Official patch not working?
tizerist:
guess what?
freetime patch is back on sims2.com!!! perfect timing eh? ;D
tizerist:
ok i've just installed the base game again, but if i do it in this order:
install game
no-cd crack
sims 2 patch
the patch automatically replaces the no-cd exe with a cd only exe again. how can i be sure if its patched it, seeing as it replaces the exe during the process?

Turn on debug mode in the game and it will have the new release number in the top right corner. Additionally, to avoid securom, you will want to get the no-cd crack for the patch.
And, if the patch replaces the .exe with a version that accesses the disk, this might also be a sign unto you that the patch has been installed (if the indication from the patch install process that the patch is installed and your game is updated are not sufficient for you).

ok thanks. where can i obtain the no-cd crack for the patch then please?
that would also be why the update process during installation of university just failed then...

ok thanks. where can i obtain the patches for the no-cd cracks for each of the EP's then please?
that would also be why the update process during installation of university just failed then...
EDIT: ok i know what to do. i'm going to play freetime with it mounted in daemon tools. forget the no-cd exe for now. got it. thanks again.
