Ambitions Torrent
Orlando:
I haven't ventured into patching or EP2 waters yet. I'm reading, watching and asking questions to be prepared when the time comes.
When WA was released I jumped the gun and was very sorry that I did because all my game saves were unplayable. My current town is wonderful and stuffed with beauty and CC which makes it important for me to be cautious about how to proceed with updates.
If you need a disc-check bypass I think it's in the test file.

Problems have been reported about the game refuting AM's compatibility with the current patch. Pescado is working on it.
You're welcome to try it and give feedback. ( I would only attempt to try it on a new game until the kinks are ironed out)
@Sablesasha: I use Poweriso on Vista and XP and virtually mount the disc to save my drive from wear and tear. [x]Just install and restart the computer. Left click the .iso and set the number of drives to 1 or more from the context menu ---consequently the option to Mount to drive: x (a letter will now be assigned) will appear in the same menu. The drive and the virtually mounted disc will now appear under the "my computer" interface alongside your regular DVD or CD drive.
You can also browse and retrieve your game disc files this way, for example when trying to find the original .ini or .exe files to restore installed game files to original state before patching.
Sexual Innuendo:
Downloaded the .rar, extracted it like I should. I go to install the game, and it tells me I need to update before I can proceed with the install.
After a few seconds of trying to update, the installer tells me that "Update of The Sims 3(tm) failed, Setup is unable to continue".
I have all EPs and SPs, pirated, and the original game legally.
Anyone know what the issue is?
(Also, my friend is having the exact same issue as I am.)
Nevermind, I didn't realize that the original game needed to be patched AGAIN.

Thank you Grillcheesesammie.
Mounting sounds like good idea. Give my poor puter a rest that way.
One hour to go, yippee
I promise, I'll seed before I do anything!

@grillcheesesammich, I just rearranged my Mods folder with the resource.cfg directions at MTS, but despite adding the file you listed it's still rejecting me. This was also a strange annoyance when I just had the base game. I'd enable the disc bypass in the config, but it would still ask for a disc. I had a legal copy so it wasn't a big deal, and everything else in AM worked as planned, it was just the disc issue.

Ahh, thanks very much. It installed like a dream! How are you two accessing it without the disc?
On the disc is a Vitality folder, inside that is a Ambitions folder, inside it is a cracked .exe and .dll. I changed the name of the original .dll and .exe for backup purposes, and am using the cracked .exe. I have no idea what a Mac user would do, the few times I have gone about finding cracked .app files, I have come up mostly empty handed.
AM appears to not be working correctly right now, so it's no-cd feature is pretty worthless until we can figure out what the issue is.
