There seems to be a crack out now. I got the Deluxe version and the crack from:
http://www.iptorrents.com/details.php?id=1175903http://www.iptorrents.com/details.php?id=1179324It says to create a fake Origin account and that if your sims take a shit then they stay pixilated until you restart the game.
The installation has a few extra steps:
"01. Put all files in game folder.
02. Create Origin acc (acc who will be just for cracked games), or use old fake acc.
03. Start Origin
04. Go to your hardrive...\The Sims 4\__Installer and install this:
\The Sims 4\__Installer\vc\vc2013\redist (i clicked and install the 2 files: vcredist_x86 and vcredist_x64)
and this
\The Sims 4\__Installer\vp6 (i clicked in 2 files here: vp6.reg and vp6install.exe)
04. Start the Game\bin\The.Sims.4.Launcher.exe
05. Have fun"
But so far it seems to work and my fake origin account hasn't been disabled yet.
Sometimes it works. Sometimes it just crashes randomly. I have no idea if it crashes because it is an EA game or if it is due to the crack. On a plus side I found out how to fix the blur thing: "go to the Sims 4 folder game/bin where you placed the Sims launcher and there's a file called ts4.par
Rename TS4.Par to match the launcher, which would be The.Sims.4.Launcher.par and the blur issue should work properly"
