TOOL: 3Booter, the Incooperative Game Kicker
J. M. Pescado:
Try the new version. I wonder if it's stupid space-name related. SPACE NAMES ARE EVIL.
J. M. Pescado:
Something is wrong with your game if it is being jerky: Don't use a framelimiter if your computer sucks. Besides, it can't be jerky, the game itself has an internal tickrate of 30 fps, meaning even if we rendered faster, the game would only be drawing identical frames of unchangingness. Besides, humans cannot even see faster than ~30 fps. If you're getting jerkiness, you probably shouldn't be framelimiting.

I tried seeing if the game would boot up if I took 3booter and fpslimit files out of the root install directory and placed them in the Game/Bin folder... same thing happens I see a dos window flash for a second then nothing but when I take out the fpslimit files and the game starts up fine by way of 3booter.
Not sure what I am doing wrong.
From your description, it sounds like you are trying to start the game by double clicking on the fpslimit file, is this correct? I believe you are still supposed to start with the 3booter, which I believe would check for the fpslimit file and execute it.
I suspect 3booter won't work if you aren't using a nointro pack, since you have to sit through the ea games logo and hit a key to skip the movie, that will probably take longer than 30 seconds. (I was going nuts before my no intro mod!!)

I tried to install FPS_Limiter, and Windoze wouldn't let me. It gave me a warning about needing something called Hookhelper and then refused to install the program. I have no idea what Hookhelper even is. I'm new to Vista, and the learning curve has been very steep compared to XP. I've been running the game from the TS3.exe file, but would prefer to use 3booter. Both 3booter and FPS_limiter are installed to the root The Sims 3 directory under Program Files, not the bin. Plz halp, kthxbai.

The fpslimit.zip contains the necessary DLLs, including Hookhelper. Just extract everything from the zip file and place it in the same location as 3booter.exe. Then, run 3booter.
