Should I crack a pirated expansion pack? Empty Should I crack a pirated expansion pack?

I own the base game and all the Expansion Packs and Stuff Packs are Pirated. I can log in fine in the launcher but in-game it says Invalid Username/Password!

//EDIT

I own the base game and I installed pirated EPs. Should I crack my game or just apply the Ultimate fix?

Hello,

Do NOT use the cracks that are included in the games that you downloaded. ONLY use the files from the "Ultimate fix": https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t752-the-sims-3-ultimate-fix-should-fix-most-of-your-problems

You should read the instructions of the Ultimate fix carefully; then everything should be fine.

OK, how did you update your game ? If you updated the game with the launcher, then use ALL FILES from the "Ultimate fix" (only from that, ignore the cracks in the expansions). If you used the "manual patch" it is enough when you use the two files that are inside the #crack folder of the Ultimate fix (TS3W.exe + TSLHost.dll).

Do you have this "Origin" thing installed ? If yes, then the #crack (from the Ultimate fix) goes into "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 3\Game\Bin".

But why do you need to "log-in" into your game ? Do you want to buy things from the in-game store ? Or do you want to use this "SimPort"-thing ? It's possible that the servers for the online features don't work sometimes (= you have to try later again). But I suggest you turn off that in-game store (in the options menu). The "Games4TheWorld" download account will re-open soon, which means you can download the store items from here without paying.

I've never used this SimPort feature myself - maybe another Helper can tell you more about it.

Hello,


I know if you have 1 registered game, you can use online futures. 
But if you have none of it, you cannot use it.


I've also never used Simport. Very Happy 


PS. I am Filipino too...
