University Life install Step-by-step (just this expansion pack). [SOLVED]
by Guest Sat 04 May 2013, 15:06
Hi
I haven't done much in the way of downloading/installing Sims related content for a while, by recently I have rekindled my love for the game and decided to install University Life to my existing Sims 3 game (with expansion packs/Stuff packs)
My question is:
Ont he homepage of this website, there is a link to a guide that shows you how to install the game and any expansions from scratch. However, I do not want to install from scratch but want to add University Life to what I currently have.
Could I please have a Step-by-step guide or a link to an existing Step-by-step guide of how to install University Life onto my computer without having to uninstall/reinstall anything.
Thanks a million.

Try downloading the torrent, installing the game, then apply the Ultimate Fix. This should make it work.
What I'm not sure about though, if some of your games were bought (is it the case?) then I don't know if you need to apply the Ultmitate Fix to those games too...

I've downloaded the torrent and extracted all files
Only the base game is bought
Where can I find the ultimate fix and would you be able to bullet point the steps for me (I'm a bit weird like that. I find it easier to understand)
Thanks

//EDIT:
The current Expansions Packs/Stuff Packs I ahev are as follows:
High End Loft Stuff
Fast Land Stuff
Late Night
Outdoor Living Stuff
Generations
Town Life Stuff
Pets

Hello there,
Update your game with the so-called "manual patch" (see Shamrock's link above for downloading it). Then apply the so-called "Ultimate fix" (again in the link above).
Read the installation instructions of the Ultimate fix very carefully!
After that you should be fine
start the game and enjoy it.

Do I not update to 1.50 using the Sims 3 Launcher?
I have to do it using the Manual Patch?

Nope, if your game updates to 1.50 on its own, that's just fine!

Alright, the manual patch is normally used when your launcher can't update the game...OK, I would then try updating with the launcher and then using the Ultimate fix. IF you encounter problems when starting/playing the game, then download the manual patch, apply it, and then re-apply the Ultimate fix again!

Do I install University Life before the update?
Or after the update and before the Ultimate Fix
Or after both the update and Ultimate Fix?

Then apply the ultimate fix only. Again: if you start the game afterwards and you realise that you are having problems with starting/playing the game, then...
1) RE-apply the manual patch
2) Then RE-apply the Ultimate fix
And then it should work

Not everything from the Fix though, just do step 2 to 4: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t1171-must-read-how-to-install-the-sims-3-correctly (So ONLY use the "# Crack" folder from the Fix, as described on that page)
