No CD check not working

<< < (2/4) > >>

sweetbajan:
Hey so my game is not running without the CD and that option is actually "Enabled."

I have never had a problem with it except for when I recently upgraded my game to 1.7.11. Can anyone help or offer any tips for me to make this work?

wizard_merlin:
Are you trying to launch through the .exe game file or the Sims 3 Launcher?  You need to use the .exe file for the no CD check to work.  If you installed WA and are using the default desktop icon, then it's the launcher, so just create a shortcut to the .exe file, and it should work fine.

Ok a bit confused.. im running a mac and what exactly is the name of the exe file (I have a TS3.exe. file and of course cant open it because I am on the mac) and yes I am running it through the launcher... always have ran it through there  ??? also I did not buy WA, I just upgraded my Sims 3.

thanks for your help.

The launcher has its own check. You should not use the launcher, it is stupid and it sucks. There are directions for launcher-avoidance for Macs somewhere.

wizard_merlin:
On a PC it is the TS3.exe, should be the same file.  You should be able to double click it to launch the game, unless Mac's are even weirder than I thought they were.  You just need a shortcut pointing to that file to launch from the desktop.

AM's no CD check only works if you launch the game from the .exe file, if you launch through the TS3 Launcher, AM's no check check won't work like it is meant to.
