After I Installed Your "Into The Future" [SOLVED]

ibabyunicorn wrote:I Did Everything Your website Told Me To, From Downloading the folder, uTorrenting it, to installing it to the game. I pressed play, loaded perfectly, the last expansion I had was University, so it would use that loading screen, but this time it used Into The Future, I know that is normal! Good Sign! It was done loading. I had mods, The mod script thing didn't pop up, my saves were gone, my neighborhoods were gone. ALLL OF THEM, even spring field, the store recommending didn't even come up, when I clicked on the options button the selections were there but there was no words and when I clicked on one it wouldn't show up. Please Tell Me there is a way to keep into the future, from your website, and fix this.

"The Sims 3 has stopped working" error

letliveperiod wrote:I had already purchased the base game on origin then downloaded pets and university life on here. so I copied and pasted the crack into the origin games folder instead of the EA and when I opened the game in origin at first it said no disc but I fixed that. Now it will start to load the game and then a screen pops up that says "the sims 3 has stopped working" then it closes the game. please help.

Now have another  look at this other topic here and re-do all steps: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t857-the-sims-3-crashes-freezes-to-desktop-fix-updated-on-7-01-2014

If your Windows is a 64-bit version AND if your computer has 4 GB of RAM or more, then focus on step #3 in particular. Download the "4 GB patch" from here.


After downloading, double-click on that 4 GB patch and in the next prompt, choose the TS3W.exe in your base game location. Usually, that's C:\Program files(x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin. Wait for the message "executable successfully patched" and close the 4 GB patch.

Note that this method will not work if your Windows is a 32-bit version and/or if your computer has fewer  than 4 GB of RAM. After doing that, go on with the rest of the steps. These instructions should be pretty self-explanatory.

Now go to My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 and delete all contents inside the Currentgame.sims3 folder. Also, in My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3, delete the following stuff:


-CASPartCache.package
-compositorCache.package
-scriptCache.package
-simCompositorCache.package
-socialCache.package
-plus the contents of the folders "WorldCaches" & "Thumbnails"


Re-start the game then and see if anything improved. You may even turn off your anti-virus program completely before playing The Sims 3. Also, have you also heard about the tool "GameBooster", which can help you improve your system's performance ?   For a guide, see this here:

'The license server is down' and other problems

AmeliaUnicorn wrote:Hello . First of all: thank you for the effort you put in providing us with games and helping with problems.

Now onto my issues. A few days ago I downloaded your torrent - the one with The Sims 3 with the complete expansion pack collection. I started installation with the base game, as instructed. I followed the rules precisely but the game didn't work. I later read on the forum that this problem can be caused by only having base game installed so I tried to install an expansion pack (Ambitions). I followed the instructions again but it did not work. I gave up and uninstalled the whole thing. But since TS3 is my favourite game ever, I decided to try to install it again today. I followed the instructions in the video and was very careful but my game still doesn't work. I'm pretty sure I put all the cracks in correct folder. I also downloaded and applied the fix but it still doesn't work. 

The launcher looks normal but when I press the buttom for starting the game, I get message to insert the code. I do that but it keeps popping up and then, after some time, I get this message; 'the license server is down. please wait a few minutes and try again.' 

I checked this awesome forum for solutions and tried a bunch of things but nothing seems to work. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong (I'm quite a noob in computer stuff). 

My computer specs meet the game requirements so that's not the problem.

I'm very sorry if I sound like a total noob and I know these questions have been asked many times before, but I'm really kinda desperate here.

Thanks for the help and have a nice day

Hello and welcome to the forum,


https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t1171-must-read-how-to-install-the-sims-3-correctly


Please read this guide here, and (re-) do the steps from {#}2{/#} to {#}5{/#}. That should explain everything you need. 

As for the "script" error, you will only get that when you use this "launcher", but it doesn't happen all the time. You can also start the game "directly" without the launcher, by making a shortcut to the desktop from the TS3W.exe file, in your base game location (usually C:\Program files(x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin). Good luck for now !

Sims 3 Supernatural Help needed

darthlink9 wrote:HI everyone, I'm having some trouble here getting Supernatural to work. I have read the installation guide THOROUGHLY and downloaded the ultimate fix and patch, followed all the instructions, but when I go to play either the base game, or supernatural, I get the following error: "unable to start game. service initialization failed (0x0175dcbb). " I just can't seem to figure out what in the world is going on with this. am I missing a file or something? I'm pulling my hair out trying to get this to work. if anyone, anyone at all could tell me what the heck I'm doing wrong, or give me any kind of help at all, it would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Please do it thoroughly.   I'm not sure what you did, but if you really do everything correctly, then the error shouldn't happen. Also, see this video here please and check the solution:

Sims 3 Pets problem?

Shiaena wrote:Hi, I'm pretty new here. I have a legit Sims 3 in Origin, as well as some stuff packs (but they're not downloaded). Anyway, I really wanna try Pets, and maybe in the future some other expansion packs. However, I've been having quite a few issues. First, I downloaded the fixed version of Pets and I transferred the crack files to my sims folder, all that good stuff. It ran, but when it opened, there was no text, no save file, and nothing I clicked worked. Well, I followed the instructions and installed the Ultimate fix, as well as the manual fix, and did them both. With the Ultimate fix, I just transferred the files in the "All expansion packs after and including Generations" into my C: > Program Files (x86) > Origin Games > The Sims 3 > Game > Bin folder. Now, I'm experiencing ANOTHER problem. When I try to run the Sims via my Origin, as always, the launcher pops up. When I hit the play button, a pop-up appears. It says:
"Disc Authentication Failure
No game disc found! Please insert The Sims 3 Pets game disc before proceeding."
Pressing Retry just makes it re-pop up, pressing cancel makes another pop up saying:
"Error
The process could not be started"

Is there any way to fix this?

