> @LunarSimsGaming said: > What's so bad about securom? Seriously. Some people, including me, lost hard drive, cd-rom drives and even dvd-rom drives because of the same version that is on s2uc. I personally had 1 hard drive bricked, another MBR wiped beyond repair and had a cd and dvd drive as well as a lagit burner…
If you use the removal tool it will get rid of almost all of the registry entries and the dll files but soon as you start the game back up they are added right back in. As to the registry entries I had to use 2 other tools not by sony or securom to be able to get rid of it.
After I installed town life I found no bits of securom on my system. I am a paranoid person when it comes to SR. I had the master boot records 2 hard drives totally fubar'd and had a CD drive bricked. Also had to install my OS and all my software on 3 different occasions because of SR. I don't buy games with it SR on it…
It is the nasty version 7 of securom that is installed. Had loads of fun getting it off my system. It activates as soon as you launch the game, but not till then. v7 dlls add to system and reg entries with the null reg entries added. Before running the game I checked to see if SR was installed. Didn't have anything in the…
Didn't work. I know I have all my store content packages saved but would not want to have to sit and install them all, all over again. I hope they post a fix or give another package to download.
I am having the same issue in that the lot will not install at all. I would really hate to have to totally reinstall everything just to get this one set to install. There has to be a fix other than to start from scratch.
They still have the database where people used to register games on TheSims2.com. My own origin account was extrapolated from that when they made the switch.
OIFGU EIG has not worked at all since the digital install of Town Life. Have even uninstalled it, rebooted it, reinstalled CAW, reinstalled it in Origin Games, tried the batch approach, nothing works. I am thinking that they DON'T want CAW to work with EIG at all ever again!
At the beginning of the year EIG worked, now it wont work at all, not even with the batch file. With the batch file it will get to the end of the load and then just stay there for ever.
EIG doesn't work for me either. I have all the DISKs with only one digital stuff pack. I have the window turns blue and then nothing. It will not load EIG. I have tried the batch file and it gets stuck forever at the last tiny bit of the load. I even tried waiting 8 hours to see if it would load. Is there any solution or…
Soi far the only way I can get to Uni is if I delete the uni world files from the save. Mean that the uni world has to be recreated every time you sen someone to school.
I am having the same exact problem. I have had to get every single item as a separate download and install them individually. What is in the pack that is being flagged as needing premium content?
I just installed the Town Life download on a Windows 8.1 machine and I have no install of SecuRom on my system. Used the removal tool and 2 different registry checkers and no SecuRom. I too lost 2 drives of data back when the nasty version was out. I don't buy ANYTHING with SecuRom on it.
I too saw the information and tried to get the items and they were not as advertised. Pacific time and that is always 2 hours later then what it is where I live. It isn't even midnight on the 6th here yet which would have been not even 10pm pacific.
I just started getting into CAW. Was converting a town that I had made for old school D&D. Had 95% of the terrain sculpted, most of the roads laid, 2 very detailed lots (a light house and a pier) and now can't continue. :( I so want to be able to work on it again. Below is a version of it I made in the NWN2 editor
Raw Therapee does indeed work and it is not hard to use at all. Just load the image and click on the save icon and choose 16bit. Wiber http://www.ridgenet.net/~jslayton/software.html is a decent free map maker that will save height maps in 16bit.
Its been my observation that soon as you designate a lot with any of the new lot types you start to get the car pileups. Soon as I made a bar everything started to slow down and I swear the game is trying to fill every single available house to where if you want to move you have to kill them off or put down more space.
Back in the day you would buy a game and not have to p-atch it the day it came out. They actually tested games and had them tested before they were put on the shelf. Now if it is barely beta quality they sell it and just say they will patch it later. I would rather have a finished game then wait for a patch to play it or a…
I am having the same problem with my Vampire couple. I wonder if they tried to take vamps abroad during testing. No script error, just an empty sim list.
Twinbrooks looks like it is full of 3rd generation inbreeding where everyone wants to be a 🐸🐸🐸🐸 and hoe. And its buggy, my map icons never showup unless I exit in and out of edit town.
You should never have to turn off your AV program or you AWS programs to install anything. If you do that means what ever your installing is trying to take control of your computer in some way. I could understand installing as admin with the progs on, but not disabling them. Having those off can allow a program to install…
