How to get rid of SecuRom, NOW

Piggi sims was the death of my load up times too.

jolrei:
Using a no-cd crack should actually speed up load times since the computer does not have to access a disk drive to load the game.  Lots of CC will naturally slow this down.  It is worth going through your clothes and CC objects occasionally to purge those items that looked good on Friday night after you got home from the pub, but you now know you will never use.

True. My load times were really quick until I added a load of recolours from Piggis Sims.


Those recolors also compress to a mere fraction of their size, so those files are bog-ware when you download them any way you look at them. They are such an awesome idea though. It should have already been in place in the game to start with. Incidentally, my game load is the same with only the mass of recolors,  only the meshes or both together. Odd phenomenon.

So I'm going to be annoying and ask this again.  Does anybody have an answer to my question above.  Why won't the crack launch the game?  Do I need to do something to make act as a launcher?  pleeese i ned halp111!!!!!

I'm trying to install the post Seasons expansions and I can't get the no cd crack to work.  I've followed the seemingly simple instructions in the beginning of this thread.  I've downloaded the correct patch from gamecopyworld.com, placed it in program files\EA games\the Sims 2 last ep\ TS bin, then I created a short cut to the crack.  But, when I try to run the game from the crack instead of starting the game my computer just asks me which program I would like to open the patch in.  So what am I doing wrong?


You did actually unrar the cracked .exe didn't you? It is simples. Unrar to desktop. Zip up original .exe and place somewhere safe, JIC. Delete original .exe. Copy and paste cracked .exe into C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Seasons\TSBin. Right click on .exe icon and choose 'send to...desktop (create shortcut). Close folder. Run game. Easy friggin' peasy.

You used the No-DVD/Fixed EXE one and not the fixed image one didn't you?
