    PandemicSamPandemicSam Posts: 3
    in The Sims 3 Store General Discussion
    i bought the Farm Fresh Folk Set which includes the Milkin' It Dairy Corral. I bought this and it says i own the cow corral but when i go to play the game it isn't there and i looked everywhere. is it something i didn't do or see or is there a bug with it (because i know this is a new thing)

    someone please help

      Hi Sam, you can find the corral in the outdoor activities tab, well, at least that is where I can find mine o.o .

      The cow corral can be found under either "outdoor activities" or "sculptures."

      The picture is really small and really hard to see the first time around. It took me awhile to find it, too.

      Also, be sure to check your Launcher, sometimes items can become uninstalled for no apparent reason. This happens to me sometimes :(

      try cleaning out cache files and testing in a new world
      http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Sims_3_Delete_Cache_Files

      also have you recently removed your ccmerged file from your dcbackup folder? if so you have two options - either uninstall store PC items and then reinstall to recreate the ccmerged file or use this replacement here

      I don't know if anyone has the same problem as me,but the milk cow is missing. :/
      Which means that I can't use the item...
      Does anyone know of a way to fix that?
      I'm getting very frustrated...

      :lol: On a different note , the third day my guy went out to milk the cow a large rear ended space rock crashed down and killed off the cow !!!
      The family is still in mourning and hasn't replaced the cow.

      A missing Cow is a case of missing resources. This can happen when the installation process doesn't complete correctly, or if one has installed a pirated version of the Corral.

      To fix missing resources, just re-install the Corral a few times on top of the current installation (do not uninstall the Corral first). This will not work for illegal downloads.

      You can learn more about missing resources here: http://nonasims.wordpress.com/2013/05/28/premium-content-missing-accessories/

      Any other ideas for finding the missing cow? I reinstalled it several times from both the set and individual item. Still no luck.

      This is kind of off-topic, but does anyone know if you can buy the cows individually in-game? I thought I heard that you could, but I haven't seen them in-game for quite some time.

      I apologize if this is considered necroposting...but I too have bought this item (it was an impulse, what's new) and the cow is there, but my Sim keeps making the "can't move invisible item blocking path" hand waving...I've updated my ccmerged, uninstalled and then downloaded/reinstalled the item to no luck.

      It's this, the baby swing and oddly enough the giant black spider decor (halloween) that cause game crashing, Sim resetting or plain just don't work. Stinks nothing has really been solved other than the few who are unlucky with it.
