Q. I just downloaded a bedroom set from Mod the Sims 2, extracted the RAR file, put it in the Downloads folder, etc, etc. But my question now is how do I find it in the game? It's not in the buy catalog. Where do I find it?
A. It should show up in the buy catalogue; sometimes creators put the sets in collections, so perhaps you should look there too. If it doesn't show up I'd suspect that the download wasn't extracted or placed properly, or even that the download was corrupted.
Where can I find good quality cherry bedroom furniture on line?
Q. My style is traditional. I want a medium cherry. I like panel beds, not sleigh beds. But most panel beds are boring... need something with a little bit of curve on sides, not just a big box look. I have looked EVERYWHERE on line and just can't find a bed & bedroom set I like. HELP!! We are willing to spend a decent amount of money for something we are going to love for years.
A. Cherry furniture custom
I can see why you have been having an impossible time finding quality solid Cherry furniture. 99.99% of cherry furniture is a combination of Hardwood and hardwood veneer over particleboard with a Cherry finish. Import is the name of the game no matter who the maker is. There is virtually no large scale furniture manufacturing in America today. One option is custom furniture offered by small craft shops in the mid west. Often Amish or Mennonite shops make very fine furniture in your choice of woods. We have Amish craftsman that can offer Solid cherry with impeccable quality. One group being manufactured for www.barnfurnituremart.com has the curved lines you spoke of that we stock in Quarter Sawn White Oak. These pieces can be made in Solid Cherry to your size specifications and in any piece either bedroom, dining room, or any other piece you would like. The link shows this group with Mission Style handles in Oak; however, we added the Mission handles and changed the wood to turn it into Mission. We can easily use any other styles of hardware.
It is always best to start with one small piece to get an idea of the quality of the shop and you should beware of Amish makers who are Amish furniture brokers. Their prices are higher and sometime the quality is not as good.
We have many customers that fly in to visit our store which has been in the same location for 65 years.

How to add unzipped files into Sims 2 game?
Q. I've unzipped and extracted the files to the EA Games/Downloads folder.. but now I don't know how to add them to my Sims 2 game? Any help?
THANKS SO MUCH!
Also, the files are like bedroom sets and stuff.

A. Once more into the famous canned answer file . . .
First and most importantly make sure you download this file: it is called "CEP" - Color Enable Package v. 7.0 and you can find it at http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=92541
This file is an EXE file and all you need to to is download it and double click on it to install.
Next, find the file you want to add to your game. READ the info on it. Look to see if it requires a MESH file that is not included. If you need to download a separate MESH, make sure that you do this or the thing will not work.
Download the file and the MESH. Remember where you put it.
Unzip, unrar, un7z it into the following folder:
My Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2/Downloads
If it doesn't exist, make it.
If you don't have Winzip you can find it here:
http://www.download-zone-free.com/winzip/?OVRAW=winzip&OVKEY=winzip&OVMTC=standard&OVADID=1567058522&OVKWID=13322523022
If you don't have WinRAR you can find it here:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
When you start your program the next time it will tell you Custom Content has been found, make sure you enable custom content. Turn off the game then start it again.
Now play, go to your buy mode or build mode and see if your new stuff appears in the catalog. It should.
Have fun.

Any ideas on how to cover/hide a television in a bed room?
Q. I just found a bed room set at Ashley's furniture store and it is amazing. The problem is it doesn't have the matching armior. I was thinking about putting a flat screen tv on the chest that goes with the bedroom set, but I don't want it to be visible. Any ideas on how I can hide the tv when it is not in use?
A. Find a carpenter who can make a small cabinet that would match. It would be similar to a dart-board game style...
Or check with the manufacturer, see if they have a website, and perhaps you can special order the armoir. If you're willing to pay, there is always someone willing to sell.
Maybe, you'll just chance upon a matching article on ebay or Tuesday Morning that can be modified?
