2Packs, opened each with Clean Installer, unchecked all but the lot box, saved the bare-bones files and then installed them to check them out and -- guess what? They're all exact duplicates of the original Packs -- families and all. The "cleaned lots" even have their old names -- nothing was filtered out. The Update button just yields a lot of garbage as depicted above. What's up?
