I've tried copying the Bin folder to the desktop, adding the cracked files to it, and then adding it back to the Game folder, but still I get the message that it's read-only.  Is that what you mean?  Or perhaps I am missing something?


This may sound horribly obvious, but you are adding the cracked files to C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 etc., right?  Not the drive you have mounted with the image?


I am a fucking idiot.

Thank you.

Aracelis:
When using the awesome mod are we supposed to do anything with the .exe file to run the game with no cd, or the mod do the trick all by itself?

I finally broke down and decided to try it.  I'm not sure how well it will work since my CPU speed is only 1.8GHz (with XP, and all other requirements are met).


Just wanted to put it out there for anyone who might be wondering the same thing:

Meeting or beating all of the other system requirements seems to make up for the slightly lower than recommended CPU speed.  The game doesn't run incredibly fast (I do get a lot of lag sometimes, especially moving from close-up to far-out views), but I haven't had any crashing issues and the graphics are set to medium/high.

Alex:
Is anyone else finding that saving the game takes about 5-10 actual minutes?

I swear it didn't take this long yesterday, when I fired up the game after installed it. But then again, that was when Sunset Valley in my game actually appeared normal; before it mysteriously split into two separate planes of existence making it practically unplayable.

Sims3_1.0.632.00002_from_1.0.631.00002.exe

Sims3_1.0.632.00107_from_1.0.631.00107.exe

The rar files are named slightly differently to that above, in case The Box is looking for any specific files. I'm probably just being paranoid, but hey.

I only saw the two patch files mentioned on MATY, not sure if there were more.

ETA: 1.0.631.00002 is for the DVD/RZR release.
1.0.631.00107 is for the Digital Download release of the game.
Cheers Kralore.

So, I'm a moron and a noob (beat you to it); these are to patch the reloaded version to a more recent one? 1.0.631.00002 for razor and 1.0.631.00107 digital download?
'Cause I was looking for the reloaded to razor patch on piratebay but there were a lot of crashing//failure issues but I would quite like to be able to use store things.
