An archive zip o rar with a gruop of .package files? Uhmmmm there is an other method. I think is better to re-package a new Sims2Pack without the meshes.
And it's easy to make a new Sims2Pack.

- Export your sim by BS. It'll include all the custom meshes.( I hate this!)

- Open the Sims2Pack with the Sims2Pack CleanInstaller.

- Search all the files of the custom meshes and deselect them

- Clik on Save as......

- Select the folder where you like to save the new file.

Now these steps are more important to get your new Sim2Pack works fine! Pay Attention, please.

1- In the Select filename dialog, enter a filename for the new .Sims2pack . Attention: ONLY the name, without format!

2- In the Save as dialog DON'T PUT ANYTHING! Leave it empty!

- Click Save

3- Now close the Sims2Pack CleanInstaller: clik Cancel or the red cross on the right top window. Don't close with OK or other bottons.

I don't know why, but the only way I find to get a new correct Sims2Pack is to follow the spets 1-2-3 as I explain.

If you open the new Sims2Pack you'll see that it includes all the files requered without the custom meshes.
Try your new Sims2Pack. Make sure it works fine before sharing it.
Hope this help you.

Sorry for my english

Are we sure this i s a really "bug"......? Perhaps they made this on purpose
