Hope this helps, I'm glad I figured it out so I could at least play through the third patch and get the disc to work. You can put back your files in programs and in your Documents for TS3 after this. Install them manually in order! Do not Auto patch! The last patch may be important to you, but to my knowledge there is no way to play the game from disc if you install it on Windows 10 and also have TS3 installed. Now with the Electronics Folder (which holds TS3 program files) out of drive C because you put it on your desktop, and no player file in your Documents you can install TSM smoothly (unless your disc is scratched and dirty) and download the patches up to 1.3 (there are 3 patches that will work fine) and not install the 4th, 2.0 last patch and play your game. This is because if you have installed it and trying to reinstall it, not all of it got uninstalled. It may also be in one or two other places such as in HK_ Local or HK_Local_Windows_Current Version. Open RegEdit and Delete The Sims Medieval (left pane) from HK_Current User Software category. Yes, these are the program files for TS3 so put them in a safe place like dragging them to your desktop.Īlso go into your documents and drag your TS3 (player) files The Sims 3 folder to the desktop. Because TSM borrows some things from TS3 (and it's engine) the game will/may get stuck on the Redundancy Check Error and not install or get stuck at the Data files it needs to install.īefore installing, go into your programs folders for TS3 and remove the Electronics folder to your desktop. Here is the problem, if you have TS3 installed and then want to install TSM the game gets confused. Some of us prefer No Origin since we bought that disk at release and don't want to tie the game to Origin, and from what I have read Origin no longer offers the game anyway, unless you get on the phone several times. These are the steps to fix that Redundancy Check Error and to get the game to run on Windows 10 (without having to resort to Origin if you don't want Origin) and play from disc. And not fully installing and getting stuck when it tried to install (or reinstall) the data files. Other problems arose like the Redundancy Check error, and the game still running in task manager if you tried over and over to install from disc. Might work fine on Windows 7, I know it did on my Windows 7 machine.Ĥ. After much (a full day almost) of researching the problem with the last patch from 2011 (before P&N EP) or maybe it was after that EP, many never solved this problem of how to get the game to play after installing this last patch on Windows 10. So, even if you go into files and create a shortcut of the TSM launcher that's not going to work, either.ģ. The patched game from the EA Core finder didn't put an icon on the desktop. But yes, the disc has to be in the drive at start up. exe from the start menu and or whatever icon it placed on your desktop not the disc to start up the game. The thing about TSM is you have to use the. Then the game would no longer load from disc. I made the mistake of allowing the EA Core.dll installing the last patch 2.0 whatever. ![]() There seems to be a problem with that patch depending on where you get it.Ģ. However, I did already know from years ago, the game needed at least the three separate patches for it back in 2011. The first installation went fine and the game loaded from disc and played fine. I ran into many problems many people on the internet seem to still have.ġ. ![]() I had installed TS3 base so far, and then decided after a few weeks to install TSM, too. ![]() Recently I had switched pc to a better one (matter of opinion, not mine as I prefer ATI video cards not Nvidia cards etc.) Anyway, I have been in the process of reinstalling my Sims' games.