Sims 3 "There was an error during startup. Please see the Log for more details."

jssxjqu wrote:Originally had legal version of Sims 3 and attempted to add specific expansions, was running into problems, uninstalled everything and reinstalled pack of Sims 3 and all expansions, installed most (not all) expansions. Followed all the directions, including getting the update and switching out the .exe & .dll files into the BASE game. Looked into the youtube video regarding the registry and deleting folders that shouldn't be there: all the folders there are the ones that should be there. My game is saved in C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts as per usual, all the expansions are also saved there. Not sure what to do...attempted to find log to see if I could figure out the error from that and I have no idea where the log is.

Sim3 Pets Play Button doesn't work.

You probably did not apply the Ultimate fix correctly, but let's see.   For now, please repeat the steps from #2 to #5 here:

Part time job problem. [SOLVED]

karinadolores wrote:Okay, thanks! I'll try that :] I'll come back to update if it's working or not!

//EDIT

It didn't work. I think I might just start the whole thing from scratch again. I've had this problem for a few days now and I've tried anything I could think of except moving her into a new version of the town and nothing worked. It's been really frustrating. I don't want to move her into a new version of the time as I don't want to lose her progress, so starting over might be the best thing. That way I can also go back and do things a little bit differently as well. Hopefully I won't run into the same problem again. 

Thanks for the help though!

See if that improved anything in your game. If not, I would honestly give up on it.   One thing you should remember for the future though: NEVER un-install the game(s), just because of minor glitches like that. I don't know why so many people do this, but un-installing and re-installing only very rarely fixes issues. And Windows OS is known for being "picky" on things like that...meaning that if you don't (un-)install properly, you will get even bigger problems.

I downloaded this last time and I am very confused because, When I first downloaded it, it has something error. 


  

Hello again,


You MUST have an expansion installed, in order for the Ultimate fix to work. You cannot have "only" the base game. So please, download one (or more) expansion(s).

Then, repeat the steps from {#}2{/#} to {#}5{/#} here:

That is really what you need to pay attention to. Everything you need to know is in there, so read it carefully. Good luck !

Not sure what to do. [SOLVED]

Crymson Rayne wrote:Thank you  I now have the main game installed. I have opened it to make sure it is working but it is saying... You are playing a non-final, unauthorized copy of the sims 3.
Is there anything else I have to do or can I just go ahead and install the expansions?
Also is there a specific order in which I need to install the expansions or is it ok to just go down the list?

Edit
I just read someone else had the same problem with the non-final message and the reply stated it was still fine to play the game. However it is asking me to confirm the code but wont accept the code I used. What should I do?

You MUST apply the latest manual patch (step 2) at first. And then you install at least one of the expansions. You may even install all of tehm if your computer is strong enough and if you have enough filespace.   

The towns selection is not available! Can't select any town to begin playing...

Insert Island Paradise Disk Error - Origin version of Sims 3, Late Night, and high end loft stuff bundle!

amylou29 wrote:Hi there, I recently purchased the Sims 3, Late night and high end loft stuff bundle on Origin. I then installed all expansions from G4TW up to island paradise. I followed all of the install instructions, and have previously installed the base game and all expansions and stuff packs from G4TW on my old laptop with no problems that I wasn't able to fix.  

I also copied and pasted the ultimate fix crack into the ProgramFiles(x86)/OriginGames/TheSims3/Bin folder. 

However, when I go to start my game using the Island Paradise application origin immediately opens making me choose my original digital copy of the Sims 3 to start, but when I try to start using it I get the "Insert Island Paradise CD" error. 

I have also tried running the application as administrator, starting the game with the crack I copied into the Sims 3 bin folder, and I also tried uninstalling Origin to hopefully bypass it but no luck. So far I have found no working way of bypassing Origin.

Should I just refund the origin games I bought and reinstall the whole collection from G4TW, or is there any other work around....any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Question on steps;
I did not do the 4GB patch, on what step should it be applied? After #2?

Do I need to un-install all the exp and stuff packs down to base game?(trying to avoid doing that if possible ><) 

 Or is it ok to apply the 1.67 manual patch,--> then ultimate fix,--> then 4gb patch--> then the crack?

then i pass the laptop to my sis to try,
this is her experience

"I was designing my sim. I got to design the hair and face and after clicking the clothing and personality buttons, I thought its ok but when I was AFKing for less than 5 mins, I came back and click clothing option and suddenly, it crash. Again."

what else to do ?

Type it exactly that way; and then hit enter again. You should get a "success" message. If you do, please re-boot the computer. And then re-start the game. See if anything improved. Good luck and let me know your result !   This will completely de-activate the (anyway useless) "DEP".

I mistyped it at first (   ), but it's correct on the second try.

So you did manage now to change the settings in your computer, so that The Sims 3 uses your stronger NVIDIA card ? That would be very important !

Next, have a look at my post here, and do all the suggestions:
https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t17208-sims-3-has-stopped-working#118442


This involves adding TS3 to the "DEP exceptions", applying the 4GB patch, and then clearing the caches too.

Good luck for now, and let us know about your progress.

You are getting thios "invalid code thing" because you either did not install an expansion or you didn't apply the Ultimate fix correctly. But let's see.

Please try AGAIN downloading the manual patch, and apply it by double-clicking. Try BOTH links, and if it doesn't work, try another internet browser, or try again later:
