The Sims 3: Island Paradise CRC Installation Error. [SOLVED]

August 14, 2013

Hello Games4TheWorld,

I Created this account to ask if you know how to fix the following.

I've downloaded The Sims 3: Island Paradise from Games4TheWorld but unfortunately, it was the one with no Updates Folder inside so I had to download the update. (All my Sims 3 Games are From Games4TheWorld)

After downloading the update, I simply installed the update and was finished.
I opened the installer of the Island Paradise Expansion Pack and Simply followed the instructions, after doing so, I encountered a CRC Error saying that

"CRC Error: The file C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 Island Paradise\Caches\IslaParadiso.objectCache doesn't match the file in the setup's .cab file. The medium from which you are running the setup may be corrupted; contact your software vendor."

Having experienced this before in past downloads of the Sims (Different Source, Not from Games4TheWorld), I simply clicked retry.
It still gave me the same error. I tried clicking it again several times but no avail so I decided to click Ignore.
It moved forward but then another CRC Error Occured saying 

"CRC Error: The file C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 Island Paradise\Game Data\CasThumbnails.package doesn't match the file in the setup's .cab file. The medium from which you are running the setup may be corrupted; contact your software vendor."

Again, I pressed the retry several times, but still gave me an error so I just pressed Ignore.
It loaded for a little while and another CRC Error.

"CRC Error: The file C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 Island Paradise\Thumbnails\Shared\Packages\FullBuild_p19.package doesn't match the file in the setup's .cab file. The medium from which you are running the setup may be corrupted; contact your software vendor."

Obviously, retried it and still nothing so I ignored it again.
Again, a CRC Error:

"CRC Error: The file C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 Island Paradise\Thumbnails\Shared\NonPackaged\Worlds\IslaParadiso.world doesn't match the file in the setup's .cab file. The medium from which you are running the setup may be corrupted; contact your software vendor."

The Setup Finished and I applied the crack manually being aware of how it works.

I opened the game directly (TS3W.exe) and it opened and loaded with no problem, when I clicked to create a new game in Isla Paradiso, it said that it was not working properly so I noted that fact.

I opened a new save and Created a Household. All the CAS Items were in there and were working but I noticed that when I selected all Island Paradise Clothes and made my Sim fat, the body shape stayed thin and slim.

Those are the errors that I've faced.
For now, I am currently re-downloading the file thinking the download might be corrupted but our internet connection is slow.

I Apologize if this is in the Wrong Section.
