More Awesome Than You!

Hey..
someone have the Seasons bonus to download?
I know the game has just got out today..


Thanks for the helpers :)

Note that The Pirate Bay now has Seasons listed, so it is no longer LIES AND PROPAGANDA. Thus, leaving this thread in the Podium for now.

My EB Games store (Brisbane, Oz) said they didn't have the bonus as it was only an American thing so I am unfortunately bonus-less.  >:( We still got pre-order bonuses for all of the other EPs.

My EB Games is getting it tomorrow regardless of what "Justin" tells me.  Their internet says so.

I got mine yesterday, but no lies and propaganda guide, and no bonus.
I have however started putting tips and screenies on my sites forum.

EB/GS didn't ship them until a little while ago, and haven't sent out emails with the code yet. When they get around to it, I'll share the raincoat if Blue doesn't already have it. What I want is the Target trellis.  :)

I want best buy's swing.

I have the raincoat code from EBGames, they gave me a slip with the code on it, but when I enter it at thesims2.ea.com/raincoat the bugger doesn't work. I wonder if I have to wait until tomorrow.

Most likely. Maybe that's why one CS rep for EB claimed that EA didn't allow them to ship it last night. I didn't believe it, though, I figured it was just usual operator bull.

Yeah.  *cough*"Justin!"*cough*

Eh, so screw 'em. Cancel the order, download the ARRficial version instead.

There's no way to cancel the order after they've processed it, the bastards (which they did Friday) but it is possible that I've been playing for the past 4 hours anyway.  ;)  I like to pay people for their work, but once I've done that, I'm not fanatical or anything.

Does this mean you now have a copy of Seasons?  :P

Nawp, not bothering, just working from the objects.package for now.

Curious.  Why not?  Because of the lack of non sucky SimPE type tool?  Or is this a sign that you may not install Seasons at all, or any other forthcoming Lies and Propaganda?

Ste

and where exactly did you get the objects.package?

Arrr... by whatever means necessary mate!  Arrr!!! ;D

Plus, what does it matter to you anyways.  I imagine you can't really play or enjoy the new features without all the other bits (the executable, etc.).

The Pirate Bay torrents appear to be empty. I got one working from torrentspy.

True
aw gross a woman in silent hill is having barbed wire up her ass!
Sorry I gotta go and barf that is disgusting.

Edit:
Torrentspy is too slow for me, doesn't bloody load

Silent Hill sucked ass.  :o

No, shoves barbed wire up peoples asses, rip it out and THEN sucks ass

I've still got my bucket

I was able to download the TPB torrent just fine, but they seem to all be down.  It didn't include a crack yet but I'm sure that later today someone will have a one out there with a crack much like Pets.

Windows Experience Index for The Sims 2:Seasons
3.0 - Recommended
2.0 - Minimum

I don't know if the other expansions included this information, but here it is anyway.  Won't do you much good if you don't know your WEI to begin with though.  To put these ratings in some sort of perspective for the XP users, Solitare has a minimum of 1.0 and recommended of 2.0.

Try torrentspy, it's a RELOADED one, they usually have cracks and the torrent is fine at the moment. I couldn't get the empty TPB ones.

TPB had a definite lag earlier. I know someone who wanted the non Reloaded one (he says they don't bother to update for the patch), so he queued the torrent, it was empty for 2-3 minutes, and then was fully seeded. It was strange.

Yes, the reloaded one has the crack- and a keygen.

It was strange, I've never seen a completely black torrent before. I won't worry about updates for the patch, I'm sure the game will arrive in the country by then.

Edit: Yeehaa - 82% downloaded. Too late to install and play tonight though. :(

That's exactly how I felt about it. This was just to keep me from bitching at everyone in site because EB and UPS had me in a mood.  :D Now, if UPS is afraid to drive 45 minutes in the rain to get packages from Oakland to San Jose this morning, like they were Monday and Tuesday, I won't feel like killing anyone.

hmm..

so someone have download of the bonus stuff?

Did you even READ the thread?  :P

Here, I can't even get the game til Friday. I'm not gonna pirate it, because it'll reduce the pleasure I get from sending my stepfather to walmart on payday to pick it up for me and being all excited when I come home from work to a brand new can of worms. \:D/

Mines coming tomorrow morning, but the bonus instructions won't arrive until Friday from what I've been told.  I'm getting the Swing, if they don't have it at the other place I'll share (so long as someone tells me how lol).

