==Overview==
+
  
Use of Decrapify and S3RC have been reported as a potential fix/work around for Sim3Pack files which are "corrupt" and will not install via the Launcher.

EXPERIMENTAL "DECRAPIFY" OPTION!
+
Invoke with "s3rc -fD" (fixonly, decrapify) OR "decrapify" (drag/drop FOR TARDS). <br>Should fix all busted s3packs that don't install correctly in the launcher, like those old TSR ones.
+
Caveats:
+
# Permanently and irreversibly alters the target package/s3pack. Due to the type of damage involved, the game will see the decrapified object <br>as a seperate object from a non-decrapified object. Any saved game that used these objects or skins will be broken as a result, but...
+
# If you decrapify objects, you must decrapify all of your SAVED GAMES (.nhd & .packages in your .sims3), PRESETS (userPresets.package), and LIBRARY.
+
# DECRAPIFIED saved or exported items containing CRAPIFIED content will malfunction in a non-decrapified install.
+
# THIS PROCEDURE IS EXPERIMENTAL!
+
# decrapify exe requires s3rc exe to be accessible on path.
+
 
+
THEREFORE:
+
Do not share decrapified packages, only share original unmodified packages.
+
"decrapify" not available for Linux, <br>because Linux users are not stupid enough to need it and can just use -fD by hand.
+
 
+
==Note from JFade==

+
Below is Info from [http://forum.jfade.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=473 The Compressorizer Redux! - NEW VERSION 1.0 (3/9/2010)]

+
A NOTE ABOUT DECRAPIFYING:
+
The use of the decrapify option shouldn't need to be used frequently, and in fact should rarely need to be used at all. <br>It can be helpful with content that doesn't install (such as old legacy Sims3Packs made with early versions of custom content tools) or doesn't show up in the <br>game anymore. In my own experience, after I patched, all of my CC, including EA made content such as Riverview, disappeared from my game, and my <br>saved games that were dependent upon Riverview disappeared as well. Decrapifying fixed things for me.
+
 
+
You should be aware that if you decrapify any content that is ALREADY installed (IE the .dbc files), you will then need to decrapify all of your saved game files.
+
 
+
Decrapifying is an experimental option that Pescado made to address some of these problems. As such you should treat it with care and make proper backups.
