Official Sims 2 Thread

Ok. I've followed this thread to the very end and now have heaps of things to try... but my problem is, I can't even install the game from the backups.. Cant transfer errors all the time. I'm getting pretty sick of typing in the code.

Any ideas?

Used Alcohol 120 to make copies and have tried burning the files to disk but same thing - and it's never the same file that it has problems transfering.

mandy...it's a bad copy.try first to install from original.if it plays then it's a bad copy

I backed my copy with Clone CD and it didn't give me any issues...give it a shot.

First, make the image and save to the HD, then burn it onto a blank disc. I did it that way and its working well.

No Problem!
Just use your favorite Hex Editor. Open Sims2.exe and search for the hex-value 63656E736F72, replace them all with 63656E733330 and your done!

Have fun with it!

Doesn't work. Any other ideas?

This money crack works perfectly in my winxp installation... but on my GF's win98 SE machine it doesnt... It still prompts me to insert correct CD/DVD. Any idea why?

Have you replaced all? There are 4 places where you have to do this in the file! (that's what the bm.exe does!)
If you do it, it works definetly!

So, I have a ISO of DVD,
I install the game,crack(of Money in GCW), but when I try to start the game i read a message (In portuguese) "Foi indentificado um software de emulacao de CD/DVD. Desative e reinicie o jogo."
In english than says " It was identified a software of emulation of CD/DVD. it Disables and restart the game."

Anybody can help me ?


*Edited: Error of english (Sorry)

Has anyone taken the working MONEY crack one step further and No-CD'd it yet? For those of us who can't get past the virtual drive error?

Hi Guys (esp Tipstaff),

Its really great to know that there ARE people that actually takes the time and patience to work out cracks that work and continue to seek it out to the max.

However, i must say that i have read each and every thread on this topic. I do not have a burner (and don't ask me to get one cause i can't afford it yet). So, i could'nt do the stuff that Tipstaff that has advice on the burning in the the Sims2_1 title and run thingie.

How can i get the build mode and all other stuff working correctly with just the Latest Money patch (erm MULTI CD / DVD or something as posted by Tipstaff) - and also the available 000001.TMP and 000002.TMP files ?

REgards,

I hope it is all right to post this! So if I made a mistake (Sorry). I just want to say THANK YOU!! To all of you for having the information on this site. Have the original disks saved and using a burned copy to play. Wish I could contribute something important, but I can't. Well keep up the good work on an awsome site.
Later!
