TS2 on the EA app

OMG!!!! I've just had to restart the EA app this morning and now my TS2 is now showing up as The Sims 2 UC instead of the DD and now I am able to install it on my new PC.

So I want to thank @EA_Cade for letting EA know about this problem and getting it fixed as well as EA for fixing it for us. Now I'm a happy camper as I have TS2/3/4 on my PC... <3
  • @EA_Cade, Ok, so I launched my game with no problem but when trying to load into a neighborhood, the game crashes out to the desk top. So I don't know if it's my PC or the EA app causing it. I have a new CyberpowerPC with Win11 on it, so like I've said, I'm not sure if it's my PC or what since I was able to install the game with no issues. So hopefully this is one the things that you are all looking into so that us TS2 players can still enjoy this game as well... :)

    Awesome! Glad to hear it :)


    Now I just need to adjust my screen resolution which I already have the directions for so that I can change it in the game... :)
  • Why? How? When? My husband just told me two days ago it... appeared. *Gasp!!!* Awwww! Finally!!! Ok, resolution 800 x 600 only, no smooth edging... Hmmm. I used to play at better resolution on my old computer... back in the days. Oh well, hope it get fixed. Meanwhile, time to fulfill some grilled-cheese aspiration. YEAHHHH!
  • has anyone had the directx error come back after switching over to the ea app? the old solution was to just put the game in window mode, but that has stopped working for me

    You might want to read my post and check the link I posted. I was the one who actually found the original fix for TS2. There are a few things you need to know when you're installing that maybe some of those other people forgot to post. ;)

    Any information on whether it's available in languages other than English now? I've been getting questions about every two months on my site about that.
  • Morning all. I just installed,can I still add my packs for the sims 2 that I bought to the EA app? Thanks. Margaret.

    How stable is The Complete Collection? I am crashing A LOT playing from my discs. The last crash was while loading a neighborhood screen and it was so bad, I had to hard boot out of my computer.

    I would rather play from my discs, but if I'm gonna be crashing all the time now, I'll give them up for the download.
