Please help! No Solutions work.

Hello, first of all just want to say thanks for providing all these fixes etc. But I have a massive problem. I spent the last 2 days installing and uninstalling Sims 3 and all the Exp. packs. At first I only had the Base Game which worked perfectly. Then I downloaded "High End Loft Stuff", "Late Night", "Generations", and "Pets". I tried every available fix and solution. Nothing works. When I'm at the loading screen, when it's about to finish it crashes and says "Sims 3 has stopped working". I think it's something to do with Pets. I just saw your "Pets (fixed)" file and downloading that right now, hopefully that works, because I'm seriously frustrated after 2 days of complete failure.

Thanks in advance.

*EDIT:* Just uninstalled Pets and started the game (was Generations), and I still get the error. Probably because I didn't completely uninstall, but I'm gonna do that once I finish downloading above mentioned file.

If you just uninstalled Pets, your game should load so I don't think this issue has to do with Pets.
The "fixed" Pets version has to do with a missing file that was needed to install the game, so if you installed it before, there's no reason why the "fixed" version would do you any good. But lets think.
What kind of base game are you using?
Prior to installing the expansions, did you uninstall the base game at any point?
Did you use this fix?
Are you using any mods/cc?
What is your game version? You can find out as shown in the image below.

I downloaded the base game from Piratebay, it was extremezone's version. (razor1911).

I had the basegame, which worked without any problems, then installed Pets, which didn't work. Since then I found your site and the fixes. Yes I tried the ultimate fix and it didn't work.
No mods or custom content.
Version is 1.31.118.015002

How would I not patch it? Whenever I install an expansion pack it asks me to update, and also where it says update from the Launcher, maybe it's cause of that that it updates to 1.31 instead of 1.29?

Sounds good. Will try now and hopefully works. Will post my results when I'm done.

Oh my god...finally got it working. Thanks a lot! Don't know how happy you've made me

//EDIT

Well.....I have a new problem. (Sorry for doublepost btw.) I moved my
new created family in a househould and a few seconds later game crashes
and I get the "... has stopped working" error. Is there a fix for that?

Hello,

Do you have any Mods and/or Custom Content?

Hi,

I've been following this guide all day, and last night. I have all the Sims 3 expansion packs downloaded, and of course, the base game.

I' couldn't even tell you how many times i've tried to get this working by uninstalling and re-installing the game. I then saw this thread, and uninstalled everything again, then reinstalled while i was waiting to see if you could get your game working.

So i did everything. Followed the Ultimate fix guide, and replaced step 11 with your manual patch you posted here.

Still having an error message appear saying "The base game is incompatible with the expansion packs..." I honestly have no idea what else to try.

And yes, my base game is the same version as mentioned here--Razor 1911

Please respond A.S.A.P with a way to fix this, before i blow my brains out!!!

Thanks,

Robyn

Nope, it's a fresh install.

Also added it to my DEP, and running it in Windows 95 Compatibility mode.

Disabled DEP and the Compatibilty modes and it seems to work now, thanks

One question though, I downloaded Master Suite overnight, can I just install it or do I have to reinstall everything?

Hello,

You should be able to just install it. Install the game itself, but do not apply any more cracks.
Install the game and run it too see if it works. Good luck! (Also, DO NOT update the game when prompted to)
