1. God's Chosen People
Control-Clicking a sim/house will offer the option to "Make Sacred" or
"Remove Sacred", giving that household or sim immunity to StoryProgression
and other assorted random toadings. The Chosen receive a gold halo on
their house and on their tracking tags when tracked on radar. You may
switch instantly between the Chosen household with CRTL-RClick if
the "Supreme Commander" playmode is enabled.

Daimon:
I have read every page in this thread and I have noted that while a lot of people are having problems with the patch, unfortunately no one seems to have the same problem I do. I hope there is a simple fix and that someone will be around to clue me in!
I have an, ahem, less than legally acquired international version game which decided to start crashing at random after I tried to install EA's new patch. Since the install aborted due to the launcher being removed from my computer, I figured oh well -- and habitually updated AwesomeMod now I was at it anyway. Only then did I, in my extreme morning alertness, notice that the latest AM requires the patch.
Is there any way I can undo the mess I've made without reinstalling the entire game? I have random crashes right and left every 4-5 minutes, rendering the game pretty much unplayable. In a worst case scenario, can I reinstall on top of my existing game and at least rescue my neighborhood?
Thanks in advance and apologies for being less than Windows literate.
Death-Jester:
Just thought I'd let you know that a reinstall sorted my problem and I successfully installed the patch.

You're a little tardy to the party. I did, infact, read, and researched on the boards. I wasn't aware of what he meant by "toadings", and I did do more than a few "advanced" searches on the board to see if it had been addressed in another thread...
You know where to stick that sharp stick..have a lovely day, though :)

If you're talking about the RLD to RZR update then you will need to do some registry editting to get it to work properly. Locate the SKU file in your registry by either searching (CTRL+F) "SKU" or manually locating the Sims 3 folder. In Vista64bit edition, it's found in this directory: HLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Sims\The Sims 3
If you use CTRL+F make sure it's the Sims 3 folder and not some other folder Look at the directory to verify.
Next right-click on SKU and change the value from 7 to 2. That should fix it. Enjoy!
I'm using Windows XP so I do not know which registry file to edit from your instruction it is different.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Electronic Arts
Contains one key that says (value not set)
\Sims 3
has nothing
\Launcher\Settings
has six items in it,
CCDisabled
DateTimeOffline
FirstRun
PageIndex
UpdateMode
Could the last one be it? Data says 0x000...1 (1) Someone can tell me who knows this if that is safe to change or not?
Changing only the skuversion.txt did not help it to start. I am talking about the RLD TO RZR update, which seems like it was a bad idea now.
Also in case anyone inquires, file permissions are correct - so I really don't know why it complains about the version number :/
