EA you are violating your own terms
If you have not updated your game past 1.67 don't buy anymore stuff packs or sets for Sims 3. EA is forcing update if you do. I bought 2 stuff packs and was not able to install them unless I updated...

I have all the disk, but I can't even use them to install, because something happened that my computer doesn't even recognize anything past The Sims 3 base game disk, and won't play them, I can install them, but it won't play them, it won't even start up the game. This all happened after I accidentally ended up with the 1.69 patch. I'm pretty sure that there is something hidden inside my my computer that was put into place by the 1.69 patch, but I don't even have a clue to what it would be or where to look to remove it.
I am planning on getting another computer later on, and at that time I'll try again with only Sims 3 for that computer, and leave my Sims 2 and 4 to this one.
yep after I updated Origin, and the game, installed the stuff packs, I clicked on the icon on my desktop as I usually do & the game wouldn't open.
Said the game needs Origin to play it. Which is so wrong imo because all Origin does is spy on us.
I saw some files that said things other than Origin (maybe worded a little differently)
What business is that of theirs what we do on our computers ? As long as we're not breaking laws.
And they keep track of how many hours the player spends on the game which is ridiculous imo. It's really NOTB.
edit: you could do what I did to roll your game back to 1.67. System restore if you have windows
