TOOL: 3Booter, the Incooperative Game Kicker
LilimVipera:
Hey, I'm using 3booter and the limiter, too, also with Medieval, but now I checked these days and saw, it's not working...
I mean, I start the game with 3booter, but the framerate still meets the 100s, on main menu it's even around 3000! O.O" Same thing with Sims3...
So what to do? Somewhere they said to hit F12, but nothing changes.
At TS3, the 3booter is in the newest addon-folder, but the medieval addon pirates and nobles has only launcher-startups, so it doesn't work there.
Please, has anyone an idea?
Thank you forward!

I can't say about TSM as I don't have it, but if you look back a page you might find the reason it isn't working with TS3. I had a similar issue with TS3 and found the solution, which worked for me.

I have been getting issues with the frame rate going above 100 after installing World Adventures, Ambitions and Generations on top of the base game.
Was running the base game just fine with 3booter until a few days ago when AwesomeMod was updated again, I got the latest version, tried to patch my game and got errors related to the game not finding QtCore4.dll. This led to installing the above exp packs in the hope that I'd be able to play again.
I really don't want my video card frying, so to that interest I have a few questions. The Sims 3 and exp packs are installed to my G:\Program Files directory. No stuff packs currently and no Medieval. I'm using Windows XP.
1. Which directory should 3booter be in? G:\Program Files\The Sims 3 Generations, or G:\Program Files\The Sims 3 Generations\Game\Bin? Or somewhere different altogether?
2. My 3booter.exe file has a file date of 2/3/2010; is there a newer one I should be using?
3. I downloaded FPS Limiter 0.2 but even after reading this thread am a bit confused over where to a) extract it, and b) install it.
Thanks, all. :)

It needs to go into a different directory for the FPS Limiter to properly kick in, in my experience and experimentation. Try reading a page or two back and you will find the answer.

Same thing, read a page or two back and all should be revealed.

So the 3booter files should be extracted to (and run from) the G:\Program Files\The Sims 3 directory? That's what I'm getting from the posts on this thread. (I have G:\ as a secondary partition of my HD) Sorry if I'm being obtuse, I just want to clarify that I'm doing the right thing here.
Should the FPS limiter also be in the above directory?
Yes, I'm a n00b with computer stuff, but really don't want my video card burnt up. I had to replace it last year and can't afford another one. No matter where I've been putting the above files I haven't been seeing the green numbers show up and the frame rates are climbing above 100 (and pressing F12 doesn't seem to do anything to bring them down).
Thanks again.
EDIT: It seems to be working now, in the base game directory, for both the 3booter and the FPS limiter.
