DigeratiPrime Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 I know this doesnt address your question, but if someone is looking for a way to share their neighborhoods with other users on a local machine I found a freeware program to do so here:http://www.rekenwonder.com/linkmagic.htmby default The Sims, and many other games, create a "EA Games" folder or something simliar in every users My Documents. Using this (LinkMagic) its possible to consolidate it into one folder for all users. This is also beneficial because it saves space.Might help someone.
