All right, now I've downloaded the torrent and installed the MDF file included in the torrent.  What do I do with the MDS file?

I would love to download this, but I don't have WA.  Is it possible to use this without WA, or would that bork the whole thing up?

Since it says very clearly

WA and AMB are required for this save game
I'mma go with a "yes". Reading is fun, isn't it?

You could try it, but be aware of the risks and backup appropriately etc. etc.

Yes, I did read that, but I wanted to know whether I could run it at all.  That was probably a stupid question on my part, but unless a WA world is attached to the neighborhood, why would you need WA?

Well, perhaps it's because I have only 768 MB of RAM.  I had also regenerated the Sims 2 folder in My Docs, if that's relevant.  In any case, I have installed uTorrent on my XP (you're right, it IS tiny) and am about to install Daemon Tools.  Will the "lite" version be sufficient?  All the other versions are trial versions.

I'm using "a" Windows Vista.  I was complaining more about the computer's specs than the OS itself, and that wasn't even the main point of my post.  Frankly, I'd rather you'd threadshit somewhere else.  Retardo Land would be a good place for you.

No one gets naked to pee.   Or... do they?
*cough*

Maybe not to pee, but...

What a pointless patch.  All we get is some stupid stuff about cars and ONE minor bug fix when there are so many others needing fixing.  This is all we get for having the lighting system totally borked.  Doesn't EA ever get anything right?  (Oh wait, I already know the answer to that one.  Wink)

Well, guess I have to learn how to ARR  Wink.  I don't have my computer with me now (I'm using a sucky Windows Vista), but I'll be sure to try this out when I get it back. Thank you for the help!

ETA:  It turns out that after I cut my Downloads folder from 160 MB to 35 MB, the game ran fairly well and stopped crashing constantly, so know I wish to ARR a stuff pack. I'm trying to download uTorrent on my XP, but the Hotbar engine that allows access to the site is not installing correctly.  Do I need to have uTorrent and Daemon Tools on the same computer on which I plan to install the stuff pack, or can I install them on a different computer?  Also, do uTorrent and Daemon Tools have to be on the same computer as each other?

Doesn't AM make this unnecessary?

No, .reg files from one OS aren't going to work on another.

If you absolutely cannot use the discs (are you playing on a netbook? Because that's a Bad Plan), you'll either need to make ISOs of them on a different computer and transfer via USB stick or portable hard drive, or download them via torrent. In either case you'll have to install Daemon Tools on the current one (it's free) so it can read those ISOs and allow you to install.

No, I'm not running on a netbook (what do you think I am, crazy?), it's just that the discs are hardly in mint condition and I've lost some registration codes.  Which of the two methods would be easier?
36  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Sims 2 and Windows 7 on: 2010 September 05, 21:50:49
As far as I know you can't transfer registry files from one OS to another.   Do you have both installed on the same machine?  The speed would be determined by your CPU.   If it's a new machine you should just install the game on it the normal way.

No, I do not, and there is no way I can install the Sims 2 using the discs.
37  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Sims 2 and Windows 7 on: 2010 September 01, 23:14:16
I know this is an old thread, but how does one transfer the registry files from XP to Windows 7?  I haven't had any experience with Regedit beyond opening it, but I really would love it if I could run the Sims 2 at a good speed for once in my life.
(Feel free to P&L at me for this.  I won't mind too much. Smiley)

Nevermind, I got it to work now.
39  TS2: Burnination / Oops! You Broke It! / Re: "Conflict with Emulation Software" error after patching AL for the first time on: 2010 September 01, 02:08:12
Where can I get one?  I see one at GameBurnWorld, but Norton marks that site as unsafe.
40  TS2: Burnination / Oops! You Broke It! / "Conflict with Emulation Software" error after patching AL for the first time on: 2010 September 01, 01:08:04
I patched my game for the first time recently, and after I ran the game, I got a "Conflict with Emulation Software" error message.  I have never gotten such a message before, and as far I as I know I have no disc emulators or CD-burning software of any kind.  I rebooted several times, but it did not work.  I have all Ep's and FFS running on XP.
