Sims2 Legacy Collection and BodyShop
Since S2 Legacy Collection didn't come with BodyShop, I've been trying to work out a way to get it to work using copies of BodyShop and Package Installer from my Sims2 Ultimate Collection.
I assumed, and wrongly, that this might be as easy as restoring the IKEA Stuff pack, but unfortunately it isn't.
Since BodyShop, in a UC install, is located here:
C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Fun with Pets\SP9\CSBin
I just went ahead and recreated the missing SP9\CSBin directories folder here:
C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 2 Legacy\SP9\CSBin
Then I added the TS2BodyShop.exe and PackageInstaller.exe files there.
Upon trying to launch BodyShop, nothing happened; it wouldn't execute.
Digging a bit deeper on this matter, I found the following Steam Tutorial on how to Install BodyShop with S2LC:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfi.../?id=3420320277
I really would rather not monkey about in my Registry if I don't have to, but at this point it seems that it *might* be the Only way to get BodyShop rolling with the Legacy Collection. However, since I don't have the S2LC installed via Steam, but the EA App, I'm also not comfortable following the tutorial at steam.
I was curious if anyone here has managed to get BodyShop going with the S2LC yet.
*I can't believe EA re-released S2 Without BodyShop. :<
Many Thanks in Advance for any and all help/tips/direction on this matter.
