      Ya within minutes of playing as a family. Em I think just the sims 3 and not the Eps. for Sims 3 this needs to be typed in (C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin\TS3W.exe ) but I dont know what to put in instead of this for the expansion packs.

        That would be those

        C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\<name of the EP>\Game\Bin\TS3EPxx.exe 

        C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\<name of the SP>\Game\Bin\TS3SPxx.exe 

        x stands for the number of the EP. World adventures would be TS3EP01.exe for example
