HALP! I'm too stupid to get the University patch working!
« on: 2008 November 16, 12:04:51 »
THANKS THIS IS GREAT

It's all in the title. I'm reinstalling all my games(and already had plenty of problems with "oh but you gotta play IKEA instead! That's your latest expansion!") The patch keeps on asking me to insert the CD. I've tried burning the image on a DVD, keeping it mounted in Daemon, I've downloaded all three mini images available at game burn world and kept them mounted while trying to run the patch but then it just says it "couldn't copy from CD". Nothing has helped so far.

Am I doomed to play unpatched or is there a solution, you oh-so-witty people?  Undecided

They mean your original TS2 CDs, not your Uni or IKEA CDs.

Just tried that. It keeps on asking me to "insérer le CD 1 du jeu Les Sims 2 Academie". ("CD 1 of the game Sims 2 University")

Mini-Images are useless for patching because they contain no data. You will need an actual, full ISO that you can mount in Daemon. Get a fresh one from TPB if you don't have one that works.

Well, I already have an ISO and it looks like it's a working one since I managed to install the game with it but the patch just won't find it when I keep it mounted.
I mean, is there like a trick to it, something I'm doing wrong on Daemon tools or will I just need to get a completely different ISO and try again?

Okay, so how are you trying to do this? Install basegame, install Uni, patch Uni?

Install basegame -> patch it. Install uni -> patch it and so on until everything is back on it again. Is this unnecessary? Is patching my latest game enough?  Huh

I'm not seeing anything you're doing obviously WRONG, so I can only conclude that your Uni ISO is bad in some way.

Alright. I'll try downloading a new one.

Thanks a lot!  Kiss (and yes, I did just post a kiss-smiley but I'm a rather pretty girl so I guess it's all cool)

EDIT: Found another way, in case someone's got the same problem: Patched Nightlife instead since the Nightlife patch includes fixes for both EPs. Looks like the problem really was the ISO.

I'd recommend it anyway. You may think you're pretty, but I guarantee you won't be if the wife catches you.

Rather ugly girls, are they not allowed to post kiss-smilies?

Of course not. That would be even more gross. Everyone knows any form of romantic behavior on the part of ugly people is just revolting and discouraged in public.

I guess that's why they had to invent Second Life.

Maybe furries are a disguise for the people who are still really ugly, even in Second Life.  Cheesy

From the pics people have posted of it, in SL, even the pretty people are ugly.

I don't care how pretty you are, I don't want girls kissing on me. Boys, though...that's negotiable.
