World Adventures wants me to patch. Help!

Post by Cororon » September 17th, 2019, 12:45 am

I have installed the base game on my new PC, and now when I'm trying to install World Adventures it says that it needs to update to continue with the install. I don't want 1.69! What should I do? Can I use the Super Patch 1.67 already?

If your trying to download WA from Origin that won't work if go the disc route all your EP's and SP's will have to be on disc.

Now if you EP's and SP's are all on disc run the Superpatcher before trying to install them.

Then run the Superpatcher first then install the EP's and SP's from the discs.

And note Outdoor Living, Generations and Town Life will give some warning about an older version you can ignore that and re-run the Superpatcher after everything is installed and also you'll need to put fresh copies of the Graphics Card and Graphics Rules sgr's back in the Base Games location usually best to wait until everything is install before placing those as the Superpatcher will overwrite them.

Just make sure after everything is installed and the Superpatcher re-run that you place fresh copies of those sgr's.

If you have all EP's and SP's depending on your computer it could take around 1 1/2 to almost 2 hrs :evil:

Ok, Generations said that I had to update, so i ran the super patch again. Now Generations tell me that the installed Sims 3 version is newer than this product version and that I must update. :xWhat do I do now???
