Installing Parenthood without the other expansion packs.

Hello
I downloaded Parenthood expansion pack from you pirate bay acc and it says that i can't isntall the expansion without installing Get to Work, Get together, City Living, Toddlers, Vampires & Bowling Stuff first in order for this expansion to work. I have a laptop and i don't have nearly enough space on my computer to install all that and still have it run smoothly. So my question is, is there any way I could just install the Parenthood expansion pack on my origin without installing all those other expansions first?



Mod edit: moved to the right section.

I think not

You cannot mix a legit game with a cracked game. Sorry!

You could install the (G4TW) items in the following order, as described here:

Then you go to where you installed your The Sims 4 to. Delete the following folders: EP01, EP02, EP03, FP01, GP01, GP02, GP03, GP04, SP01, SP02, SP03, SP04, SP05, SP06, SP07, SP08, SP09 and SP10. Only these folders; then you download the file here:

This is a .rar archive, and it contains a modified RldOrigin.ini file. Please put that modified file into the Game\Bin subfolder of your TS4 installation. Replace the existing file when prompted. Then you can play the (cracked) TS4 with just the Parenthood GP. 

It's a bit more complicated than in the past when you could simply pick and choose what DLC you want to install. You can do that as well with TS4, but only if you have it on Origin. Also, the last step (adding a modified RldOrigin.ini file) is not 100% compulsory, but it adds the effect that your game doesn't freeze at startup for a minute or two. If you simply delete these folders, every time you start the game it will freeze your game for a minute or two and that is super-annoying. Adding a modified RldOrigin.ini file remedies the effect.

I may also write a little guide about it when I get to it, maybe on the weekend, since this is a question that does come up from time to time.
