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...

@faytheful no offense but this patch 1.69 has been going on for a year. There are several threads on this issue where if you use any new downloads you will be forced to patch 1.69. There is a sticky thread here in gen discussions and one in tech. My only advice is to get your money back from the new downloads you bought and buy them on disc to stay at 1.67.
that may be but I don't spend that much time on this site and I've never had a reason to research it. I never read the threads so I didn't know.
I knew about the game requiring Origin to run but didn't know about the game being updated as a requirement to install.
Unfortunately your a new comer to the dreadful news of this new patch. There are many of us who went out and made sure we bought the game all disc and some hit up a steam sale to buy the whole game there to stay at 1.67 . These would be the two best options to stay away from the 1.69 patch otherwise your stuck with the 1.69 patch if you use any origin downloads
