It will ONLY take the lot and all your hard work with it. You can do this to a lot of any type at any stage. It will be in your Lot Catalog forever now, or until deleted by you. So, if you have files in there named cx_00000001.package all the way up to, say, cx_00000021.package then you need to name it cx_00000022.package.īasically, that is it. It will appear in your Lot Catalog when you do this right away in your game while running.ĥ.) Go to your game screen and open the cheat menu (Ctrl + Shift + C)Ħ.) Type in "boolprop ShowLotPackageFilename true" without the quotationsħ.) Hover over the lot you want saved, with or without Sims living in it, and remember the file nameĨ.) Go back to the lots folder you have open from your neighborhood and find the file nameġ0.) Go to C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR NAME\My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\LotCatalogġ2.) Rename the file cx_00000001.package and if that name is taken, rename it whatever the next number is available. * Side Note * - You can do all of this while the game is running. Then I think to myself, "Damn it, I wish it was that version of the house in my Lot Catalog," well there is an easy way to put the updated version in your Lot Catalog without the family (unlike packaging the lot with them or moving them out and losing all the details).ġ.) Go to C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR NAME\My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\ģ.) Go to the Neighborhood with the lot you want saved in your Lot Catalog
Also, sometimes I'll place the lot and move a family in, and then due to new EPs or SPs I will update the lot that my family is living in.
I do this a way that a lot of people don't, because most people just package their lots and then install them that way.
I am big into created awesome lots that are fully furnished and ready to go, I then save them, and place them in my Lot Catalog so I can play them anytime I want in the future.
