sim in mailbox

[notv]

I had this happen when I did a clean install and patching. For me it turned out to be a bad no-cd patch. I got a new one and it hasn't happened since. So if you are using one you may want to try a different one. Good luck.

IIRC, Awesomemod can be configured to remove the need for a no-cd patch. Just enable "disable cd check."

"can be configured", "should be configured" - we can bandy the semantics, I suppose.  In any case, this is true.

Also, does anyone else look at the "sim in mailbox" pics and think of this? : http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,12004.0.html

Help! I'm new to SIMS 3 and I really really want to play the game, however, as soon as I move in to a household, my sim gets stuck in the mailbox and when I buy something, the game crashes. I can't even open my OPTIONS menu I'm on an iMac which meets all the requirements. It seems like it's a problem related to the latest 1.4 patch, or so I thought.

Does anyone have a working solution to this? Please point me to the right direction, anyone.. TIA!

Did you READ THE FAQ? Because it's hard to take you seriously when you're typing in verrah youneeque speshal colourz. It makes me want to start shouting.

Also, of the possible fixes mentioned in this thread, what have you tried? My telepathy device seems borked today.

^ Oh sorry about that. I've been trying everything, jumping from forum to forum to find any solution but nothing works.
So how did the guys who had the same problem get theirs fixed? I'm feeling a lil bit desperate.

I'm hoping the thread started will post how they solve their dilemma.

It's easy: Stop using old No-CD with updated Arr'd software. Just use the legit TS3.exe and leave the No-CD to AwesomeMod.
