:? I just bought the digital download for Sims 3 Generations... and I can't install it! And apparently there are no refunds for digital downloads... Help pleeease!
digital download tells you to patch from the launcher-launcher doesnt recognise that the game needs patching (obviously, generations isnt installed yet)
Currently downloading manual patch (rather large)hopefully game will allow it without installation of generations....
Will report back with an update and whether or not extra assistance is needed.
