Game guide:Re-adding Kim and Kat families

This tutorial is for The Sims 2 only.

Each expansion packs excluding Nightlife adds new families in Family Bin. Pets also adds two new families in House and Lot Bin, the Kim and Kat families, along with their houses. Unfortunately, these two families can only be moved in one neighborhood, unlike other Family Bin families. If you want to re-add Kim and Kat families back to the Lot Bin, follow this instruction:


 * 1) Make sure you already moved Kim and Kat families into a neighborhood. Otherwise, you won't be needing to read this tutorial.
 * 2) Browse C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Pets\TSData\Res\UserData\LotCatalog.
 * 3) Check the files inside the folder:
 * 4) *cx_00000001.package is Kim Family house file.
 * 5) *cx_Character_cx_00000001_XXXXXXXX.package is the household file, or Sim files. There are 5 of it with different XXXXXXXX.
 * 6) *cx_00000004.package is Kat Family house file.
 * 7) *cx_Character_cx_00000004_XXXXXXXX.package is the household file, or Sim files. There are 4 of it with different XXXXXXXX.
 * Now, copy all above files (total: 11) to anywhere, like Desktop.
 * 1) Browse C:\Documents and Settings\otto\My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\LotCatalog. This is the folder where your House and Lot Bins are saved.
 * 2) Check the last number of the file. If, for example, the last file (sorted by name) is cx_00000095.package, then rename the Kim Family and its Sim files to cx_00000096.package and cx_Character_cx_00000096.package. Do the same thing to Kat Family and its Sim files with different digits, say 97.
 * 3) Copy the files to C:\Documents and Settings\otto\My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\LotCatalog.
 * 4) Now you can add Kim and Kat Families again in your Neighborhood.
