Now when I try and play there is no loading screen,just the progress bar and the words going along the bottom of the screen you cant read them. Maybe I should try putting my mods and downloads back in and see if that helps.
Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: Capitaine Marie on 2012 August 31, 20:40:45 The patch also adds the ability to view the whole Sims 3 Store in-game -- and it's NOT optional. DNW. >:( More details at SimsVIP, here (http://simsvip.com) (scroll down).
Hopefully, Pes will have a fix for this soon. Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: witch on 2012 August 31, 21:07:10 So is the game still playable if it can't talk to the internet, as mine can't?
Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: RebelRed on 2012 August 31, 21:33:33 Did anyone tell Pes there is a patch this time?
Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: Roobs on 2012 August 31, 22:04:23 The patch also adds the ability to view the whole Sims 3 Store in-game -- and it's NOT optional. DNW. >:( More details at SimsVIP, here (http://simsvip.com) (scroll down). Well it kinda is optional. The button on the right of the Buy Mode panel toggles Store Mode on or off. When it's off, you won't see any store shit. It's exactly the same as before except for the button itself. You can't disable the button's presence, but hiding it with a mod should be trivial to do.Hopefully, Pes will have a fix for this soon. Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: witch on 2012 August 31, 22:57:13 Did anyone tell Pes there is a patch this time?

Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: Capitaine Marie on 2012 August 31, 23:48:55 Did anyone tell Pes there is a patch this time? I just did, so he has no excuse. ;D Thankees. I always get antsy waiting for an AM update. I feel like I did as a kid riding in the car: "Are we there yet, Daddy? Why aren't we there yet?! DAD!!" Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: Ambular on 2012 September 01, 01:36:59 Waiting to see what this one breaks and whether the incremental or the cumulative version is safer...

by: J. M. Pescado on 2012 September 01, 05:50:02 Patch is currently digesting. Expect test version by morning at latest.
Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: claudiasharon on 2012 September 01, 07:15:03 I can't seem to patch, I keep getting the same error. Using the cumulative patch I get this error:
(http://i49.tinypic.com/f1drhv.png) Using the incremental I just get "file not found". Wtf does this mean? Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: unknownlUser on 2012 September 01, 07:52:37 It means : don't use the evil Launcher!
Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: claudiasharon on 2012 September 01, 07:54:51 I didn't that's the cumulative patch. Which I downloaded from here. Then I tried it from crinrict's site. Still gives me the same error.
Oh and I tried searching on this issue and did what I found to solve the issue and I'm still getting the same error. Now I'm getting a new error, getting past the first error though. I have a legit copy of the game so there's no reason for this error. (http://i50.tinypic.com/i3t3e1.png) Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: unknownlUser on 2012 September 01, 08:08:06 That's too damn bad. Boo Hoo. A reinstall is so damn difficult?
I'd first test if the download destination is the culprit ("the medium is corrupted"). Download to another partition or harddrive. If not, you have a fun uninstall ahead of you. If the medium is the Sims 3 install itself, may mean you have a failing HDD. Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: claudiasharon on 2012 September 01, 08:09:33 Tried that already still didn't work.
Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: genecyst on 2012 September 01, 09:27:14 Looks to me like you've applied a no cd crack. You should have backed up the original files before appying such crack. Now you get the joy of reinstalling the whole game.
Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2012 September 01, 11:07:39 For those of you wondering why it took this long to post the test version, the answer is that apparently, EAxis has tried to sabotage us.
Here's what happened: For some UTTERLY BAFFLING reason, even when isolated by itself and therefore totally inert, the AwesomeMod dll would crash the game on load. Now, you'd think, that, in and of itself, would just be my lousy code, except for one interesting wrinkle: Simply changing the NAME of the DLL made it stop. No actual CODE was changed, just the name. Why would THIS make it suddenly work perfectly again? The only logical answer I can think of is deliberate sabotage. Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: claudiasharon on 2012 September 01, 11:40:45 Looks to me like you've applied a no cd crack. You should have backed up the original files before appying such crack. Now you get the joy of reinstalling the whole game. Wrong answer. I don't use no cd cracks, I don't need them. (Awesomemod or NRaas anyone?) And I'm smart enough to remove stuff before patching. So no, it is not a crack. I still don't know why it isn't working. So I'm reinstalling anyways since no one seems to have an answer, and all the answers are not helping. Hopefully that will work if not then I'll just wait until the game comes out and it auto patches itself. Because that makes some sort of sense. Not really. But whatever. Will find out soon enough. Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2012 September 01, 13:18:22 CRC error means your download is damaged. Possible causes: Firewall malfunction, bad download, or failing hard drive.
Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: claudiasharon on 2012 September 01, 14:34:42 I tried it on a different hard drive, still had the same issue. Downloaded it at least 10 times now. Did a complete reinstall of the game and am still having the same issue.
Edit: I tried the incremental patch again and still got an invalid file found error. Cumulative patch gives the crc error. All the other patches installed just fine when I did my reinstall, it's just this one that isn't working.

