h3 style=text-align: left;So what is it?/h3
div style=text-align: left;span class=aimgr/spanspan class=aimgr /span/div
pspan class=aimgrimg src=http://www.thesimsresource.com/images/wizguide/smallshot.gif border=0 width=234 height=149 style=border: 0; float: right; margin: 10px; //spanThe TSR Installation Wizard has been designed to completely manage
your downloaded and installed files from The Sims Resource. No more
need for WinZip ort even Explorer! You can forget all about extracting
files to the correct game folders and concentrate on expanding and
playing your favourite game instead!/p
p style=text-align: left;TSR's subscribers will be able to install individual items, skins,
houses and even entire design sets at the click of a link. Spend time
browsing the site, adding content to your download basket as you go.
When you're finished, hit the install link and all of your selected
items will be installed to your game fo inclusion the next time you
load it up. strongThat's it - quick, simple and fun!/strong/p
pYou can even use the Wizard to view the items that you have
installed into your game, and remove them as and when you like, again
at the single click of a link. You will even see the preview image of
the items in your game, not just the easy to mistake name. You can even
remove all related items from sets just as quickly and easily!/p
h3How it works/h3
pThe TSR Installation Wizard installs the files in the right location
(the game data library) with a single click on the Install with
Wizard button available for each file in our archives. After
installing one item, the Install button will be replaced with an
Installed button - click on this button if you want to remove an
installed item./p
pimg src=http://www.thesimsresource.com/images/wizguide/wizard1.gif border=0 width=28 height=28 style=border: 0; / This is how the Install with Wizard button looks like./p
pimg src=http://www.thesimsresource.com/images/wizguide/wizard2.gif border=0 width=28 height=28 style=border: 0; / This is how the Installed button looks like./p
pstrongNote:/strong You can't uninstall houses in the same way
that you can uninstall other items like objects and skins. All house
files must exist in the game, or it will fail to load. To remove a
downloaded house, bulldoze it in the game, or download another house
for the same Lot to overwrite it./p
pIf you for some reason would like to disable the wizard on the item
pages, this can be done by either clicking on Disable wizard in the
left submenu of all download pages or by going to the preferences and
selecting No for Display wizard. You can still put the items in the
download basket and use to wizard to install all items you've placed
there./p
h3Will it work?/h3
pThe Installation Wizard only works on Windows and with the following browsers:/p
p- Internet Explorer (5, 5.5 and 6)br / - Mozilla browsers (Firefox 0.9 and Mozilla 1.6) with 3:Rd party ActiveX-plugin, not guaranteed to work./p
h3Wizard Frequently Asked Questions/h3 olliIs the TSR Installation Wizard only for subscribers?br /Yes, the TSR Installation Wizard is only for subscribers to TSR./liliWhat technology does the Wizard use?br /The Wizard is created as an ActiveX component. This means it only
works with Windows. Only Windows IE has native support for ActiveX./lili class=qDoes the Wizard work with Mac?br /The Wizard is Windows only./lili class=qDoes the Wizard work with Netscape or Opera?/liliNo, the Wizard does not work with Netscape or Opera as they do not support ActiveX./liliWhen I am prompted to install the Installation Wizard, it says IBIBI AB as the publisher instead of TSR - why?br /IBIBI AB is the company responsible for running TSR. Certificates
can only be issued to registered company, that's why we can't have
TSR there even though we might like to./liliI don't want to use the Installation Wizard - how do I disable it?br /You can click the link Disable Wizard on any item page./liliWhere are the individual files installed?br /- Regular skins, Heads and Animal Skins are put in GameData, Skins.br /- Walls and Murals are put in GameData, Walls, TSRdownloads.br /- Floors are put in in in GameData, Floors, TSRdownloads.br /- Objects are put in GameData, UserObjects, TSRdownloads.br /- For houses, you select in which neighborhood to place the .iff file. That is, the .iff file is put in UserData, Houses - where is
the neighborhood you select. Walls, Floors and Roofs that come with the
house is placed in the normal location for those items.br /- Sets are just a collection of other items, mostly objects, and those items are put in the normal directory for that item type./lili class=qCan I change the directory where the items are installed?br /In the current version of the Installation Wizard you can't - but in a future version you might./liliThe Installation Wizard gives me an error saying Could not initizlize SQLLite - how do I solve this?br /Please try to close all browser windows, and then open a new one. If this doesn't help, please try to reboot your computer./liliMy wizard loads and ends up Wizard Not Installed - how do I install it?br /The reason for this could be one of many. A common reason is the
new Win XP Service Pack 2 security blocker that automatically blocks
the installation/loading of the wizard, unless you manually change it.
