Yeah, I don't have the d3dx9_31.dll anymore. Guess I'll reinstall then.

I'm having trouble updating the latest patch for LN.

As I recall it started when updating AM. When starting TS3 I got a message saying: "..unofficial game modification that does not match your current version of the sims 3. ..". It suggested I quit game. (When ignoring this, AM acctualy worked fine in game without any crashes).

In the thread "Stupid Sims 3 patch", Mosquito seemed to have the same problem (but with a diffrent patch). Madame Mim suggested TS3 patch Downloader. I used it but the latest patch for LN still failed to install (to 6.1.11 from 6.0.81), with message "Invalid file found". I've tried patching sevral times with CC and without, lacking success.

From what I can gather, Mosquito decided to reinstall the game. Is there no other option that I sould try first?

My Late Night game isn't cracked. I've replaced the Resource file in Program Files and created a shortcut to the TS3EP03 app, nothing else.

What's causing the patch to fail and can I fix it?

Aw shucks, thank you for clearing that up.

Thank you! And yes I'm ESL.

I apologize in advance for my being a n00b. I find this forum to be quite alluring and therefor I'm trying to explore it best I can, yet some things are still non mistakably, unclear.

My question is first of all if there is already an existing mod that reduces the chance of pregnancy when trying for baby TS3? And Secondly if there is a possibility of creating one, if the answer to the first question is "no".

I've been searching but haven't been able to find the answer myself.
Thanks for your time!
