This doesn't appear to be stripped of SecuROM. Notice the fiddling required.

Can someone report what happens to the portrait regeneration with M&G - I don't want my game to start crashing again - and if it's absolutely certain the game has to run from the M&G .exe.

Also, I've seen people complaining on the sims2community forum that it uninstalls sims2 store items, can anyone verify it that is true or not?

I don't know about the Sims2 Store stuff, since I don't have any, but portraits still regenerate, and yes, you have to run from the M&G disk. I don't have the patch thingy to try to stop portraits from regenerating, since that wasn't an issue for me.

Well, then my having M&G purely rests in the hand of someone more awesome than me showing mercy and hacking that .exe.  Wink

The problem turns out to be a weirdness in the location of where I had installed AL.  The full explanation is in the topic I started.  SuckyROM may be a problem, but it wasn't mine.

OTOH, if the tech support people had actually asked a few questions about my installation the problem might have been solved faster and less painfully.

HarleyBarbie I looked at game copy world but dont see it. Can you post a direct link to the page its on?

Oh nevermind i found it. It's not a fixed exe though its a No-DVD/Fixed Image file requiring you to mount the image in Daemon tools then modifying your registry in
RegEdit from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Current ControlSet\Services\cdrom\Enum and change the SCSI\CdRom... data into IDE\CdRom...

Im not gonna do it. I'll wait till theres a NO CD exe.

Those "sweeping stairs" are true fail.  I assumed from the picture that they would come in a left and right version which you could put together to make the wide one in the pictures, if you had room.   But no, it is one staircase, and you cannot take off the middle rail!!!   All the other staircases let you take the rails off  Angry

Inge - I am a fan of the hiders on your site and have often wondered if there was a way to hide the stairs.

As for M&G, I purchased it the day it came out and decided to install it on a laptop that was getting a reformat anyway (so I could suffer through securom just to test the SP).  After installation, I got a message saying that I have uninstalled Apartment Life and if I continue all Apartments will be turned into normal houses and the families returned to the Sim Bin.

Oddly enough Peter just told me SimPE does the same (ie regards AL as having been uninstalled after telling it about M&G)

seeded means that there are sources to download from, other users who already have the file and let you download from their computer.
and please do not spread the link too fast, I still need to register a collector's account. Without one, only 10 downloads will be possible, which shall go to the community of awesome. Once I have found out how to get a collector's account and it is registered, feel free to share.

Is this the download with the 'securom free' option?  A no cd-crack, or is this just the download for free? (if so on the latter, thanks much!)
