Update to install Showtime?[SOLVED] Empty Update to install Showtime?[SOLVED]

Post by Guest Sat 10 Mar 2012, 21:38

Made a .dmg out of the .rar so that I could use the Installer.app.

Attempting to install, the Installer says that the version of the base game is not compatible or updatable. So... Should I update? That won't break the fix for any of the other stuff, will it?

Thanks!

Hello,

As long as you only update to v1.31 and not further.

As Admin says, be sure you are updating to the 1.31 version. And remember to crack the game with the latest fix after updating. Otherwise it won't work. The update replaces your cracked files with updated original ones. So whats the best order to do this?

1 - Manually update to 1.31 version
2 - Install Showtime
3 - Crack the game with the ultimate fix

You should have no problem with this! =)

Happy Playing!

1. How do I check the version? Launcher only shows Launcher version.

If I 'Get Info' on The Sims 3 application, the Info window shows v1.00.007357

I'll look for a manual 1.31 version file.

Nope. Not like that on Mac. Sad

Huh. Version.tag file says 1.29.55.014001

Guess I'll wait for G4TW's crack, then update.

Hello,

The current Fix is working with version 1.31 of the game.
So what I recommend you to do, is downloading the new patch here: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t3597-can-t-update-the-sims-3-to-v131-fix-manual-patch-updated

After downloading and applying it, download the PC version of the Ultimate Fix, but use the instructions from the Mac version(!).

This should help. Just be sure NOT to update to 1.32 and you should be good. Good luck!

Got the email that the fix was updated for the new patch.

Tried updating twice. Each time, the Launcher says (after downloading and attempting to install): Some files have been modified. Please re-install.

Hello,

Did you use the Mac version of the Fix? It was updated slightly later than the PC fix.

I was just trying to update via the Launcher. Should I do so manually?

Hello,

The manual patch should work fine, yes. But I haven't updated the links for Mac users, like I did with PC users, yet. https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t3597-can-t-update-the-sims-3-to-v131-fix-manual-patch

I'm working on it now.

Alright. I'll get on that!

//EDIT

Did manual update. Worked.

Did Ultimate Fix (replaced The Sims 3\Game\Bin files w/ cracked Showtime files).
"No game disc found."

Did I not do it right...?

edit: Forgot the last step. Wink

Sorry. Been doing so much! Looking for another car, doing finance stuff, getting situated in our new place... My apologies!

Installing Showtime now... And it worked!
