You guys DO have a TSData folder - you're just probably looking in My Documents, not Program Files. If you didn't have that folder, your game wouldn't run.

great tutorial
I found your tutorial very helpful and have now made twonew casscreens . But I was wondering do you or any one else know how to make a yacas screen for university.
I attempted it but it didn't show up. I could use a little help.

I realize this is a very old thread, but I didn't want to start a brand new thread just to ask this question, so here goes nothing:

What ever happened to the mentioned "second tutorial" that was supposed to explain all about using the invisible CAS objects during a custom CAS creation?

I actually followed everything correctly an read it over and over an i cant find the lot in my bin when i start my game and go into the CAS neighborhood.. :/
Im not really sure what im doing wrong..i read it step by step over and over again, im using the 'AGS (Standard)' cuz i have all eps and sps, but i unchecked "Holiday Stuff' & 'Seasons' cuz you guys said it would freeze my sim an i dont want that xD

I haven't read the comments, so I don't know if this has been said. If you have Seasons, you can edit the actual seasons so its just Summer all the time, it might rain, which might be kinda funny lol

Strays don't usually enter a house unless they are greeted first. So I doubt that would be a problem

I'm up to step 10. but there's a problem:

When I enter to my created neighborhood (for example 'CAS') folder, I went to it's lots folder but there's more than one lots (there's 14 of them) and I don't know which one is my custom CAS lot
I swear I didn't place any lots in that neighborhood except 'jkgbkyuy'

EDIT: Nevermind, I fixed it, Just copy the 'latest' lot

I'm playing The Sims 2 Ultimate Collections and I don't know if Basegamestarter will work for my game
I wish there is a other way to fix the 'freezing sims' bug

& the camera that doesn't show properly when my screen res is 1920x1080 -_-

I've followed the tut, but I couldn't use the CAS I created because I'd only got a pale blue screen, no sim, no decoration, no anything... so I guess maybe i didn't use the correct CAS! file, I play Ultimate Collection, where is the CAS! file I should use or what is the last ep in UC? Thanks.

Good to know because it happened to me too.

All the EPs have a GlobalLots folder, in which there is the same file CAS!.package. It doesn't matter which one you choose to import and edit in game. After you're done editing, in your Neighborhoods folder, the most recent lot added should be the CAS lot ("jkgbkyuy"). Copy that file to your Downloads folder and rename it from "N002_Lot23.package" to "CAS!.package". (Regarding struck numbers - your mileage may vary.)

If you decide not to have the CAS lot in your Downloads folder, you can place it in your GlobalLots folders - and you'll have to replace every file, for each EP.

Thanks so much, and the patience too, I too was sitting here silently screaming at the silly questions as I was reading the comments lol. Also, some tips, put a fence around the lot to prevent strays or wolves etc. andif you can't find the lot file after making it use the boolprop showlotfilepackagefilename true cheat to find the name of the lot (in neighbourhood view hover over the lot with the cursor after putting the cheat in) it will show you where to find it as well, mine wasn't where i expected it to be and this helped me.

Great tute! I had actually seen that CAS! file before, but didn't know it was a lot. Anyway, thanks!
