So the game executable doesn't need to be the specific name, eg simsep7.exe or whatever?

No, that makes sense.  The filename of the .exe is simply an identifier.  It does not affect the functionality of the file.  You could name it "FTno-cd.exe" and it would still work, provided that your shortcut pointed to that instead of the "Sims2EP7.exe" file.

This would also make it simple for patching and loading new EPs, as you would not have to remember to rename your original ".exe" file for that.

And Pescado proves that he's smarter than us once again. Brat.  ;)

talysman:
Of course he's smarter. The directions say to rename or move the original EXE because the directions are written for *dumb* people. People who would start the game from a shortcut that still pointed to the original, SecureROM-infected, EXE. Renaming the original EXE or moving it out of the folder and moving in the NoCD crack, keeping it the same name as the original EXE, is a safe-guard against stupidity.

morriganrant:
I always renamed them so that I can actually remember to get another. You would think that this would be simple enough, alas, not for me.
