The Sims 3: Fail to start game when install's done Empty The Sims 3: Fail to start game when install's done

I installed The sims 3 and it worked fine, but then when I installed World adventures and Ambitions it didn´t work anymore.
I did exactly what i was suppose to do but when I start the game and the launcher comes up I press play and nothing happends, the window disappear and no game is starting.. I can´t figure out what the problem is..

I have reinstalled the games twice allready and installed the crack fixes.

EDIT

Your Game versions should be as following:

1. The Sims 3.........: v1.14.11.007001
2. World Adventures...: v2.9.10.007002
3. High End Loft Stuff: v3.5.8.007001
4. Ambitions..........: v4.2.32.007001

Mine is:
The sims 3 ........: 1.18.9.009002
World Adventures .......: 2.13.6.009002
Ambitions .......: 4.6.6.009001

If i have looked at the right place.

Hello,

Ok, then I'm sure it's the out-of-date-crack problem. Please try to apply this Crack: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t711-6111-from-6081-late-night-here

Hello,

No, if you already updated your Game to the latest version, just apply the Crack for Late Night.

1. Do i have to install late night to be able to use the crack?
2. If I put the file Late night on a extern hardrive will the game still work when i install it? My computer is full so I am using a extern harddrive right now.. The sims 3, ambitions and World adventures took to much space..

There is 3 maps, Bridgeport.sims3; Bridgeport.sims3.backup; bridgeport.sims3.bad.

My sim-character was a copy so i could replace it again, so the question is what map is the correct one to my original sim and what shall I do next?

Hello,

I don't understand your question. It should all be in: (My) Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\saves

Hello,

You can't put a back up back if you don't have a earlier made backup. You should make a backup when your Game is running well and you want to reinstall. If you haven't made a backup béfore the problem occurred, I'm afraid you'll have to start over.

But this is a strange situation. Open the "Bridgeport.sims3.backup" folder and copy all the content to: (My) Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\saves , now see if your Game works.
