Title: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: Darth_Diclonius on 2009 August 02, 19:26:00 Hey everyone. I've had issues both times with patches due to having a modified file that shouldn't even matter to the update. But as we all know EA sucks and requires the most pointless of files to be original or the updater will throw a hissy fit. So this is where this minor compilation of most commonly modified files come in at. I've accumulated files from the base game, patch 1.2, and patch 1.3. I based these files off the most common errors when updating. So no matter where you are at in the patching process there should be files for you to update your game.
Here are three links and I'll be making a torrent around Wednesday so people can pick and choose which files they want. http://rapidshare.com/files/262966084/All_Sim_3_Backups.rar (http://rapidshare.com/files/262966084/All_Sim_3_Backups.rar) http://www.mediafire.com/file/5tzoizzuiqm/All Sim 3 Backups.rar (http://www.mediafire.com/file/5tzoizzuiqm/All Sim 3 Backups.rar) http://www.4shared.com/file/122449175/3bd40124/All_Sim_3_Backups.html (http://www.4shared.com/file/122449175/3bd40124/All_Sim_3_Backups.html) Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: Ambular on 2009 August 02, 23:17:09 This should prevent a good deal of frustration and botheration in the future. Baaaaaaaah.
Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: pbox on 2009 August 03, 03:51:32 That was a good idea! Here is a link to the Thanks, This is Great (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,12551.0.html) thread for your convenience -- I'm probably not the only one who feels an urge to post there now.
Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: hidethe_cutlery on 2009 August 03, 08:41:30 It'd have made more sense to upload an un-rar'd torrent so people can just download the files they need instead of the whole thing.

That is an idea that didn't even cross my mind. I'll do so when I get internet at my new place. I'm currently using satellite which is unreliable for torrenting plus there is a Fair Access Policy (Use to much bandwidth they slow you down to dialup speeds) but I'll be getting dsl on Wednesday so I'll seed a copy of this then. Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: pinkandgray on 2009 August 04, 01:47:07 can you please add the sims3launcher file also? would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but are these files for the US version or does it matter with these particular files? Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: shannon_elaine on 2009 August 04, 02:01:59 If this works to fix my issue I will bake you cookies or something!
Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: shannon_elaine on 2009 August 04, 02:33:33 No cookies. My supposed bad file isn't in there. Darn. :-\
Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: FzzyDog on 2009 August 05, 00:37:38 I haven't posted much here....been mostly just a reader. Unfortunately due to a download I made, which overwrote major files...... :'(......no complete backup....of course.....I found myself in the same situation as a lot of you are having. I noticed your post this evening and I can't thank you enough for posting the backup files.....sending kisses your way.
Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: Darth_Diclonius on 2009 August 05, 17:55:13 If you post what files you need and what patch number you currently have I'll make an update to include the file or at least upload it.
PS: Torrent is now unknown since AT&T is requiring me to bring in a modem, which they are sending to me in the mail, for them to setup. Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: pinkandgray on 2009 August 05, 23:27:29 Thanks, Darth. Could you please add the sims3launcher files for version 1.0.631.00001 and version 1.2.7.00001?

Is that some kind of bad joke? Are you implying you work for EA or that you are going to murder someone from EA? The launcher is evil! Avoid it! It does not have to be functioning in order to use custom content, S3 store items or otherwise. Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2009 August 08, 05:39:49 I think he's saying his frustration with EA tech support is going to drive him to stab them sooner or later.
Title: Re: Collection of Unedited and Backup Sims 3 Files Post by: Halloweenscorpio on 2009 August 09, 00:47:29 Exactly, I finally got it working though. I will be switching to an alternate method though, this is about the third time its given me trouble.
