Thing is, I don't understand the "instructions" to fix it at all.

The annoying part of this is that I have never had this problem before....but can't remember exactly what I did "right" back then!
When you save as, you have to type a slightly different file name (like MyHouse-clean.sims2pack). If you try to "save over" your existing file, you end up with an empty file.

P.S. What exactly do you do when installing Lots via Clean Installer? Do you go with the "default" options or what?
I just uncheck anything I think is wonky (or an object), then let Clean Installer stuff the house and occupants in the Teleport folder, which is its heart's desire anyhow.

For houses with objects, I then swap the checks around so that only the objects (if any) are checked, and select ... for the folder so I can put them in a subfolder of Downloads.
