I extracted the files into the correct folder which was easy enough but now the launcher won't even open and attempt to play the game. Is there any way to undo this?

Hey, I have a problem. I idolize you because you made my game worked, but when I updated my launcher, which is 1.22.9, the error showed up. I tried downloading again your link, copied and pasted it, and it seemed didn't work. Can you make a revised version on it so that all patches will be compatible with the link you have given? PRETTY PLEASE. I can't live another day without playinh The Sims!

Hi I just tried to follow your instructions, but when I try to copy the files it says "insert a writable disc" or something like that. I'm not sure if I am doing this correctly, but I really need help. Should the extracted folder only have 4 items in it? Also exactly what folder am I copying the items to?

This isn't working on my computer! Every time I try to extract the files into game/bin it asks me if I would like to replace files so I click yes to all, but it keeps saying that it an error has occurred?

Thanks, that's so helpful. Just wondering, if I purchase an expansion pack, will I need a different patch? And will I still be able to play without the disk? Cheers.

Hi, I am new to the forum, have some problems with my Sims 3 game and unfortunately seem to be one of those who have this disc error problem that hasn't been resolved until now.
My game won't recognize the disc either so I tried several cracks including the one in the beginning of the post.
Before using a crack I could open the game with the launcher but it would ask for the disc when pressing play. After the rack however the launcher would stop working but I used a TS3W (something like that) and I got to the neighborhood screen and then it would ask me for the disc. I re-installed the game and didn't install the Origin dload manager but updated it manually and used the crack and this time the launcher stopped working again but there is no TS3W file anymore so nothing works..........
(TS3.exe does not open at all)
If anyone finds out how to fix this at some point please get back to me.

I did the Sims 3 disc fix correctly, and it worked perfectly.  However, when I installed the Pet Expansion, I am getting an error that says the Launcher will not open.  Then, when I go into the game, I am getting the disc authentication failure again.  Is there a way to get around this?  Thank you,

Ok. I tried the fix, and it didn't work. I have a few expansions, and all of my stuff is updated. BUT, I am still getting the "No Disc" Message. I do have a Toshiba Laptop, and did go to the website in option 2, but I wasn't sure what exactly I was looking for. Please help me. I REALLY would like to play TS3.

I tried to follow this fix (using an Imac) with the only result that I now get a debug error - now trying to uninstall and hope to be able to read the original discs again afterwards...

Any other suggestions?
