I'm stuck at being able to extract the files. It says the file is locked, and if I'm suppose to put part.2 inside the password box I can not. Is that what I'm suppose to do? Or am I completely in the wrong direction? (By the way my .rar extractor is HamsterArchiver)

I've got a quick question - when you say there are real sidewalks under the trails, are you meaning that the sidewalks are buried under the ground slightly and the trails are painted on; or that the sidewalks use custom texture to look like trails (which is what most people do).

Darn it, Jzip keeps telling me that the files fail the integrity test and that they're corrupted. I've downloaded them several times ...but it refuses to open them.
Someone please suggest a program that worked for you to get these open? I'd love to build in this world. I'm very nearly done with the medieval world I've been working on for the last month (it also has no roads, which I love, I just wish it were a little bigger, it's a small world, which is hard for the horses at times) and I was thinking I might see what would happen if I started putting my existing lots down in this one...see if it has more room for the horses so I could have bigger lots....

I cannot seem to be able to install this, it says the file is broken. I use 7zip for extracting, and when I try to install the sims3pack, it tells me my game is not update enough but I have the latest patch. When I try to use the decrapifier, it tells me the file is corrupted.

I have gone out to find myself. If you see me before I get back, please let me know where I'll be.

Sidewalks are using a custom opacity level, which renders them basically invisible.

Default Install errors:
For people having troubles unrar-ing and installing the files, here's the MTS guide to multipart files installs, which I am also going to put link to in overview:

I've followed the directions and I cannot get the second part out of the file no matter what I do. 7zip says the file is broken.

Unfortunately I can't think of any reason that'd still be happening, I'm not familiar with 7zip. It might be you have to rename the .rar files a little to make it fit what it expects? Does it give a message as to what file it is looking for after it's dealt with part 1?

Got it! There must have been a corruption with my first download; I redownloaded and it extracted fine. Looks so cute in game. Thanks!

I don't usually download worlds, but I had to have this one! This world is amazing! I wish I could go there myself! I love all the little details, waterfalls, caves etc. You really put a lot of thought and work into it.

I can't wait to see it when you've made lots for it, but I was wondering if you could add one now? I was trying to use it as a vacation destination with NRAAS Traveller Mod and it doesn't work, probably because the game has no place to put the sims?
