Hi, i'm new this may be a dumb question but help?

Okay so, I bought university and have tons of EPs that I bought off of Origin, and the funny thing is all I can install off the $200 games I legally bought is the base game. Installed University from this site and everything worked perfectly.

But I also wanted to install generations, and it seems I did something wrong.. when I installed generations, i used the "crack" in the files to replace the "crack" from university in "Program Files(x86) > Origin Games > The Sims 3 > Game > Bin and now it's saying that ONLY generations is installed and university now is not

Is there an easy way to fix this? My game is already updated completely so I don't think I need to download the huge patch. I still have the .rar files and could delete them all and unzip them and re-do the entire process, Do I not use a crack after installing generations? How do I keep both EPs?

Hello,

Just to stick to the procedure, please do step 2: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t1171-must-read-how-to-install-the-sims-3-correctly

That should bring back your icons!
If it did, continue with step 3 and 4.

Good luck and please let us know the result!

Ps. Install everything you want first.

Okay - so I need to download all the EPs I want first, and then the manual patch, reapply it and then use the ultimate fix?

Hello,

That's correct!
Just note that you do not need to re-do the whole Fix, only the "# Crack" part, as described on that page.

Good luck! We're here if you need us.
