Is it possible to play with all the other expansions? If so, how?

kai 2023-11-20 -2 points

is this the game to play it?

zephyr 2023-11-07 -2 points

I played around with these files for an hour (it worked at first but after i added the rest of the expansions it seems to have messed my files up and corrupted the game) I can verify that I googled an internet archive version...it installed with a custom launcher and runs perfectly fine. No keys, no cracks, no multiple installations:

I love the game play it on the PC but wanted to comment still because i love the sims 2 the one i play all the time but if you want to download the game just download it then patch it and also download the Nocd which what that does is allow you to bypass the disc check so you can play the game works with fifa manager but get the serial key so the game will install for you Download and Install get the Patch then get the NOCD that will work Use WinCDEmu that's the simple disc image you can get works with me but i don't need to download this game because i got the full version on the PC with the actual Disc and Case LOL Fred if i get told off i will pin this on you for making me give advice to these people If the game does not work just play some FIFA instead lol

So, I was told to not run the program at a certain time or an error will occur, does anyone have an idea to fix it? I accidentally did click the 'run game' option too early.

I have tried to get this thing working, but EVERY SINGLE TIME I try to run the game, even with the things applied, It still says "Please insert the correct DVD-ROM". Someone has a solution without the DLC?

Trying to install the gamebase, after I select the directory the app says "Do you want to exir the installation process?". This happens when I select Next and just won't do anything. Do you guys know what could I be doing wrong?

JimsofGlossop 2023-01-08 1 point

Doesn't work.

Confused 2023-01-02 1 point

I have tried following all the steps, to the best of my understanding... I have managed to install the game, and did get around the 'this app is blocked' thing, trying to install Mansion&Garden... But I can't find the code for M&G anywhere, the instructions for locating the code are just baffling, there are no such directories. Now I did locate some key that seemed to belong to the expansion pack, but it was too short. If it was the right code to begin with, it was missing the entire last segment of it. I tried using the code for the game itself, but obviously it didn't work. Any help would be much appreciated.

The patch file isn't working, even it requests I insert a CD even after I replace the exe file with the one from the NoCD version. Both versions of the NoCD exe file didn't work for me.

Since someone asked how to extract files: right-click on zip-folder and find "7-Zip" or "WinZip" (or sth else, depending on what programme you have for it, I use 7-Zip) and click "extract files" in the dropdown menu and follow the guide. Hope this helps!

Llost 2022-07-03 3 points

How do I apply the patches? Everyone just says to run them patch, but when I click on the .exe files I get the message that I need a CD... sry if this is mby a dumb question, I'm not very experienced with this stuff...

hello, find the sims 2 CD 4 iso here:

mount this, and it will allow you to download the patch—the download speed is a little slow, but it works! :)

Hi, where's the code fill for mansion and garden stuff?

skitty 2021-08-24 1 point

I found a fix for ''please insert CD-ROM, select ok and restart application. Download this

http://www.mediafire.com/file/mldashmdcwlnjnd/Sims2.exe/file

And go to C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSBin

copy & paste, select replace
(You can also try to run it as administrator )

Wilsonnextdoor 2021-08-21 1 point

It is important to PAY ATTENTION to the following steps OR the sims 2 might not work.
Please note the Sims 2 is an older game so it might not work on computer but you can always try. ;)

Step 1, Run the "AutoRun" to start the installation proces (inside the Gamedata folder).

Step 2, When the game asks about the CD serial fill in the code inside the CD Keycode folder.

Step 3, After the Basegame has been installed do NOT boot up de game yet or it will not work. The game will ask you to insert the original CD.
You'll also need to Patch the game or you will not be able to install expansion packs and stuff packs. Inside the CD Keycode folder you can find the patch.

Step 4, Please install the last Stuffpack "Mansion and Garden Stuff" the same way as the last 3 steps.

Step 5, When te "Mansion and Garden Stuff" is installed try to search for the installation folder on your drive.
In most cases C:- Program Files- EA games- The Sims 2. Now open the TS Bin forlder off "Mansion and Garden Stuff".

Step 6, Now in the M&GS CD keycode folder there is ann .exe called "Sims2EP9". You will need to copy this to the TS Bin folder
you just found in Step 5 and replace it.

Step 7, Delete the sims 2 shortcuts created on your desktop and make one from the Sims2EP9 one.
You can now try to boot up the Sims 2. If it is not working I'M sorry my dear but try retracing step 5 and 6.

If it works and you can start to play you did it right and can install the other SP and EP's
Well done and enjoy playing the Sims 2.

