SimPE configured. If you go to the far right of your screen you will see two scroll bars. Scroll up in the outermost one, and you should see the actual Object Workshop options appear just above where your pic shows "TV and Computer". Choose "NEXT" from those options (after highlighting the object you want to clone, of course) and you will be taken to the next screen and see the options that HugeLunatic mentioned above that you can untick. Then click the Finish button and sit patiently for a minute or so while Object Workshop gathers all the resources into a single package. It will eventually give you a message that your object has been loaded and you'll see a bunch of stuff appear on the top half of your screen. Clicking on any of it will be confusing, though, because your bottom half of
SimPE is still in Object Workshop. Go to the very bottom of the
SimPE screen and click the "Plugin View" tab. Now you're in business, and can comfortably follow any of the fine tutorials or instructions here to extract the resources you want.
