File Types
Furniture & Objects may include the following different types of files:
.iff files can be placed in any 1 of 3 objects folders, skin parts for objects need to be put in your gamedata\skins folder.
Some objects are cloned from Simday Official objects. Run the included executable to add the base object to your game before adding the clone.
Full instructions can be found in our Support Area:
Invisible NPCs
This happens because you did not put the skin files in your Skins folder
Sims can't use an NPC object
Usually this happens because other visitors to the lot are using the object. Your Sims will have to wait their turn. This is very common with Food stations, Bars and Pet Pens.
Check that you have installed ALL .iff files in the zip, most NPC objects consist of multiple .iff files all of which must be in your game for the object to work
Hotels & Restaurants will not function if you don't have other required object types on the lot (i.e. beds, fridges, sinks etc). These required objects must be accessible to Sims
