Official MediaFire alternative OUT NOW! (Link + Feedback)
First topic message reminder :
-You can now also report your problems with our Download Server quickly via: http://games4theworlddownloads.org/report-a-problem.html -
Hello everyone,
The moment you've all been waiting for: we've finally released our MediaFire alternative, in the form of a completely new website: www.games4theworlddownloads.org
As you might have noticed already, this website is still work-in-progess, meaning that a lot of pages and some download links are still missing. We decided to do a beta release, so you guys could give us feedback on how to improve it. We'll be adding the missing pages and download links over time, so be sure to check back daily.
In this topic we'll gather all your feedback and - if possible - implement the new feature(s) in the next website update. Please also let us know about the download speed and the page loading speed.
So please keep the feedback coming!
In order to make things easier, please do provide a link to the page and a screenshot of the problem, if possible.
Known problems/improvements:
- Overall layout is too wide for some computer screens (Let us know how it looks on your screen and include your resolution/screen size!) FIXED!
- Add a "Back to top" button FIXED! (Thank you for the image, Lady ElDi!)
- December 2011 page will be fixed soon FIXED!
- Host images on own server, instead of linking to other websites (E.g. ServImg) FIXED!
- Change menu style (And colour, if needed) FIXED!
- Change line height + font size FIXED!
- Banner broken on this page. FIXED!
- Some split files broken? See this post. (this set, for example) FIXED!
- Being more specific about file format, see this post. FIXED!
- HJ split guide requested. FIXED! (Got rid of all the split files)
- This set fails to install. FIXED!
- Adding a "limited edition stuff" category. FIXED!
- Making banners "fit to scale", if possible. See this post. FIXED!
- Some links are broken, see this post. FIXED! (Use a different browser, for example Google Chrome - See yellow warning on homepage)
- More broken links, see this post. FIXED!
- Line-height should be increased on some pages FIXED!
- Add "COMPLETE year" downloads, to download everything from a specific year at once (Will be added once the website is finished)
- Disable Mac elastic scrolling, see:
IF YOU HAVE ANY FEEDBACK, PLEASE COLLECT ALL YOUR FEEDBACK FIRST AND THEN POST EVERYTHING AT ONCE, instead of making a new post for every piece of feedback. Thank you!
Update:
We have abandoned the old "games4theworld.org" site, though as long as it is still online you can use it to grab some (store) items for The Sims 3. In the meantime, here is an alternative source for individual store items:

And here a torrent for the complete store collection:

store updates question
before loss of the old site i had updates completed til nov 2012, i was looking to catch up on the remaining updates, but cant seem to load december 2012 page completely. is this an unfinished page? are the remaining more recent updates also to follow? or are update pages just not being added in order if the updates im seeking havent been added yet, its no biggy. i can be patient, im just curious if its an error on my part. i have first tried using chrome, then tried using firefox with same result.
im very greatful for all that you do here. ive been out of work and / or very limited income if any for past 2 years and really appreciate being able to try things that i have missed due to lack of money without fear of what i may be getting along with my attempted download.
i've bought every sims 1 and sims 2 since the beginning and would be stuck at showtime and town life if it werent for your help.
nice to have a place to trust.
Much Thanks to everyone involved that make this site possible!

Re: Official MediaFire alternative OUT NOW! (Link + Feedback)
Hmm. I think a list of what is where would be kinda cool. It would make searching faster. I often forget when the sets I'm looking for came out and end up going through each page for it(especially because I forget what they're called as well, seeing the name on a list would jog my memory). It's not needed, of course, but it would be handy.

Re: Official MediaFire alternative OUT NOW! (Link + Feedback)
The site's searchfunction works rather well, but a list would hardly be helpful I'm afraid. There are 500 sims3packs, give or take a few.Ghostcaptain wrote:Hmm.

Don't know if I'm the only one, but download speeds are very slow, for everything. Max at 30 kb/s and I know my connection can do better. Any suggestions, or is this just the website? Thank you for everything though

".sims3packs" and ".package" files are two different things. ".Sims3packs" belong into My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Downloads. ".Package" files belong into My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Mods/Packages.
For a guide on installing ".packages", see "how to install .package files": http://www.games4theworlddownloads.org/guides.html
//EDIT
Next time, please do not post a question like this here. You should post this in one of the sections named "The Sims (3)". The question you have has not much to do with "feedback on the Mediafire-alternative".

It is never a loss to follow both instructions. Since you've got packages in your Mods/Packages folder (namely the store fix), it is suggested that you should follow both instructions.