The patch and no CD downloads don't do anything. They both just say to "insert CD" and won't run.

Lexie 2021-05-20 0 point

Anyone figure out what to do? I've installed the base game, inserted the keycode on the back, and installed the patch. Now it says to insert a CD which was not included in the original download nor the patch...

I don't know where to put the patch for the base game. I was able to download one stuff pack before realizing this was how I was supposed to do it so I deleted all the EPs I had downloaded already. I tried to copy the Patch for the base game into the Sims 2 folder but it said I didn't have enough memory. I have over 20 GB free on my PC. I was so excited to find Sims 2 for free as I only grew up playing Sims 3. Any help would be appreciated. I know how to download custom content and mods but this is confusing me somehow.

Works amazing if you do it well. If the resolution is stuck at 800X600 Then this should help, simsvip.com/2014/07/20/the-sims-2-ultimate-collection-increase-resolution-guide/ ! In step one, you'd like to change what it says with this: C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\The Sims 2 Mansions and Garden Stuff\TSData\Res\Config/Graphics Rules.sgr! And if your PC asks for you to go to the Microsoft store click more options and use Notepad! Hope this helps you!

SputnikSA 2020-11-23 1 point

i did what Jude Williams said and i finally got the game to work after installing some files that allowed me to bypass the cd 4 thing and finally got the game to launch however for what ever reason the game would decide to have a "fatal crash" every time the game would try and load. I was really hoping to play this game but atleast in my case the game is completely unplayable in the sense that it wont get past the loading screen

How do i 2020-10-21 2 points

@TIREDGAMER
I'm having the same problem! It's installing as a DVD on its own with no space left to add a patch! @Jude Williams says it's supposed to be C:/Program Files/EA Games/The Sims 2
But I don't even have an "EA games" folder! I'm obviously not knowledgeable of how computers work so I'm completely lost... I just want to play the sims 2 again :,(

TiredGamer 2020-10-20 3 points

I tried all the tips in the comments but I can't get it to work... I installed it and it created an ISO file which windows happily opened on its own and made it into a DVD drive for whatever reason which I guess is right. I tried to install it but it said no CD so I did all the steps in the comments and even downloaded a patch, still with "insert CD 4". There was no CD folder as far as I can see.

I tried Dave's instructions and downloaded manual updates but I cannot install them in my sims folder as it says there is no more space so I can't install it and override the patches. I'm just so lost... I was really hoping this was going to work.

If anyone can help me out it would be greatly appreciated. I've spent like.. 4 hours on this.

I finally made Teen Styles run.

Remember to install to the ROOT of your hard drive instead of the typical installation. Or it will be rendered inoperable. I spent a good amount of time working on this.

Inge 2020-06-09 3 points

I followed the steps and it works perfectly for me. Thank you !!!!

Dave33333 2020-06-09 0 point

No matter how many times I try to run teen styles. The installer either freezes, renders the game inoperable. And at one time it finished and told me "The Sims 2 was installed improperly."

I tried different sources and this installer was made by Satan himself.

Dave33333 2020-06-09 0 point

New issues running the game. Mainly starting.

After installing all expansions, the game would trigger a BSOD so I started under administrator.

Evem then the game would crash. I have no clue which pack is the rogue one, but I'm slowly taking care of it.

Dave33333 2020-06-08 2 points

Okay... After some fiddling and using the instructions, I got it running.

First, and most important thing... On modern operating systems, the patch is broken, I even fetched a CD 4 iso, it crashed. You have to manually update it by downloading the update files (Can actually be found on a YouTube video, kinda easy to find I think.) and then manually dumping them into your installation directory, let everything overwrite, I'll try to send it over to the administrators of the site at a later time maybe.

Regardless, doing this and following the steps allows Sims 2 to run.

We've done it guys, we finally cracked it.

Dave33333 2020-06-08 3 points

When I try to run the patch, it asks for CD 4.

Jude Williams 2020-06-07 2 points

If you do it this way you'll only need the cd crack from mansion & garden, cause it is the latest stuff pack. When Base+ M&G stuff work you can install the others without needing a crack and it wont ask for the cd from the other packs

Fofo 2020-06-01 2 points

Retro Pixel Lizard 2020-05-17 1 point

With or without the expansions, this is still the best of the entire Sims franchise. I even found a way to get rich enough to have a manor (If I could even design a manor) in less than 15 minutes without cheating, but that requires the open for business expansion.

If you got black rectangles under your Sims, open up the console (CTRL SHIFT C) and enter " boolProp objectShadows false".
