I started installing through zlOrigin last night and got to play   I'm happy I've been waiting for an expansion like this since the game came out!

Normally the mod folder is on Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4
If you don't see it, you can create one. Most of the mods will not work because of the new update.

UPDATE
It Works nas Ghost said without the cc and i also took the previous save. Gonna try later with cc

Happy it works for you! did you do anything besides delete the game folder and got the one from this post? Because I tried it and it didn't work still

Yes princess i took away all mods and previous saves and started the game without adminstrator hope it helps!

Yep did all that, I guess I'll just wait until something happens on the forum.  I'm leaving for Greece tonight for a week, so I really wanted to have it installed and played before..... but I guess I can just be cultural and go see stuff instead  

PLAY FOR THE BOTH OF US

Hello @Princesstomato and welcome to the Forum,


Bear in mind that first and foremost we specialize in Windows OS only, and therefore all our releases are meant for Windows OS in the first place. I'm really unsure on how to apply that thing on a Mac OS-system, I'm sorry. There are a few posts from Mac users though, such as...

http://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t31942-mac-tips-or-tricks-speed-up-your-mac-in-seconds

Note that while the first post refers to the previous setup (up to and including the "Toddlers Stuff" release), the second one appears to be of a more general nature.

Hi There,

This is my first post on the forum I'm new here! (although I've been on GFTW for downloads since sims 3!)

I'm running sims4 on a wineskin version on my Mac. Normally all the window fixes work for this as its a windows system app. All the files are windows files.

My whole game is GFTW installs and they are all installed and worked perfectly. All this has been installed today and now I'm getting 'the program TS4.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. we are sorry for the incovinience'

I've tried doing all the fixes for this on the forum and none of this has worked as of yet! Has anyone got any solutions for this?

thanks Rosie

Thank you for the game folder! ~
I love ZlOrigin but I really prefer to play my game offline! 

It says it's going to take 3 weeks to download as there isn't any full seeders! What happened to everyone seeding over the weekend?

Yeah it's working now...down to 16 hours! I can handle that! hehe

Hi again. After i did what The_gh0stm4n my game loaded, but i encountered some other problems. It seems that my sim can't eat, nor travel. After a couple attempts to fix the issue, now my game crashes after i load a household. I guess is due to the CC..

I've got the same problem, but I haven't tried anything to fix it yet. I'm currently going to turn off the CC and check if it makes any difference.

Not eating, unable to watch TV is indeed caused by CC

True. Turned them off completly, seems like it works now. But I don't really like it, I mean I got used to playing with CC... Any idea how to fix it?

No, that can only be fixed by the maker of the CC

I downloaded the torrent and the game starts and works. However, when I set it to my language (ita), all dialogues about Pets disappear (white space). Probably strings in italian aren't updated yet, or so. Boohoo 

Umm why is it as big as 7.45 gbyte ? is the dlc that big or is it a complete merge of all sims4 games so far?

Hello and welcome to the Forum @Yellowsmoke,

Are you sure you changed the language code in the RldOrigin.ini to it_IT ? And did you run the game as Administrator too? After brief playing, I can't seem to notice anything strange:



If you have any mods, can you also try removing them?

Originally, it was planned to be smaller, but for safety reasons we decided to add a few more folders in it. The "original" size would have been 6.5GB or so. But yes. If you prefer something smaller, look on the Forum cs.rin.ru for machine4578. He uploaded a mini-patch that is quite smaller than the format we use on G4TW here.

What was the last TS4 thing uploaded?..
I wanna make sure I'm up to date.
I'm at like Vampires and Parenthood, Toddlers and whatnot.. I don't wanna install this if I missed anything else XD


Also, if I am up to date, do I have to rename my game folder to _Game and paste in the one from the zip like we had to with Vampires??

Ok, this makes me sad. I hoped it wasn't just my problem    Yes it's in it_IT, I ran as Administrator and I removed all mods I had to check it out but still the same problem. I guess I'll try to re-download and re-install everything, maybe there are some missing files. Thanks for checking it on your pc btw

Can't someone upload to mega.nz instead it'd be way faster?

And how do you install? Just drag into c/thesims4/game folder like the others?

The last DLC was "Toddlers Stuff", and if you did the trick with renaming/deleting the Game-folder already, then you don't have to do this again. Just copy/paste this thing over your existing Sims 4 installation and you should be good to go.

Don't uninstall just yet. Where exactly is the text missing for you? Did you also use WinRAR, for extracting the items?

Like I said with the other poster above, on the forum cs.rin.ru look for the thread "The Sims 4" and the uploads from machine4578. I think he uploaded them in direct download (browser) format too. And yes, this G4TW torrent like all others needs to be copied/pasted.

Okay so if I DONT have Fitness Stuff and Toddlers stuff, or CatsnDogs, all I have to do is copy/paste those in order.
No more renaming Game?

@WulfyRoxas wrote:No more renaming Game?

If you did everything correctly (see this here as reference if needed), then no more renaming for you.   

Wow that was fast..thanks guys! I thought I'd be waiting months for this.

7.4GB? Seems very big or is it just me?
I am on 2% after 13 mins. ETA is nearly 3 hours. Seed, seed, seed!

Anyone have it installed yet? Any problems or is it all good?
