I don't want to have to download The get to work expansion pack and The Get together expansion pack to get City living, so is there anyway I could JUST get the ultimate fix stuff from the city living torrent?
Or even just the updates from ultimate fix? And if I can how can I do this, and can I do it without the get together and get to work eps?? thanks in advance(:

Hello @rareangel9,

I moved your post to the TS4 Downloads Support-section. Smile  Sorry to hear about these difficulties (?), but you due to the way in which the crack works, you have to install Get to Work + Get together prior to installing City Living.

The thing is, you have to modify the crack in order to just enable "certain" DLC in the game. If you don't do that, it will lead to game crashes/freezings and a host of other problems. At some point I may again work on an update-only-fix for the current 1.25 version. Which gives you only the base game updates for 1.25 without adding DLC. 

To do "more" about this, I would have to have deeper knowledge about how exactly the crack works, and compiling the update-only-fix is already difficult enough, since that requires a modified crack as well. Beyond that, since most users want the entire TS4 pack anyway, I don't see too much point in working on something that is not needed for the most part.

So no, there most likely won't be "individual DLC" from us. We haven't done this in the past, and won't be starting with this now. Another issue is, different sets of instructions would be needed which will confuse people even more.

What is the reason you don't want to download the Get to Work + Get together torrents, if I may ask? Data limits on your internet plan, ISP-restrictions...? Or is it a matter of not having enough filespace on the computer? Or something else?

Ooh okay, thank you! And the only reason I dont want to download get to work and get together is because when I'm downloading it it slows down my families internet for a while, and I'd mostly just like to be able to just get the updates from ultimate fix so I can get CAS CC, since I spend most of my time in CAS. Regardless thank so you much, I'll download Get together and Get to work soon! Smile

Isn't it an idea to just download then when everybody is sleeping? Before you go to sleep, start the download and just let it download then. Now i don't know what the rules are regarding the use of internet at your household. But if you are allowed to download big files and if that is an issue regarding the speed, then a midnight download would be the solution.

@rareangel9, also keep in mind that an Ultimate fix for just City Living would still have approximately 5GB in filesize (compressed), because it seems the newer DLC cannot be easily 'separated' from the older DLC. Just because the previous Ultimate fix had 3GB, and this new torrent has 6GB, you cannot automatically conclude that a new Ultimate fix also "must" be 3GB. The file analysis showed a different result; an Ultimate fix for just City Living + 1.25 patch + Backyard Stuff + Vintage Glamour Stuff would still have 5GB.

Which was the main reason we did not release an "Ultimate fix" this time around: in terms of filesize it just doesn't make much of a difference.
