Need help in the order of installing Expansions. [SOLVED]

Hi!

The answer is a clear NO!
Is not necessary to install EP in order, you can install Supernatural and then Late Nigh with any single problem!

In fact, I don't think you would need to upgrade to Patch 1.48!
Because Supernatural is newer than Late Night and Showtime.
In case you wanna install an EP newer than SN, like Seasons, then you must have to upgrade.

Here's good news:
The only thing you have to do is to replace the cracks with the original files (in case you use cracks, in my case I just use mini-images), then install both expansion, and use the Supernatural crack again! You dont need to crack the older EPs once you have a newer one.

Hope this helped u

Actually, you don't have to do anything special with replacing cracks or anything. Go ahead and install all the expansions you want. Then, patch up to the most recent patch (or just to your latest expansion, if that's how you'd like to do it) and use the appropriate crack, be that from the fix, or from the expansion's download.

Don't update to 1.5 yet, the fix is still being updated for it.

For installing expansions, just install all of the ones you want. Then use one crack, at the very end, from the fix.

2GB should be fine, but it's not going to be superb, and be able to be played with high graphics and large towns. You may have to choose between some of the expansions for others, for better performance.

You can stay at any patch level you want, unless you want to install a new expansion/stuff pack, or even some of the store content.

And that is correct. The Ultimate Fix's current version is for 1.48 though, so when it's updated, and you update, just make sure to redownload it.

Hello,

Sorry for the late reply!
Are you on Mac OS? (If yes, then we'll have to move this topic to the "Mac" section)

Ah, interesting. So that's why there's no 1.50 Mac manual patch link available yet. It took them quite a while to "Test" though...

Hello,

Yes, you should only need the "# Crack" from the latest version of the Fix. More information here: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t7248-how-to-install-sims-3-with-or-without-ep-s-on-mac-dmg-creating

I wish you the best of luck! (I moved your topic to the right section already)

Ps. Those "Uncracked"/original files are already included in all those folders that come with the Fix!

Okay thanks for that. I was wondering why the installer app wouldn't do anything till I read that I had to make a .dmg of the files first. I'm currently doing that now so I'll wait until it finishes.

One more thing, do I still have to crack my game since I have the game disc for Supernatural? I've just read from a few sites that the launcher will ask for the latest released game disc, and not the latest install.
So if that's the case, ( Supernatural being the recent release, and Late Night being the recent install ) if my game asks for the SN disc, then I don't really have to crack my game anymore, right?

Thank you for your patience and assistance.

Hi! I just wanted to let you guys know that I installed Late Night successfully.

I just followed the guide in making a .dmg file and using only
Stuffit Expander and it installed without a hitch. I didn't have to
crack it as I have the SN disc anyway. It gave me a "Disc Authorization
failure" twice but it worked on the 3rd try. So once again, thank you
for all your efforts and support! I am one happy simmer again.

Hello there,

You're welcome! Glad to hear it's all working now and you're a happy simmer once again.
Thank you, Invalidusername!

Enjoy the game and do not hesitate to contact us again if you need more help!
