    Update: It's taken since the 18th of May but the uploader has finally allowed me to add Cove City late last night!

    I have to say I am really disappointed that after 3 months of hard work I cannot get my world onto the exchange at present, I have been trying to upload for 2 days with no success so I am including a mediafire link via this thread so you can download it.


    http://www.mediafire.com/?ra8k2xylxrwlvvw

    Here is the description that would have been on the exchange:

    "Exiciting busy city, situated next to a beautiful coastal area and countyside. All careers and collectables available. NO CUSTOM CONTENT USED, only my own patterns. All EP's & SP's used (Pre Generations). Lots include: Martial Arts Academy, Nectary, Allotments, Aquarium, Hotel, Football and Baseball Stadiums and Tennis Courts, Lots of bars and all of the usual lots also available.Hope you enjoy!"

    I will continue to try and get my world on the exchange and will update if I do!

      Did you upload it once before for testing? If so, you have to do some S3OC gymnastics to get it to re-upload.


      God Bless,

      Your world looks lovely!

      Since you haven't uploaded it before there is not need to use SP03. Just keep trying to upload it. :)

      Out of interest has anyone ever managed to get a world on the exchange after it has refused to upload for 2 weeks, and has been tried on a different computer???

      Shall I give up trying now??

      (54 mediafire downloads for anyone that is interested!)

      I just saw the slideshow of the pictures you linked - it looks amazing! I hope the upload is successful soon. I've bookmarked in anticipation of being able to download it once it does.

      Thanks KazzJazz - I hope it uploads too. You can download it from the mediafire link at the top of the page if you would like to.
      :)

      I have just started a new world 'Palm Bridge Islands'.
      (Fingers crossed this one uploads!) :mrgreen:

      Hi I downloaded your world and I absolutely love but everytime I save the file, exit the game and go back, it says I can't load the game because it was saved with an expansion pack that may no longer be present on my system. I haven't deleted anything and I can't figure out why it's happening.

      I'm not sure if i's because I renamed the town. I don't have a clue what's going on.

      I don't have fast lane, though so maybe that is the problem. Oh well, very nice town. So sorry that I can't play it. Was really looking forward to it.

      Hello BanjanT - Thanks for downloading and I am glad you like it. Very sorry to hear you are having a problem with the save files.
      It is not some thing I have experienced or had reported to me :cry:

      Try looking here as it is a fairly common problem in the game generally:
      http://www.neoseeker.com/forums/38767/t1407759-serious-error/

      I do not know what effect the name change may have had.

      Let me know how you get on.

      Perhaps the name change has caused a problem.

      Good luck. :)

      I really can't understamd why this may be happening to yourself and Banjan.

      Does anyone else know??? I hate to think i may have uploaded something that it is faulty. They have been working perfectly on my 2 computers.

      Has anyone downloaded them that are not experiencing any problems of this nature??

      Feedback please.

      PS: thanks BenJekyll I am really glad you still like them, perhaps you can let me know if your game is saving ok if you read this???
      :oops:

      Hi, :)

      You can not use a . in the world name. It will give the reload/save error. I think I read this from AuntieLynds... :D

      Ahh oh no, do you know if there is anything either I or people that have downloaded the worlds can do to fix? I had to include the . as I was having problems with the launcher and needed to see if it would download with different name (so I added the .) I know better than that now and won't be doing it again!

      Am I right in thinking that if I change the name and reupload it will not work as the world is technically in the exchange already?

      Just thinking aloud, but will it help if after a simmer has saved their 1st save they go into the file and change the name and remove the dot??
      ??? Thoughts please ???

      Sure they can save the install but I'm not sure about the save... They can go into the InstalledWorld folder and rename Cove Cit..world to Cove City.world
      Just remove the extra .

      Next time you want to rename to show an update or new version you can use the Roman Numerals- which are letters
      I
      II
      III
      IV
      V
      VI
      VII :D
      Or letters
      A
      B
      C
      D
      E.... :D
