THANKS THIS IS GREAT

The readme file says "If the problem keeps occuring, this may be a permanent issue. Please ask for support in the thread at MATY."
Oops, I guess I should immediately remove that line or make it more noob-friendly.

I don't think the people here care about politeness. At least I do not. Certainly not about the smiley!

I don't know what makes you think I DON'T EVEN KNOW how to update/install AM,
Well, it seemed quite obvious to me:
aside the fact that AwesomeMod isn't working! I can see that because I typed "showconfig" but it doesn't work, and the sliders limit is not increased.

Quote
I suppose is because I haven't upgrade with the .bat file yet...
To reply to this, this updater is not a requirement for AwesomeMod. It's merely an optional utility for people with at least a few brain cells.
If AwesomeMod is not working after you 'installed' (ahem) it, it's your own fault and you should search or just give up entirely.

I was originally receiving ERROR 11, I'm using an external, thought I changed all accordingly, and now I'm getting ERROR 9.
I've been reading the threads and this is the final step that I seem to be getting caught up on.
Using: 7, x64, World Adventures & Ambitions, all SP, game v7.3.2.011031, updater v2.6.1.148.
Game will not load/start.  Gives ERROR 9 and will not continue.
**Now I've tried tweaking some more and I can't get it to recognize the locale, now receiving ERROR 3.
***Now ERROR 5!

****Found my own way in tweaking some lines.  Thanks to SFT-Rex's Code!

Hello, I was trying to use the updater to install AwesomeMod, and got an Error Code 4. According to the Readme, I should be reporting this to the forums.

I'm guessing it's got a problem with the updater because my version of Sims 3 is Steam based rather than in the normal directory? If so, not a biggie, I'm running AwesomeMod fine without the updater. Just a little less convienient (aka, I have to do work and not be lazy Sad Tongue ). Just thought I'd mention it, in case anyone else comes along to complain.  Smiley

edit: Well, it was working. Now it seems not to be. Or maybe it never was. Either way, I'm an idiot... Think I'll leave off of trying to get this to work for now, little too drunk to want to mess around with this all.

There is little to NO support for steam.  If I remember correctly, the updater is NOT steam compatible.

Glad you figured it out.
Could you perhaps send me your modified .bat file? There might be some usefulness for me in it.

Also, the next version will, if it can't download the online versions master file, use the most recent locally-stored versions file.

If I remember correctly, the updater is NOT steam compatible.
That is right. It clearly says so in the first post
Steam version of TS3 is not officially supported!

I keep having the error 1. The only answer to this I saw was to use the newest uploader, and that is what I am using. What should I do?

Yep. The first time I executed the batch file, it seemed normal. Then nothing happened, and after a while I ran it again and since then, it's been giving me that problem.

I've looked and I couldn't find/think of anything that could cause that, other than you doing it wrong.

What OS are you using? Could you click on Start, type 'cmd', press enter, type 'wget', and press enter?
Does it recognize the command?

Hey, this started happening a little while ago. I have no idea what is causing it (I'm pretty sure it's the FPS limiter?) but sometimes (it's completely random too) when I boot up The Sims 3 there's a FPS display in the top left hand corner. It's green text, and like I said it's completely random that it appears. It doesn't stop anything from working or anything like that, it's just that because the text is both large and bright it gets a little distracting to have it up there. Does anyone know why it's doing that?

After installing the Updater it starts my game then about five minutes later the game crashes. I set up DEP for the game prior to updater do I need to change DEP for the Updater or could this be a separate issue. I followed all the instructions on the ReadMe file and unzipped the files to the correct folder (C/Windows) and the updater to the desktop.
Okay never mind found the issue had TS3W file added to bin, but not added to DEP setting added it to DEP and it works.

Updated to v2.7.1 (v2.7.1.170)

This version automatically downloads the 1.24 final version of AM if necessary.
This is important for people who want to stay on 1.24 because 1.26 breaks CC, store content and whatnot.

Hopefully this won't count as necromancy.

Since updating Awesomemod to the 1.29 patch via the updater (and then patching my game in turn), the Awesomemod Updater's been acting up. Whenever I click on the .bat file or somehow use it in another program (like CC Magic), it's given me a message I've never seen before, asking that I change my TS3 shortcut so that it points to the updater.bat file. It says I'll never see the message again, yet it comes up each time I try to boot Sims 3 using the updater.

Also, it thinks that the latest version of Awesomemod does not match the game's patch, thus refuses to start.

This has been working perfectly for me, until the last time I played when AM told me I had an incompatible core mod.

Now the updater says that the current AM version is not compatible with my currrent TS3 version.

I used option 1 to check if the latest AM was compatible with my game, the result was "there is currently no AM test version available".

Updater will not start the game.

Since basbas normally updates the first post in the thread when he updates the launcher, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that it is not yet updated for the most recent patch. I manually downloaded the most recent AM and am working fine with the 1.29 patch.

ETA: Assuming your experience matches mine, you should be able to launch the game using the 3booter batch file that the updater creates in your Sims 3 install folder.

THANKS THIS IS GREAT

First off, your registration questions are painful.

Now. I downloaded the latest updater...

Placed the 3 files (extracted properly) to C:/Windows

Error code 1........

my updater (the one that gives the error code) is on my Desktop
C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\Awesome

I have the sims 3 and every upgrade/pack/expansion upto and including pets (I cant get any mods to work on pets btw... They worked with normal sims3... and I know some need to be updated thats why I want this updater!!!)

the Awesome mod is here
C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages

My mods folder exists of:
DCCache - folder
Packages - Folder
irunin.dat
irunin.xml
Resourrce.cfg 6/6/2010 < same as used for sims 3 - no expansions - I probably need a new one of these.


I just reinstalled the sims 3 after like... forever because I have the expansions now... and I want awesome mod more than any other mod xD

Error code 1 says to place the wget in the C:/Windows directory...

and its in C:\Windows

Tried running the updater as admin, it did Squat... I'm on Windows 7

The updater has been working with the latest patch since the day after it was released. Other than that, nothing was changed. If it doesn't work while it did before, you are doing something wrong.

To CC Magic users:
Keep in mind that CC Magic merges package files into big package files. This makes the updater unable to find awesome.package. You should exclude awesome.package from your 'merge list'. If it still doesn't work, meh.

I figured out my problem

"the Awesome mod is here
C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages"

My problem was I was trying to install the mods the OLD WAY... since I haven't played the Sims for 2 years...

Once I put them in the C:\Users\Ibcrootbeer\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 the mod loaded fine...

BUT, still can't use the updater.

Once again, for emphasis, the OLD WAYTM works just fine. I use it. YOU DID IT WRONG.
