There really isn't a specific section for this, because it's not really an issue regarding the game and we don't really need to cover it at length.

Ugh, this is terrible. ETA: 2 years.

I'm almost tempted to spend money on this. Almost. I'm too cheap to ever actually do it though.

Same. My ETA keeps jumping from 2 years to 1 week and back. I would buy the game if I had the money. I usually do, but until I can afford it, I'm stuck with torrents. Still, by the time it actually downloads, I may have the money to buy a copy.

Give it time to get more seeders and stuff. It's been out for less than a day.

I'm waiting a bit anyway, but question:

Is the Vitality release usually "compatible" with Reloaded? I own the base game, but I do not have the money to go out and buy WA or Ambitions yet (though I am obsessed with having boxes and manuals for games, so soon enough). I got the Reloaded WA...but it was SKU2 when my legit Sims 3 was SKU1. So I had to download the reloaded Sims 3, too.

Will the Vitality one be SKU2 or SKU1? Is it Multi language and therefore whatever, or is it the US version or whatever? <_<

I dont want to waste the space and bandwidth.

Why wouldn't the release be compatible with the Reloaded release? It's just gamefiles.

I assume the Vitality release is SKU1, since the game won't be out in Europe until Friday.

All you need to do if it doesn't install is edit the registry to 'fake' your region. Worked fine for my legit Sims 3 and downloaded WA/HELS, will see in about 15mins how it works here.

Editing the game region is super easy.

Did anyone know that Ambitions adds the ability to edit, add and remove lots or town items to your neighborhoods from the edit town menu? (Finally.)

Well, I initially faked my WA download into thinking it was SKU 1, but even then, only the SKU 2 patches worked for it.

So I was using SKU 1 patches (ending in .1) for The Sims 3, but SKU 2 patches (ending in .2) for WA, and I had to manually download every patch because of it, and eventually I broke it and got sick of it. Maybe it would be easier with just editing ambitions. Actually, I'm not even sure what SKU the ones I have are listed as.

If it is "just game files" then it might work. Gotta wait for the awesomemod update anyway. Definitely not reinstalling.

Huh? I have WA and the Base Game on two different regions too, but I just changed the WA region to the same as the base game (USA I think) and never changed it back. USA patches work on both of them. I've never had to change the region to install a patch.

Remember, you need to buy Ambitions to use this new feature that should have been in the game at release!

I must've done something wrong then.

Also, uh, I think Town Editing will be in the next major patch. Quite a few big features of Ambitions, just like WA, will be patched.

Well, mine said ETA was 14 hours just 20 minutes ago, but now it's saying around 8 hours, and it seems to be staying at a consistent speed now. I guess it doesn't really matter anyway since I'm not planning on installing it until AM is compatible.

Claeric, the region SKU can be changed easily. I bought the base game, so it's region 1, but both WA and HELS are the RELOADED releases and they're region 2. All I had to do to install them is modify the SKU for the base game from 1 to 2. I changed it back afterwards. I now get region 1 patches for the base game and region 2 patches for WA. It all works fine for me.

Well, that's the thing, I don't want to have to get the patches manually. I loooooove the convenience of just using the launcher. I guess I'll just wait for the Reloaded version (though I dont know a thing about how these "releases" work, so I dunno how long that'll be). Not like downloading will be an issue of speed, that is where private sites come in. :3 Blackcats ftmfw.

There will not be a reloaded release of Ambitions. Vitality got to it first.

Seems like EA finally decided to make a standard disk for Sims 3: Ambitions. I'm installing it now (I got the ISO off Usenet).

I just have The Sims 3 legit, and I can use online features.

I've seen Reloaded and vitality of things, but is that really how they work? The first one to do it is the only one and the other goes "oh well"?

I am not familiar with this stuff.

The Scene tends to be about who gets it and cracks correctly it first. It's sort of a race. The losers are "nuked", meaning their releases are pulled from official circulation, although if the releases are close, nuked releases may hang around for a bit, particularly if it turns out that the first rusher cracked it wrong and the second one is therefore "Proper". This part doesn't really concern us since cracking TS3 is unnecessary, though.

The first group to do a release on the scene is the only release, unless the release is nuked (it has issues) then another group can snatch it up.


Ambitions is SKU region 1, btw. skuregion.txt reads

GameVersion = 4.0.87.006001
Code:0.RL-2.0.104
Asset:1.ep2-0.rl.5
Thumbnails:1.Thumbnailep2.dl.127

But someone just said it was an all-in-one disc, like a multi release, doesn't that mean the SKU will be whatever SKU your existing installation is?

AGH I am so confused. Whatever. My ETA is 4 hours, 5 min. That's all I know.

RELOADED won't proper ViTALiTY's release since it does not have any reason to nuke it from the scene.
You can expect a proper when a initial release don't work properly as it should.

About Regions.
The installer automatically updates it to your current region.
It's included inside the ISO at Support\Updates or Support\UpdatesMAC.

The "real" size of this expansion is only 2.5 Gb, add 2.12 Gb of updates and you have this release.

MAC Updates are wayyy big.

2 days ago I found this shelved at my local hick-town Target store.  They refused my purchase at the register, now they lose a sale.  Anyone else finding this marketing strategy not making sense?

Alright, THAT'S what I needed to know- the installer will auto-detect my installed SKU and fix it for me. Then everything is good once AM is updated. Huzzah! Can't wait to add lots to Sunset Valley. Anyone know if we can remove/change existing lots?

My ETA dropped down to infinity though. ;-; Pretty rare for a Blackcats download.

I have legit base and WA.
I think they do. If you want to update that way you just have to replace the cracked .exe/tslhost.dll with the original copies and then find a no-CD patch for the new version.

I pulled this off a private tracker this morning and the new features seem pretty neat. I was disappointed with the dearth of new clothes (more varieties of emo hair though  Roll Eyes ), but the build mode stuff makes up for it. Also, it seems deadset on installing the EA Download Manager ... it tried forcing itself on my computer (along with Adobe AIR) when I first installed Ambitions, tried to get me to install it again after the installation, and now every time I open the launcher I get an error message. Game still works, so whatever.
