roflcopter...
I own legit TS3 (yes, I bought it). I cannot install the expansion because of the region the game thinks it is.
You want to fix this? In regedit... HKLM\SOFTWARE\Sims\The Sims 3. Change SKU value to 7. Then yay, it installs. Screw EA.
Do you then need to change it back to your original region code SKU on both the base game and the expansion? Please let me know. Thanks.
ETA: I also have a legit TS3 - and downloaded the expansion.
FYI, in case anyone was wondering, under win7 the SKU key is in HKLM/SOFTWARE/Wow6432Node/Sims/The Sims 3. I suspect it may be lurking there for vista users as well.

Hi,
I have a somewhat noobish question to ask, so here's the deal.
I have the original TS3 game, and have been looking for a WA free download. I have never done this before, all the previous The Sims games I own have been store bought or pre-ordered. So thanks to this thread I finally found some via this link http://www.zerosec.ws/the-sims-3-world-adventures-reloaded/
I downloaded No. 19 by (Sencer) and extracted it to the Game\Bin folder as the vague directions said.
Quote
1. Unrar.
2. Install the Sims 3.
3. Burn or mount the image.
4. Install this addon. Use keygen when prompted for serial.
5. Copy over the cracked content to \Game\Bin\ of your installation directory.
6. Play the game.
7. Support the software developers. If you like this game, BUY IT
But it never went through all the way, as file number 28 was corrupted. So I wasted two hours... for seemingly nothing.
So in order to avoid the hassle, Can anyone please tell me how to go about downloading WA? The steps to take, how do you get a serial number, IS a serial number needed, etc.
Thanks.
You have a corrupt download? What 'never went all the way'? Is this when you were installing the game or when you were unzipping it?
Otherwise I'm not sure what advice to give except follow the same instructions as above, 1-7. Although mount the image should be done before installing the game. Step 4 tells you how to get the serial number.

I have a legit copy of S3. I was too scared to use an arr'd version for the base game. I was able to arr' WA without any problems from a Portuguese site via bit torrent and burn to disc. I followed the instructions and was able to start the game. However, I could not actually play and the error message was "disc authentication verification" and to contact EA support services. I downloaded and ran "Rookit Revealer" as suggested in another thread here at MATY and sure enough it located the indicated files and supposedly removed them. Well, we know that I can't contact EA support so I was a wondering if anyone can tell me a way around this problem. :-\ I will be eternally grateful at least in this lifetime for the help/advice. Remember, I am a slow newbie.