I understand what you're trying to say, and I already have mods folder installed and packages in it.
The problem is that it appears this site holds only sims3pack files, and I've been downloading and installing only packages.
So before I downloaded anything from this site, I downloaded and wanted to update 'store fixes' but in it's guide it says
"These fixes assume you have all items installed the same way; either .package or .Sims3Pack."
As I'm using packages I have to update it for packages - which means I won't be able to use sims3pack items...? Which means no downloading from your site >.> I'm sorry if I messed anything up, I'm just getting confused and I'd really like to use store updates! Again thank you so much for your time and I apologize!
Cat - I wasn't sure if I can follow both instructions. You know, if they will interfere with one another. :newfag:

Hello,
You can use sims3packs and packages at the same time, and use the store fixes. Simply follow both sets of instructions, and it will work.

Instruction guide for store fix. wrote:1. Place "StoreFix_DecrapFixes.package", "StoreFix_Fixes.package" and "XMLs.package" in:1. Place "ccmerged.package", "StoreFix_DecrapFixes.package", "StoreFix_Fixes.package" and "XMLs.package" in: (My) Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages\.
(My) Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Overrides\.
They are not contradictory. One is for placing the store fix in Mods/Packages and the other is for placing the fix in Mods/Overrides. They are different folders. If you don't have any sims3packs installed, then you should follow the instructions for package files only.

Re: Official MediaFire alternative OUT NOW! (Link + Feedback)
hello guys, thanks for the great effort of building an alternative site for the downloads. I've had a bunch of good downloads but some have an error (this is an example from November 2012):
NOT FOUND
The requested URL /ts3/store-2012/files/november/EP8OriginSET.rar was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Stone's Throw Greenhouse Season's Update
Hi hi!~ I have been searching for a bit but sadly, have been unable to find this. A link was posted some time back to a Mediafire account but the link does not work. The new website doesn't appear to have this up yet; so I shall request it please be uploaded.

Re: Official MediaFire alternative OUT NOW! (Link + Feedback)
Oh yay!!! I just saw this now but I'm so happy you guys finally got it back up! I was like a lost bunny searching other sources for store content these past months. Nothing beats G4TW though.
Whoop whoop!

Hey guys !!!
Kabiru here. First I am glad for the store downloads to be back. Four agonizing months to finaly see thr light of peace.
I have my feedback. Here it is: most download links leads to a long page of codes and sadly no browsers in the whole world I ever tried to make them work with have ever made a change at all. Firefox? nope. Chrome? nope. Dolphin? nope. Flamingan Africa Browser? nope. Meteor Asia Browser? nope. and so much more... it is no use for now. So I have to wait until the end of your holidays to fix these links. cause I will never be able to play with these store bonuses. My backup from last marchhave been wiped out by some prank Kom played on me and my husband when we were cooking a meal he used to wince at... sigh...
please can you fix it when you are back?
Thanks!
regards. kabiru.

I can download them via Chrome and Internet Explorer (I have tested at least 7 links to confirm). I am pretty sure it's the problem of your pc... Can you clear the browsing history and try downloading them via Chrome?

Re: Official MediaFire alternative OUT NOW! (Link + Feedback)
hey thanks for replying.
sadly even by clearing history. or downloads history. changing settings. I did everything mate. nothing works. whether with a pc browser or with my husband's smartphone browser. to test whether it was my pc or my husband' s smartphone I asked to test with my little brothers and sisters pc apiece. my father's snartphone and pc. my mother's martphone and pc but nothing simply do the trick.
to be very sure as well I have uninstalled the browsers, reinstalled them. clearing the histories, he caches, the cookies of every machines. but to no avail.
I just cannot do anything. it is disappointing. my sons and me love the sims 3 and with the store stuff it was even more enjoyable since it made the whole game extremely realistic and full of real life topics. we are now deprived of it and somehow the fun is less enjoyable. Do not get me wrong. i am not there to complain or criticise at all. your website is the best one ever when it comes to the whole of the sims 3 world and I am extremely grateful of your generousity. ea games being greedy, you are the opposite. that makes you heroes for people having money limitations. our family is poor too. and you helped us out for so long.
we are really looking forward for a way to fix the links. but If you cannot, there may be still some ways for us to get the store stuff. i am sure we can. why not just try to send them to me by email links? or attached stuff? perhaps there are even more ways to settle that.
i trust you guys. i just need your help. i am not afraid of desperation. let us just find a way.
thanks in advance.