To do this, you need to click on the Security Bar that appears at the
top of the page (it has a shield icon) and follow the instructions
there./liliMy wizard still ends up Wizard Not Installed - why?br /You need to have access to install programs on the computer. On
Windows XP only administrators and privelieged users can do this./liliI have ActiveX installed - I still get an error saying Incorrect version or the loading screen hangs?br /This is because the automatic update meant to happen does not work
in Mozilla browsers and in rare cases fails in Windows IE. You need to
uninstall your wizard and reinstall it again. There is only one way to
do this if you use an old version of the Wizard. Locate your
Downloaded Program Files folder, usually located in C:\WINDOWS\. In
that folder you need to remove the program called
TSRFileManagerXControl. Now your Wizard is removed and the newest
version should install automatically when you visit one of the download
pages. Once you have the new Wizard installed you can easily uninstall
it by clicking on the Uninstall wizard link in the left menu on all
download pages./liliHow do I install the Wizard?br /The wizard should be installed automatically but if it doesn't
install you can download the installer and install yourself. You can a href=http://www.thesimsresource.com/wizard.msidownload it here/a.
If you have enabled your Wizard on the Account Settings/Preferences
page it should install automatically when you go to a download page.

So what is it?
 
The TSR Installation Wizard has been designed to completely manage
your downloaded and installed files from The Sims Resource. No more
need for WinZip ort even Explorer! You can forget all about extracting
files to the correct game folders and concentrate on expanding and
playing your favourite game instead!
TSR's subscribers will be able to install individual items, skins,
houses and even entire design sets at the click of a link. Spend time
browsing the site, adding content to your download basket as you go.
When you're finished, hit the install link and all of your selected
items will be installed to your game fo inclusion the next time you
load it up. That's it - quick, simple and fun!
You can even use the Wizard to view the items that you have
installed into your game, and remove them as and when you like, again
at the single click of a link. You will even see the preview image of
the items in your game, not just the easy to mistake name. You can even
remove all related items from sets just as quickly and easily!
How it works
The TSR Installation Wizard installs the files in the right location
(the game data library) with a single click on the Install with
Wizard button available for each file in our archives. After
installing one item, the Install button will be replaced with an
Installed button - click on this button if you want to remove an
installed item.
 This is how the Install with Wizard button looks like.
 This is how the Installed button looks like.
Note: You can't uninstall houses in the same way
that you can uninstall other items like objects and skins. All house
files must exist in the game, or it will fail to load. To remove a
downloaded house, bulldoze it in the game, or download another house
for the same Lot to overwrite it.
If you for some reason would like to disable the wizard on the item
pages, this can be done by either clicking on Disable wizard in the
left submenu of all download pages or by going to the preferences and
selecting No for Display wizard. You can still put the items in the
download basket and use to wizard to install all items you've placed
there.
Will it work?
The Installation Wizard only works on Windows and with the following browsers:
- Internet Explorer (5, 5.5 and 6) - Mozilla browsers (Firefox 0.9 and Mozilla 1.6) with 3:Rd party ActiveX-plugin, not guaranteed to work.
Wizard Frequently Asked Questions Is the TSR Installation Wizard only for subscribers?Yes, the TSR Installation Wizard is only for subscribers to TSR.What technology does the Wizard use?The Wizard is created as an ActiveX component. This means it only
works with Windows. Only Windows IE has native support for ActiveX.Does the Wizard work with Mac?The Wizard is Windows only.Does the Wizard work with Netscape or Opera?No, the Wizard does not work with Netscape or Opera as they do not support ActiveX.When I am prompted to install the Installation Wizard, it says IBIBI AB as the publisher instead of TSR - why?IBIBI AB is the company responsible for running TSR. Certificates
can only be issued to registered company, that's why we can't have
TSR there even though we might like to.I don't want to use the Installation Wizard - how do I disable it?You can click the link Disable Wizard on any item page.Where are the individual files installed?- Regular skins, Heads and Animal Skins are put in GameData, Skins.- Walls and Murals are put in GameData, Walls, TSRdownloads.- Floors are put in in in GameData, Floors, TSRdownloads.- Objects are put in GameData, UserObjects, TSRdownloads.- For houses, you select in which neighborhood to place the .iff file. That is, the .iff file is put in UserData, Houses - where is
the neighborhood you select. Walls, Floors and Roofs that come with the
house is placed in the normal location for those items.- Sets are just a collection of other items, mostly objects, and those items are put in the normal directory for that item type.Can I change the directory where the items are installed?In the current version of the Installation Wizard you can't - but in a future version you might.The Installation Wizard gives me an error saying Could not initizlize SQLLite - how do I solve this?Please try to close all browser windows, and then open a new one. If this doesn't help, please try to reboot your computer.My wizard loads and ends up Wizard Not Installed - how do I install it?The reason for this could be one of many. A common reason is the
new Win XP Service Pack 2 security blocker that automatically blocks
the installation/loading of the wizard, unless you manually change it.
