Help, packages won't show up :(
I have created some walls and floors with HCP. But after I put the packages file to the downloads folder, and start the game, it wont show up. so, why? can somebody please help me?

P.S. I've changed the file names (with .package on the back)

Err, the files will already be -in- the Downloads folder when created, so I'm guessing you're moving them somewhere they don't need to be. You shouldn't have to move anything.

Yeah I know it's automatically on the download folder. But I didn't move anything. Is renaming the file cause it? Thanks for replying

Assuming you didn't put any strange characters in the filename, and it is unique, there shouldn't be a problem with renaming. It was the 'wall-gobbledygook.pkg' file that you renamed, right?

Well, you said you put the packages in the Downloads folder so that sort of implies that you moved it...

Renaming, as long as you do it properly and don't give it a massively long filename, usually isn't a problem. If it's named something like "GreenStripedWall.package" or whatever, that should work fine. Maybe you messed up in renaming it. Can you show us a screenshot of the files in your Downloads folder, with file extensions on and the full filenames showing (details view is good for that)?
