Is it normal? - Joann - 12-12-2008 05:17 AM
I downloaded... 'some' ((a lot ;P)) custom content onto my game, and when I started it up, it showed a box with a list of all of the items/hair/etc. The box said something about these items may cause a disturbance or... something like that with my game. Like, a warning that if the items arn't stable, it will mess up my game.
Is that normal, or not?
Is it just letting you know that they're there and things may happen if they arn't... 'good'?

well I downloaded a guitar and the thing that happen was that when I started the game that box showed up. I accpeted it and the guitar began flasing in different colours of blue {blink} but you can make that stop it by selecting the same guitar in the mirror, you know. then it doesnt blink XD same thing with the hair and other objects.

i download alot and you can stop it from making the box pop-up in options.
it is normal you always get it when downloading content, esspecially objects.
the only thing i recomend is to make sure all your downloads have been scanned by
Norton AntiVirus or anyother security program that you have installed. my computer/game
is fine. but it does cause a threat if it holds viruses. just be sure the sites you download from are
safe for your game and computer

Its normal. It depends on what you downloaded though. Its just a thing that tells you if it changes the coding of your game or something. I wouldn't worry about it until something actually does happen.

It is normal.
As for the flashing blue, that means that either the mesh isn't properly installed or the file for that object is missing (moved/deleted) from the folder that the program was looking in.

Okay, thanks.

Just making sure incase it's telling me those things were going to crash something.
;D

Never had this happen before when I had the CC enabled.
Mostly when I disable the CC, the objects are replaced with Maxis objects and either their colour is messed up or flashing blue. It was annoying. Now since I installed AL this thing has been fixed.