To do this, you need to click on the Security Bar that appears at the
top of the page (it has a shield icon) and follow the instructions
there.My wizard still ends up Wizard Not Installed - why?You need to have access to install programs on the computer. On
Windows XP only administrators and privelieged users can do this.I have ActiveX installed - I still get an error saying Incorrect version or the loading screen hangs?This is because the automatic update meant to happen does not work
in Mozilla browsers and in rare cases fails in Windows IE. You need to
uninstall your wizard and reinstall it again. There is only one way to
do this if you use an old version of the Wizard. Locate your
Downloaded Program Files folder, usually located in C:\WINDOWS\. In
that folder you need to remove the program called
TSRFileManagerXControl. Now your Wizard is removed and the newest
version should install automatically when you visit one of the download
pages. Once you have the new Wizard installed you can easily uninstall
it by clicking on the Uninstall wizard link in the left menu on all
download pages.How do I install the Wizard?The wizard should be installed automatically but if it doesn't
install you can download the installer and install yourself. You can download it here.
If you have enabled your Wizard on the Account Settings/Preferences
page it should install automatically when you go to a download page.
You can at any time choose to disable the Wizard from the Preferences
page, and naturally enable it again at any time.If the automatic update fails, how do I manually delete the old version so I can get the newest?If you have installed the wizard using the Installer you can remove
the wizard by opening the Control Panel and then Add remove
programs.  If the wizard has been installed automatically: Locate your Downloaded Program Files folder, usually located in

			<title>About 'The Sims Resource'</title>
			<link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.thesimsresource.com/helpcenter/view-post/post/2741/"/>			<id>http://www.thesimsresource.com/helpcenterview-post/post/2741/</id>			<updated>2006-06-10T00:00:00Z</updated>			<content type="html">h2 class=nhpWhat TSR is all about?/h2
pThe Sims Resource (TSR) was created in August 1999, a full 6 months before 'The Sims 1' was released, by which time we had over 1,000 downloads available for the game. The site has maintained itself as the largest site supporting 'The Sims' games ever since./p
p style=display: inline; font-weight: bold; font-size: 15px; float: right; margin: 18px; width: 250px; line-height: 20px;full access to over 600,000 downloads with enhanced tools and features for sorting, searching and installing/p
pTSR was created with an ethos to Create amp; Share. We provide the tools and information needed for people to create items to expand 'The Sims' games and then encourage them to share those creations with the massive gaming community. We provide feedback for their work in the form of download counts, thanks and guestbook's, and reward them with free access to download the work of their fellow creators./p
pWhen the internet advertising industry bubble burst a few years ago, TSR, like most other large download sites, was faced with a dilemma.

The Sims Resource (TSR) was created in August 1999, a full 6 months before 'The Sims 1' was released, by which time we had over 1,000 downloads available for the game. The site has maintained itself as the largest site supporting 'The Sims' games ever since.
full access to over 600,000 downloads with enhanced tools and features for sorting, searching and installing
TSR was created with an ethos to Create amp; Share. We provide the tools and information needed for people to create items to expand 'The Sims' games and then encourage them to share those creations with the massive gaming community. We provide feedback for their work in the form of download counts, thanks and guestbook's, and reward them with free access to download the work of their fellow creators.
When the internet advertising industry bubble burst a few years ago, TSR, like most other large download sites, was faced with a dilemma. The cost of maintaining the site was starting to outweigh the income from advertising, and so the decision was made to provide both free content and subscription only facilities at the site. After much tweaking this has since proved to be a very successful way of providing a huge amount of quality content for both free site users and those willing or able to pay a small amount towards the running and development costs of the site, in return for full access to over 600,000 downloads with enhanced tools and features for sorting, searching and installing their favorite items into the game.
