Complications with The Sims 3 World Adventures installation. [SOLVED]

I'm trying to install TS3EP01, but I cannot do steps 3,5, and 6. At step 3, it has unknown characters as an error instead of regular English letters.

Did you see any error in english ?

Yes, there wasn't even any English at all. I'm thinking of maybe using Selyo's updates in his torrent?

What language are you using at your desktop?

English.

The error contains unicode characters, I think.

It's odd, please hold on. I'll try to find solution.

This happened to me to! What I did was just continue through the installation and didn't get an error (I don't think, lol). Sims 3 worked perfect though, until I tried to install High-End Loft. Could someone please help us on how to fix it? I really want to install Ambitions and the other packs but don't want to continue until we know how to fix it. Here's what it looks like:

I'm thinking:

Inside Selyo's Crack, there are 4 updates, each for their respective game. Maybe if I use the updates, I maybe able to bypass the steps?

I recently uninstalled everything and re-downloaded the torrents, after seeding for a few hours I knew it was 101% complete. I got Sims 3 to work, but after installing the updates everything went wrong. I am now downloading Selyo's patches+cracks, and will let know how it goes. 65 seeders, 2734kb/s, I'll update back in about 15 minutes.


//EDIT

It worked! Download all of the .ISO expansion files and stuff. Installin order, and update after each install. Then just apply the crack inFast Lane Stuff (the regular Sims 3 patch and the Fast Lane crack.)Download Seylo's cracks + patches, you won't need to patches just makesure you get EA download manager when you install Sims 3 Base, thenafter installing fast lane and replacing with the cracks in Fast Lane,use the cracks in Seylo then start the S3.exe in Programs Files >Electronic Arts > The Sims 3. Good luck.

Hello,

To everyone who's trying to find a fix for this "problem": there isn't any.
It's normal that it has strange characters, that's why the Installation Guide says that you just have to click ">>".

Oh, I see. But will Selyo's crack and the updates be an alternative solution?

Yeah. It lets you be fully upgraded and play on all expansions. I'm fully upgraded and playing right now with all expansions. Just apply the Fast Lane crack after installing everything normally. It worked for me.
