I recently installed the sims 3 and the sims 3 create a world on a new computer, and am working on a world that was previously heavily utilizing the plants from Lucky Palms. The objects were in create a world no problem without me having to do anything extra. However, since moving over to my new computer the plants no longer show up in the metadata. I have scoured the internet for a solution, and the only real solution I can come up with is decrappifying the objects and using them in create a world that way. However, I would really prefer not to do this and I don't think its even possible to do this as the programs used to do this will not open on my computer. Is there any way for me to try to re-enable these objects in create a world? My old computer is no longer usable.

Note: I already tried using supercaw, the objects didn't show up. Additionally, since store packages cannot be edited in s3pe, I don't see any way to just find the packages and enable them in caw that way.

Edit: After additional scouring I have finally solved my problem...

Here is a step by step on how I did it:

1. Run luckypalmsstandard.sims3pack through Sims3Pack Multi Installer. (luckypalmsstandard.sims3pack should be found in Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Downloads)
2. This should extract all the .package files from Lucky Palms into one folder.
3. Run this folder through the Compressorizor Redux, DO NOT decrapify the content for these purposes.
4. Place this folder in your packages folder for CAW if you have one, check and make sure the package files can be opened in S3PE beforehand.

Open CAW and make sure the Lucky Palms files have reappeared!
This ensures all objects previously enabled from Lucky Palms appear for use in the meta data, which is limited to only the plants except for the cacti, as well as ensuring the lots in the world using objects from Lucky Palms will appear correctly in CAW.
I don't know why this works it just ended up working for me.

What did you do? Glad you fixed it!

It was a long process of trial and error that eventually worked out but here is a step by step on how I did it. I know a couple other people had a similar issue last summer.
