I'm getting really impatient though, because I somehow thought that uninstalling all my sims 3 games and deleting all the files was a good idea, when a stable crack hasn't even been released.
But I guess I'll wait a little longer... I suppose there are other things in this world to do than play video games.

Yeah, I also uninstalled everything TS3 related a month ago but I don't regret it. I want something new despite it not offering toddlers swimming in pools.

Because Origin surely needs internet connection and it seems you can't have and play the game without being logged in Origin. At least I can't understand why when  it's not an online game it needs internet activation. What if you buy the CD, would you still have to use Origin? Sorry if there are obvious answers for my questions but when I played The Sims 3 I had Origin and I didn't really need it for anything.

are u on somthing u even played it if u played the sims 3 you would se the sims 4 as alot more content ya no pools but we know there come in 1 of the 50 eps they got planed game play is smooter and the graphics are just fine what u running it on ultra low because your carped out computer can not handle it.... we know and a lot of people know there reviews from people who have not played the game a just hate sims and half of then we b4 the game come out

Honey i am not sims hater and i played both sims 2 and sims 3 with all of expasions packs and as sims player i feel  they do not made it in best way
and yes they may  add removed features in next exp but why you should pay for next exp to have some thing that you can already have it.and yes sims 4 is smoother but the reason is that they put nothing in game.Ok! they add 7 walking style but that's useless when you can not walk in open world.the ability of designing object and clothes and hairs has been removed.the sims 3 was really more close to reality,it had a lots of way to boost your creativity.i am sad beacause if they used this great sims of sims 4 with sims 3 abilities it will be more greater game and and more fun.i bought sims 4 and i believed that's it was a big mistake!!!! and yes i hope they add the lost features in next exp but i am not going to buy it i will pirate it because i have already paid for that enough.

After playing with the new crack for a few hours it has crashed more than the other two combined! I made a new game and everything so I don't know what is going on, when I used the v2 crack I was able to travel anywhere with no crashes or issues but with this I can't do anything. I don't know if it's just me or if other people are having this issue?

The game isn't even that bad....it really isn't! I get it they did remove some features from the game but they also fixed a lot of things as well!

The game sucks to me, the only thing I enjoyed was CAS but even that seems too difficult because for whatever reason my Sims never come out looking like those I find in the gallery. Like mine always look like squinting cartoons

Hello kidrock2k12,


Would you please mind your tone when posting on here ? I highlighted the relevant passages in my quote. There's no need for any hate or argument. You love the base game of Sims 4 ? Fine - no problem. But please respect the opinions of other people then too, who might not like the game.

And by the way: you do NOT have to do anything specific, to be "eligible" for an opinion on that. Even if there was an indication that NimaMini didn't play the game, (s)he would still be allowed to voice her/his opinion or impression. What YOU make of NimaMini's opinion, is solely your issue. Please respect the opinions of other people.

To use a more radical analogy...I've never been "tasered" myself. Does that mean I am not allowed to say that "electric shocks are probably uncomfortable"...? I don't think so. 


And please, if you want to quote several posts, click on the "multi-quote" button of each post you want to quote, and then click on "post reply" at the bottom.

I have a noobish question: if skidrow, 3dm, fairlight and so on don't have a website, and all those who are on the web are run by people just pretending to be them, how do they release their cracks? How do they let people know that a new crack is available?

AnneRiley wrote:Because prosecute G4TW (some random people on the internet) and you'll have 10 other sites taking their place the next day. Prosecute skidrow (the actual cause of the problem) and you got one less warez group out there. 
I believe someone in the forum said that the these groups only do it because they like the competition/challenge. They don't seem to support pirating, their work just "happens to leak online" Always.

auti wrote:Sims 4 isn't that bad. When Sims 3 came out people were complaining that it was garbage and etc. Now people love the game. A few more Eps and people will be wondering why they even complained in the first place.

And if you don't like Sims 4, that's cool, no one's forcing you to play, but that doesn't mean you should stick your opinions in other peoples face and get mad when they disagree.

On another note, I have the v3 for the 3DM crack and its still crashing? I even started a new game as people have suggested. Any advice?

I have been doing everything that everyone has been saying to do like making it compatible with the service pack and running as administrator which all worked up until the version 3 crack. I just switched back to the version 2 one since I haven't been having issues with that one.

Well, I promised myself I wouldn't pay for TS4 and I guess I kept to that promise!

0. temporarily disable your antivirus


1. copy the folders from the update folder to your sims 4 main directory, confirm overwriting any files in those folders.


2. copy any folders from the crack folder to your sims 4 main directory, confirm overwriting any files in those folders.


3. goto sims 4/game/bin and delete the file The.Sims.4.Launcher.par


4. rename the newly placed TS4.par file to The.Sims.4.Launcher.par


5. right click on The.Sims.4.Launcher.exe and select properties then compatability. check run as administrator. also select compatability mode for windows XP Service Pack 3. Click apply, then close properties.


6. right click on TS4.exe and select properties then compatability. check run as administrator. also select compatability mode for windows XP Service Pack 3. Click apply, then close properties.


7. open Origin then goto application settings. uncheck the 3 boxes in the updates section. uncheck the one box in cloud storage as well as the one box in beta participation.


8. next while still in application settings goto Origin in game, Uncheck enable Origin in game. close Origin window.


9. start game, [alt+Tab] back to desktop, restart your antivirus, [alt+tab] back to game.


10. have fun! 


my game appears to run better, and these are things i have tried, hopefully it will work for you too.

And why the heck does the crack scream it's actually a trojan? I'd be alright with a false positive if it was benign malware, but a trojan is a bigger deal. Can anyone confirm in any way that it's not really a trojan? (and I'm sorry but avast is not a trustworthy antivirus software)

If you don't like the opinions of other people, then don't read them. 

I'm not going to argue any further with you, hence I'll repeat what I said before: I kindly ask you to - please - refrain from personal insults. From what I've seen, the other user you were "talking" to did NOT insult you personally. So strictly speaking you are not "doing the same as the other person".


I don't want to have to issue a warning. 


//EDIT

And besides: even if she DID insult you too, do you think it's good to swear back ?

When I had a look at the files, it's no surprise its taking some time. Its a new game, its buggy its new. EA have spent more time than they should on its origin embedding and anti-piracy features.
The crack will be a good few weeks just because EA's game is still getting patched and fixed. Also it takes time to bypass origin and because of its all over the files, you'll suffer some crashes. However with a stable game comes a stable crack.
I would recommend a good month for EA to sort out Sims 4 before any dream of a crack that works.
