Help: Incomplete Menu Screen and Ultimate Fix issue. [SOLVED]

Suspended In Dusk wrote:Hello,
I received a new laptop and because of the situation handed to me, was unable to download through the incredibly slow Origin account i have. I was able to download the Base game but the rest of the expansions ( All except katy perry and any after University Life) were downloaded from this site. I had no issues installing the majority of expansions except for World Adventures and Outdoor Living mostly due to my inexperience with the registry.
So instead of rambling on, here are my main issues:
1) My game ran perfectly fine under update 1.50 and when i tried updating to the newest one my game crash. Even with the Ultimate Fix and Nrass Mods involved. Is there a possibility that older versions of the fix can be posted for those who dont want to update their games?
2) If the above is impossible, is there a way to fix the invisible town and main screen issue that seems to occur even after i used to version 1.67 Ultimate Fix?
.....this is a bit embarrassing considering i was once a helper on the site but can someone help me. lol    

Just out of interest (if you don't mind answering this): when were you a Helper on here ?   I guess that was probably way before I came on here (in late 2012) ?

I will try to redo the steps again after i install the last two expansions i mentioned that puzzled me lol

I was a helper on this site about a year or so ago. My original name was Stabitha666. Admin rightfully took away the accounts "power" because i was away for so long. I was in the midst of moving from one part of the country to another and didnt have internet for a long while. The last time i was on this site was when we were all dealing with the lost of the Mediafire account and coming up with the solution that turned into the New downloading site that is up.

Regarding using a later version, I wish i could upgrade to the newer patch and get the newer games but my game crashes with the new update and games. Sucks but im grateful nonetheless.
The thing is I had a 1.5 TB external harddrive with everything on it....and it died on me. I had everything i needed on it...So hence my dilemma.

Well, let me shoot over to Admin's inbox and send over a message. Thanks once again. If i remember my original accounts password, i may just delete this one..who knows.

As for the crashing, I'll get back to you about that too, but yes, try re-applying the latest Ultimate fix, correctly.   

Ah yes, I've seen some of your older posts - you were Helper along with the likes of t2sink and TCPCohen; from that "bunch" though, invalidusername and cezra are still here, but all others aren't.   

Keep me updated !

And what do you mean that "bunch"?! lol
InvalidUserName was my friend..well still is technically.
The only reason why i disappeared is because i moved from one side of my country to the next and didnt have country and my laptop was stolen.

I would love to help again but probably wouldnt be of much help since im having issues of my own with the game LMAO

Noted: Originally, Half of my games were from origin including the base game and half from here. While in this case, only the Base game is from Origin. I couldnt stand waiting for the downloading........-.-

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be offensive.   But I was trying to say that you all were a "great bunch", back then.  

Welcome back to the forum of course, whether or not you'll re-apply as a (Sims) Helper on here !   

Suspended In Dusk wrote:You werent being offensive. I was kidding.
And thanks for the compliment.

I know i definitely did the last step because it wouldnt have opened up the game if i didnt crack it. Blargh...
Well Admin just replied to me. So lets pray this works out. =^^=
And thanks for the warm welcome.
Ill try to remember my original password.

Theoretically, it is possible to run a game/application with an outdated .exe crack, but in most cases you won't "get too far", of course.   That said, I'm sorry to hear about your persistent issue, but again: there aren't really any other explanations left for this phenomenon. I assume you are also using at least one of the following expansions ?

You need to have at least one of these installed too, along with the base game, in order for the Ultimate fix to work. Also, make sure to completely turn off any anti-virus/anti-malware software, since they can delete crack files, too. ( )

That's it for now !

I hope this helps someone.

OK, as you wish.   

Until then: have fun !   The topic is closed now.
