Direct Downloads for Manual Patching (Official EA patches)

thegrump

Nichaedemus, what about the other people who want to patch the game manually?

I have World Adventures patched to 2.6.11.005001 and the download you provided didn't allow me to install the patch. It seems to me that I have to uninstall the entire Expansion pack, install it from scratch and then apply the patch. So I'm going to put links to the official EA patch for those with 1/11/2.6/3.2. The same goes to the Base game and High-End Loft Stuff.

Hope you don't mind.

For those who want to install offline or unable to use EADM, use the links below:

Hi,

Thanks for posting that, Thegrump! For a complete patch list, you can check out the following thread for official EA download links for the manual incremental updates:

http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/188505.page
(Thanks goes to Sassy0984 for compiling the list!)

We highly recommend that you bookmark the linked thread, since it will be updated as new game updates are released.

Note that the standalone patches are self executable, meaning you can simply download them to your Windows desktop and run the setup installers directly. Other than ensuring that the game and launcher are not running, no further setup is required.

If incremental patching does not work for some reason, you can use a standalone cumulative patch for the base game and expansion pack(s). Official EA Download Links for cumulative manual updates can be found in the following sticky thread:

http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/175477.page

Note that using a cumulative patch from the list will require that you uninstall and reinstall your game(s) first.
