Attention Sims website owners!

Happy New Year!

*update 2* All Sims 3 downloads are now in the cloud and you will notice MUCH faster loading times for those pages as well. Sims 2 is underway and will be launched soon. Enjoy!

*update* Due to an unforseen bug we need to postpone this rollout a few days - downloads will resume as they were until then. We will update you when we have solved the problems.

In an effort to make TSR better we have made some pretty significant changes under the hood. We are hard at work on the next version of TSR and part of that involves moving our entire site infrastructure, database and file serving into the cloud. We decided that the downloads should be moved into the cloud also for v7 and starting today you will notice much faster download speeds and loading times on the download pages.

In the process we had to get rid of some download options:

  • We have removed the .tsr download option for sets as it was no longer fully working.
  • The option to download single item sims3pack as Zip files has been removed.

All sims3pack files are transfered in compressed form so there is no gain in keeping them in Zip archives. Sets are still downloaded as Zip archives however.

If you have any problems with our new cloud-based downloading, don't hesitate to contact our support desk.

We hope you enjoy our changes and there are lots more to come!

I can't download subscriber items and am a subscriber. Closed site and logged in again, and cannot. Did deep refresh, and still cannot download them! Not happy.

Forgot to note that when downloading yesterday the site was slow as molasses. Things have gotten slower, not faster, so far. Hope this changes soon.

JoLovesSims3, nothing will change about that. You can place your downloaded sims3packs in the downloads folder the same ways as you placed the sims3packs from the zip in your downloads folder \:\)

As I said on the other news piece, it's not working for Google Chrome's browser, clicking the green arrow doesn't do anything - and yes I've F5-ed, relogged and cleared cache. I've also tried testing it on two different days. The page thinks you have downloaded as it opens up the option to thank the artist or comment on their creation, but it doesn't actually open up a download dialogue box. The basket, however, works without any problems in Chrome.

I am finding that I can upload my submissions but the pics aren't coming up at all on any of my submissions except for those that have already been published. Don't know if this is related to the upgrade or not but it was working fine yesterday.

Im not happy that the downloading as .zip file has been removed. For me this was the only reliable way of downloading from this website. The other option gave me a lot of corrupted files that didnt show right in the launcher. I have no clue how to solve this, also this happens only with the sim3pack download option on this website (not the option that gives the .zip file).

So I always downloaded as .zip, Can I not download for free anymore because they got rid of that option?