Aren't they always? I don't remember the last time EAxis released a patch that wasn't broken in some way. Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: freckles on 2012 September 01, 19:57:11 Yet again a patch that is meant to fix something in the game breaks the game.
The last time I had to uninstall everything because the load screen wasn't there,just the progress bar. This time the same thing,I have uninstalled everything,taken out mods and all downloads,re installed without mods or downloads,I then install the new test version of AM and still I get no load screen only the progress bar. So now I have to uninstall everything and start again without the fucked up new patch. Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: kissing_toast on 2012 September 01, 20:13:06 You should get by by just reinstalling the base game. I'll be waiting till I actually get SN before I deal with the new patch. I might be speshul since I've never had problems patching.

Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: freckles on 2012 September 02, 12:00:42 I installed just the base game,it works,but it is running realy slow. I'll try installing the rest of the packs as I couldn't do it last night as it was far too late.
Edit: Just to say everything is working after I installed base game and expansion packs. All I have to do now is install all my CC. Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: cobainsquirrel on 2012 September 02, 18:34:16 Test version crashes for me as soon as I load a save. No CC.

Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: Naiad on 2012 September 04, 06:45:52 Try downloading from beta: NO link Yo, dipshit, the test version isn't made widely publicly available for a reason. I think having the link posted once may be enough. And really, given that people usually need to be told to look 3 posts above theirs for a fix, with some luck nobody will notice who didn't know already. Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: CLmeow on 2012 September 08, 23:55:39 I am thinking I will wait to download the new patch and the newest AM until I get SN. I have to wait till next month for it (my birthday is Sept 28 and a friend said he'd buy it for me after he gets paid on Oct 3 to get it for me for my birthday). I might buy it myself if he's playing poor at that time rofl.
If possible, I will wait till then to update AM too, unless it expires before then. I will like a button or something to get rid of the store sales crap in my game as I refuse to DL Origin and this just bugs me as I keep trying to click the first links on my item lists. I have not done so yet, but if I get tired and am playing I might and then my game might crash (I play on my laptop, not my great desktop because I have nothing to sit on for my desktop YET). I also play offline, always. I keep my laptop linked to the web as sometimes I need to drop to desktop and check something here or elsewhere on the web. I am STILL troubleshooting problems I am having (such as chairs snapping to the middle of the tables and not to the sides where they belong). I am sure I can get to the troubles myself so have not asked, but if I need to ask I know where to go.

Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: Ambular on 2012 September 09, 01:15:49 Is it a stupid question to ask when the updated Awesomemod will be up and running with 1.38? Word of God as of an hour or so ago was "No idea. Until Poofs stops reporting anything broken, I guess." Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: youarehome on 2012 September 09, 01:17:07 Should have got my search on.
Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: wizard_merlin on 2012 September 09, 18:02:21 I will like a button or something to get rid of the store sales crap in my game as I refuse to DL Origin and this just bugs me as I keep trying to click the first links on my item lists. Not sure what you're babbling on about here, but the store crap button doesn't bother me, I just ignore it, then search through the categories for the items I want, just as I did pre 1.38 and SN. No bugging for a non-existent Origin or anything. You must be doing something weird to be getting bugged about Origin all the time. On a different note, my game seems alot more stable with 1.38 and SN than it was before. Is it possible that EAxis managed to somehow get something right, even if it was only by accident? Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: freckles on 2012 September 09, 19:54:21 I don't know if it's my computer or the patch but when I try and play the sims 3 super natural it takes almost two hours to load the world screen and then when I build anything it slows down to a grinding hault. I have tried to run the game without CC and any mods that I have,but it makes no difference.

Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: freckles on 2012 September 28, 11:04:23 Try the SuperPatcher instead. Now waiting to see if 1.39 broke anything else. I did try that,with no luck. Looks like I will have to reinstall again. I'm getting a bit pissed off with this now. Title: Re: TS3 Patch 1.38 Post by: gamegame on 2012 September 28, 11:08:29 Whoops i misread Cumulative as Incremental.
