Why Does the Launcher Still Say Unauthorized??!

<< < (4/4)

kemowery:
I installed the leaked version to see if my system would handle it well enough or if I needed a beefier video card than the minimum recommended.  I bought the retail version, though, and am still getting the unauthorized copy warning as well.

I initially tried deleting my internet cache and cookies.  That kind of worked, except that the welcome screen was in Spanish, which was weird, and it didn't fully load.  

So deleted, scrubbed my registry, rebooted, and reinstalled.  Still no dice.

I'd skip the launcher entirely except that I do want to use the Sims Exchange, and it looks like that's the only way to upload stuff, correct?  If there's another way, I'll just ditch the launcher entirely.

Izimbu, how did you get the leaked version to update to the retail version?

EDIT: Nevermind.  I got it.

How do I start the game without the launcher?? (Yes, n00b here.. lol)


Change shortcut target (right click on it, choose properties): "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin\TS3.exe"


I'm not really understanding how this works on a Mac. I certainly can find that path, and the TS3.exe, of course, but am unable to open it because of the .exe extension. Anyone on a Mac know how to work this?

Sadly, no luck so far. See here and here.
