Sorry, but it didn't work. Maybe I should install it again.

	I play Sims in German, so I apologize in advance for any "funny/wrong English term" I might use when describing something about the game. ;)

After fighting with it for quite a time, I decided to try saving and exiting EIG, even though I hadn't managed to build anything. Then saved the world in CAW again, in sim view, loaded EIG again, and tadaa, it works. So people still having this problem, try saving EIG before exiting, even though you see blue when in lot view. Then Save in Caw, and load EIG again. I hope this helps.

Also I do have the correct caw version, I had at a moment the problem caw did not work with the game but found proper info in here to find the right versin,m so thats a check now. Placing a tree, I will try the saving tips and placing a tree tip now.
