First question
are you putting files in
My Documents/Ea games/Sims2/Downloads
or Program Files/Ea games/Sims 2

if you chose the second it wont work

CEP goes in your downloads folder.

no i think i found it...

thanks guys for helping.. :)

only i dont understand it at all

i have now all my downloads in the folde downloads and saved sims... i copieed everything and then put them in both..

now half of my downloads shows up..
but most of the celebs that i downloaded are not coming up ( very weird..)

but now my game is soooooooooooooooooooooooooo slow.. i have 512 memory.. so i should be enough...

this sucks..

Make sure:
The CEP is in the Downloads folder (not in a subfolder)
That you have meshes and at least one recolour for all hair and clothing items
That you have custom content enabled and the dialog turned off, exactly as in Zen's image:

If your Sims, clothes and genetics do not show up, put them in the Saved Sims folder (but NOT in subfolders)
All files that are in the saved sims and Downloads folders must be .package files- NOT zip, rar or Sims2pack.
For your sims, you need to go into CAS and make a sim of the same age and gender as the sim you downloaded, then click on the 'choose existing sim' button:

If your game is running slowly, delete cigen and groups.cache from My documents/ EA Games/ The Sims2; also bear in mind that lots on which you use a lot of custom content may be slower.
