Bought the Sims 3 base game and torrent-ed Late Night

Hi guys! I'm just wondering if it's possible for some players (like me!) to download other Sims 3 expansion backs from torrents and then installing it while using the Sims 3 base game that we bought? Because a few months ago I tried to install Late Night (from torrent) and the installation went smoothly. It's just that when I was about to play it, a window popped up saying that the Late Night expansion that I installed wasn't, you know, bought. Ever since then I've been wary to download the other Sims 3 expansion packs because I think, for some reason, the base game that I bought (updated regularly with the patches) detects that it's not legally obtained.

Will I be able to install and play the Sims 3 expansion packs that are available in the Games4theworld torrent, though? Cos i would really like to experience Late Night and Generations.

I bought the Sims 3 base game as well as University Life.

Hello,

Please install at least one of the following expansions along with the base game (either torrented or legal):
Movie Stuff, Island Paradise, University Life, 70s, 80s, & 90s Stuff, Seasons, Supernatural, Diesel Stuff, Katy Perry Sweet Treats, Showtime, Master Suite Stuff, Pets, Town Life Stuff, Generations

Afterwards, download and apply the manual patch here: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t1870-can-t-update-the-sims-3-to-v133-fix-manual-patch.

After patching, download the Ultimate Fix here and apply it:

If the base game was bought from store, simply drag and drop the content of the folder #crack from the Ultimate Fix to C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin. Replace the files when necessary.

If the base game was downloaded and installed via Origin, simply drag and drop the content of the folder #crack from the Ultimate Fix to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 3\Game\Bin. Replace the files when necessary.

If you have done the above correctly, there should be no error message.
