Unable to start the Sims 3  Empty Unable to start the Sims 3

Post by Guest Sun 01 Jul 2012, 16:03

I have a problem... It is that whenever I try to start the launcher, but then I get this message about how I have to update the game and such - you know, that problem that you talk about in one of your videos. I have both applied the latest fix and done everything you should do according to this vid. However, I never found any "rest expansion packs" still existing, so I couldn't do much on this point. When I try to open the game via the TS3.exe file, it says:
"Unable to start game
Your The sims 3 Base Game is incopatible with the current Sims 3 Expansion Pack. Please update your game via the game launcher."
Well, this isn't possible, because I can't open the launcher. What should I do?

Did you try uninstall your game and re-install, apply the latest patch and then install the crack?

how many expansion packs and stuff packs do you have you might need to update them, download this here http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=409829 it downloads all your updates for each game and will automatically install them, try this and see and keep me posted.

Hello,

This is a registry error, did you reinstall prior to experiencing these problems?