Mine's shipped from Amazon.com. I have a bonus key for a bathing suit? Oh cool...needed that I suppose.
I'll DL it and see just what it is after I get the game. Sometime between now and Monday. Coming US Mail...
says a lot doesn't it?

If y'all want this suit...I would be inclined to share this little gem. ::)

I have seen numerous posts on the BBS that the download codes aren't working right now. I'm so surprised. ::) The only thing I can think of is that the downloads aren't activated yet. Barring any problems I'll be getting Seasons from Target tomorrow. With the lovely garden trellis.  ;)

As far as I can ascertain, this is Omri-Chan's MO. (S)He posts a new thread about wanting the pre-order incentives, ignores the information presented in the thread, and continues to (rudely) demand them until someone posts a link. Was it the Family Fun Stuff ones last time or was it Glamour Life? I can't recall right now.

*Edited: It was Holiday Fun last time.

Ah, I thought the nick sounded vaguely familiar.

Yeah, I noticed that about Him/Her as well. Seems like the only time this person posts is to leech bonus items.

I'm always grateful when I come across said items for download somewhere, but it's not like I'm gonna go around DEMANDING them. ZOMG NEW EXPANSIONZ!!!! GIVE ME BONUS OR I'LL JIHAD YOU!  :D

Yep, just look at his/her past posts.  They are mostly demanding the incentives (FFS, Pets, Holiday, and now this).  If you are just patient, they always show up sooner or later.  :P

I just installed seasons no bonus's for me since I didn't preorder but I am now off to check out tne new game play.............I am crying over the loss of my hacks not lack of bonus's :P

Check here (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/ffs/seasons/hacks/) for Pescado Seasons compatible hacks

Damn.  Didn't Pets just come out?  Where did time go.  I haven't even played Pets yet.  Maybe I should stop downloading stuff for my game and actually try playing it for a change.

I was out shopping today at a Target with a Best right next to it. Neither had it. This thread has inspired me to try something new and put on my pirate hat. YAAAR! I'll be doing that tonight, mat(e)ys.

Swing set...  ;)

Thanks Tina I love ya.

No problem. Enjoy!

I didn't even have to pre-order to get it. Just dropped in at Best Buy, bought it,  and the sticker with the code was on the case.

awesome Tina,I appreciate the swing set ;)

Thanks very much Tina, that's the main one that I have been wanting.  :) I want to see how they put it together too, someone might be able to find a way to clone a new, custom one from this.

Great  I can put back in my Pescado Hacks. anyone know if Inge's hacks still work?

Thank you for the swing set :-)

Thank you for your kindness in sharing.

Here's all the preorder items
http://www.sendspace.com/file/pkvx0z

Tina G and dracine,  When I try to install the pre-order items I end up with empty/corrupt package files. :(  This is with both Sims2packinstaller and with the official sims 2 package installer.

I got that with the empty packages.errors with the raincoat, just on my own download.  :-\

Edit: At the link,the clothes error, the items don't, but install empty packages.  Methinks EA borked their own installer   ::)

My wife had to run to Best Buy to get a going-away present for someone she works with, and I happily tagged along, of course. :)  They were just unpacking Seasons -- didn't even have price stickers on them yet.  I'll probably wait until the weekend to install it, though, just to give the hack-masters some time.

Target had the display up last night, $5.00 off,  and they were already sold out. Nobody else in town had it. I got a rain check, now I have to decide whether to actually wait for more to come in at Target, or go elsewhere.

maxis is pathetic
They put the SAME code on every download and someone spotted the odd one out!

The bathing suit and raincoat files seem to be corrupted. :( The trellis and swing seem to be fine.

Stupid EA.  :(

wait until sunday when circuit city will have seasons for 17.99 they are also selling sims2 for 17.99 and glamour life for 7.99

Really?!   :o  I'm only able to get it if it's less than $30.   :D

non have them is showing up in the game..
why?

and someone have another download for the bonuses?

Do you even read the thread?? >:(

Go away, annoying assmonkey.

*laughs*

Assmonkey! That's funny!

*laughs more*

MaxoidDrea put up a  sticky  (http://bbs.thesims2.ea.com/community/bbs/messages.php?threadID=8e3389c79edbb4cf7e04efa4acca955b&directoryID=148&startRow=1&openItemID=item.148,root.1,item.43,item.104,item.41,item.127,item.23)this morning about the problem.

cant they do anything right? on the 1st day the codes wont work,now they work, and they are screwed in the ass   ::)
dumb isnt it?  :-\

For annoying assmonkeys and other interested folks: these are the package files and they should actually work (at least they do in my game).

