Expansion Packs and Stuffs Should it be in order for installation? Empty Expansion Packs and Stuffs Should it be in order for installation?

Post by Guest Tue 28 Jan 2014, 11:20

Hi Mods,

So here's my scenario, downloaded the base game and a few expansion packs ( World Adventures, Pets, Supernatural, University life, Seasons, Island Paradise and High End Loft Stuff )

Successfully installed the base game and was able to play with it for 3 days... So then I decided to add/install the expansion packs. I started with World Adventures, Pets, Supernatural, University Life and Seasons. All fine no errors and no cracking done so far.

And then I added High end loft stuff, no errors. But when I am installing Island Paradise that I came across with the error. Forgot the error message but it's like "system not updated" of some sort.. So I cancelled it.

Technically Island Paradise was not installed. What I did was downloaded the ultimate fix, followed instructions such as update to 1.67 and crack the base game.

Open Sims Launcher, works fine updated to 1.67. Seasons window is up.

Select Town is empty, No option to select anything at all all blank. Nothing is clickable as well.. Ends up freezing and in order for me to close it i have to end task it via task manager.

What went wrong with the process i did? was it a wrong installation in the first place? Do i need install it in any  specific order with the expansion and stuffs?

Hi there, there is no need to install them in an order but after updating to v1.67 did you excatly copied the files of crack folder to C:programfiles/electronic arts/sims3/game/bin if you did it in right way it should work and if you have any mods try removing them.And coming to island paradise problem can you please post a screen shot of it?

Thanks for your reply.. Unfortunately I already un-installed everything will start from scratch again..

However, correct me if i'm wrong >>>


1. Install the base game / Dont crack

2. download/install the manual patch

3. Install expansions that I like

4. Download and and Use Ultimate Fix

5. Update/Install to 1.67

6. Use Crack from Ultimate Fix to C:programfilesx64/electronic arts/sims3/game/bin

7. Close and relaunch Sims


If I missed out anything, please let me know.. and in case i'll do have errors again while installing expansions will post it here.


Thanks!

Hi there, C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin is the exact location if you cant find the electronic arts folder in program files(86) check program files.

Alrighty...

When you say "patch again", is it the manual patch again or the patch/update from the launcher?..

okies, just saw it in the ultimate fix video.. So technically thats good to know... I'll do this installation later on.. By the way, if i successfully installed this game ( which im keeping my fingers crossed ) Do I have to be online playing this or offline? And while online, if there are any updates/patch pops up, Do i have to download/update it?

Thanks Again!

Hi again, please do not update your game until we release our ultimate fix for it and you can play it only offline because it is a cracked version do not try to play online.

Oh My GOSH!! It finally worked!!!! Successfully installed The base game, world of adventures, high end loft stuff, Pets, Supernatural, Seasons, University, master suite and Island Paradise! 

My final question will be, if i will add another expansion lets say generations, ambitions etc.. Do I still need to crack it via ultimate fix?
