TOOL: 3Booter, the Incooperative Game Kicker
Sabrewulf:
I never got an option to install them.....
kuronue:
Delete everything you have right now.
Download 3Booter and FPSlimiter.
"Install" them to the same place you just deleted from. There isn't an installer ,you just put them where they go.
Click 3Booter to launch the game.
Sabrewulf:
Thanks kuronue, that worked :)

I downloaded the files from the first two posts of this thread again.
I extracted all the contained files into C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 World Adventures\ folder.
Clicking on 3booter.exe does nothing (a command prompt box doesn't pop up, not even for a split second), however double clicking FPS_Limiter.exe briefly displays the following:
However, if I move all the files to the Sims 3 base game's root folder, then double clicking 3booter.exe loads up the game but the FPS is not limited (it goes to about 50-60 most of the time).
I have Windows 7 and the latest patch of World Adventure and the newest version of 3booter/FPS limiter.
Edit: Sorry about the big images again. Here's a screenie of my WA root folder.
Edit 2: Same result regardless of whether or not the Sims 3 launcher is running when 3booter.exe is clicked.
Simulate:
There are 4 cache files located in My Documents ...The Sims 3. To avoid problems they should be deleted whenever you add a new or changed mod to your game.
The easiest way to do this is to create a batch program file n your Desktop. I have created one that also runs 3booter.
Follow these instructions if you want to do the same:
IMPORTANT NOTE.
This version is for Windows XP only and uses the C drive.
If you have a different operating system or use a different drive, change the TWO lines that start with "cd" accordingly.
1. Update 3booter and fpslimit as per Pescado's instructions.
2. Right click on your Desktop, select New and Text Document.
3. Double click on the "New Text Document.txt" icon that has been created and copy the following in to the text file:
cd "C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\"
del scriptCache.package
del simCompositorCache.package
del compositorCache.package
del CASPartCache.package
cd "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 World Adventures\"
3Booter.exe
exit
4. Select File and Save As. Replace the filename with: "Sims 3 WA.bat" and Save.
5. Select File and Exit or click on the X.
Now to clear your caches and run 3booter, just double click the "Sims 3 WA.bat" icon on your Desktop. Look for the icon that
shows a cog wheel in a window.