 8)

 :P

 :-X

Thank you, birene, you are too kind.

thank you briene

Many thanks!

Thank you very much Briene and everyone else for the updates as it went along!

Yay! Thanks birene!  :)

Yea thanks! Finally got ones that work.  :D

All items are in my game and working  8)  Many, Many thanks birene  ;D

*pounds thanks button*  ;D

Thanks Birene  ;D

So it's true the bonus are bugged. I haven't tried mine yet in fear what may happen...  :-\ In the netherlands you could pre-order it with a few different kind of shops. And one had the swimmingsuit only and the other one you got the 3 other objects... Not really a heard choice there! lol
So now I got my 3 bonus objects here sitting on my pc wondering when they'll find a "solution" to this problem.

Greets all,
Ali

They reuploaded the files, so you can either go back and enter in the codes again and redownload them, or just download the ones birene attached here and put the unzipped files into your downloads folder. Just delete the ones you'd already downloaded.

Oh, thanks!  Very generous of you.

Amazon sent me an e-mail telling me that my pre-order code was below, but there was nothing there.  Now I won't have to try to get them to re-send it.

I still haven't had my code, so a big thanks for posting these (and for letting us download them from here too).

Thank you, Birene! ;D

 :D ROFL! The bathing suit and swing set are there, but not the trellis and raincoat.

Well, if you wanna get them from EA site, the code for threllis is:

AXSEAYUR

Ok, now I'm confused. The codes for the trellis are all the same?  :o How's this supposed to work with the "code can only be used 3 times" rule? I'm assuming the codes are the same for the other objects as well.

Can someone link me directly to where you enter said code? I'm not familiar with the EA site, and I'm lost.

Usually it's just the web address with the store name after the backslash, like:

http://thesims2.ea.com/bestbuy

http://thesims2.ea.com/target

Thank you so much for sharing Birene!  ;D

www.thesims2.com/trellis (http://www.thesims2.com/trellis)

Will redirect you to the site to use the above code, sorry I didn't include it.

I'll bet you a cookie that it's just a cookie. :P

bfseayur & khseayur worked for the swingset.
and ctseayur is the raincoat.
i never found the bathingsuit code the other codes were the samee except for the first 2 letters so i just ran through the alphabet a few times for them. the raincoat i got from an ex- that works at a gamestore. my store lost their codes

Thanks for the links, my code I got for pre-order does not work.

Could someone share the code for the above two bonuses???


Thanks!
Vanessa

Or you could just look through this thread and download all the bonuses from here....

Above and beyond the call of duty...

*headdesk* Siiiigh.

Anyway, thank you birene.  I couldn't even get the bonus I paid for since I lost the little sticky thing with the code on it, ::) so this is much appreciated.

Maybe they become invisible if they aren't on a silver platter.  ::)

Well, to be fair, those are links to Glamour Pack bonuses, not Seasons bonuses, and as far as I can recall, no one has posted Glamour Pack codes in this thread.

Maybe, but if you follow the links there is a way to find all the bonuses, ever. I can't remember what link I followed, I ended up on a forum that even shared the international downloads and whatnot.

http://ts2preorderpack.myfreeforum.org/index.php  has all the pre-order incentive stuff

Thanks for the link - I now have the swingset and the trellis.  :D
Are we waiting on Maxis to sort the other two out?

they didn't have the raincoat and bathingsuit? well you can get them at http://www.nectere.net/smf/index.php?topic=972.0
just delete the swingset and trellis packages from the zip I uploaded there

thanks sleepycat - the raincoat and swimsuit were empty packages according to Cleaninstaller

Yooo Hoooo....I read every line in the post......I specifically asked for the codes fo the two above....the other two were included in someones post.....but not the two from BestBuy and Target.....now...does that make sense...now...I'm banging my head on the desk....

Generalized Comprehension is for the average person!

@ nesschap - the items themselves are available from TLS as linked to by Sleepycat. If you want the codes then try morriganrane's suggestions of running through combinations of two letters followed by 'seayur'.

@ cwykes - have you been able to successfully d/load the items yet? If not pm me as I got them a few days ago with no problems.

And we expect better than average at MATY. That's why we're awesome.
