Simsmomma: There is only one pack, not several. The Holiday Party Pack contains objects for all of the holidays, but mainly has Christmas objects.

Have a bright platinum diamond day!

Thank you. My little sis is getting holiday pack for me for the holidays, (at least, I asked for it, and when I asked her if anyone had gotten it for me yet or should I download it, she told me that *someone* had gotten it for me but wouldn't say who), but the little monster refuses to give it to me until the holidays! A bit stupid, really, considering she gets really mad if I play without her knowing.

Custom content not showing up
Hello, I just went out today and had to buy the whole sims2 again ( there were no just the holiday pack items cd for 14.99 at Gamestop or walmart, they were only shipped the actual sims2 holiday game Grrr!) So now my question is the things i download, do they still all go in the downloads folder?; because my downloads are not showing up.

P.S.
yes i do have the patch installed becos some download on here required it to be, if thats the problem what file do i look for to undue the darn patch?

Jerzidoll: I hope that you did not open the second Sims 2 game that you bought. The pack is available to those who already own Sims 2 (at the official Sims 2 site) for 14.99. You can get it by having the CD sent to you or by downloading directly from the site after purchasing. I hope that you can return your second game.

Have a bright platinum diamond day!

i already opened it and installed it, i dont understand why EA games couldnt have shipped just the party packs to be sold in stores also, instead of just the whole sims2, doesnt matter i will give my previous version of sims2 to my daughter.

Thank you! Very useful! =)

I wonder though why they don't let you use ALL the holiday items for a community lot? I'm trying to decorate my shopping center, and theres no snowman, nutcracker, indoor Christmas tree, and a whole bunch else they don't let you select >.<

So I'm asking if you'd maybe like to update this collection to work also for community lots? Is that possible? That would be really helpful!

Thanks. =)

The Dying Informant: It has been a while since I did one, but I believe that all you need to do is to copy the collection file and put the word "Community" at the end of it to make it usable on community lots. e.g. you have a collection called abcd.package. Copy the file and name the copy abcdCommunity.package and then this collection will be available on community lots. Try it and see if it works for you. Good luck!

Have a bright platinum diamond day!

Thank you so, so , so , so much simdebster, I was really a bit miffed when I purchased it and was not really sure where some of the 40 items were ...
Can't believe they did not include it (Maxis that is) ....

THANK YOU :D
