Accessing the gallery with a cracked version?

Hey all!

First time posting, I've been using G4TW's repack of the Sims 4 for a while now and it works like a charm but I've been really wanting to use the Gallery (and other online features).

I've tried to google if this was possible on a cracked version but I didn't find much except very old tutorials and I don't know if these still work with that version/repack of the crack.
Has anyone succeeded in accessing the Gallery with their game?


Thanks! 

(sorry if this has been asked before, the forum's search bar didn't give me much)

Hello @LiarFire,

I can answer that quickly:

That hasn't been working since mid-2015 or so. The only way to grab Gallery items is now through having a legit base game on Origin yourself, or ... through something like this. Of course the latter is not exactly elegant, but still an option I would say.

Sorry there is no easier solution!

Thank you for your answer! I would really love to simply access the Gallery from my game, I'm hoping a better solution will come sometime soon.

If avenues are blocked off completely, they usually don't come back. That goes for any piece of software. I still remember that the workaround from many years ago, was "there" for nearly a year, until an update on Origin eventually blocked it. 

I also "know" I should post updates more often to that Gallery-collection I linked to before, but I'm just not motivated anymore.  

Another alternative, and I know this sounds very cheesy now, would be to wait for some discount of an Origin basegame. Or use a reliable third-party reseller, like here:
