"Origin is required to play this game" on The Sims 3.
In short: I have most of my expansions on disc, and one expansion and one stuff pack bought on Origin. Until yesterday, all of the expansions and stuff packs that I own were playable, regardless of how I opened the game. As of yesterday, starting TS3 from the icon on the desktop or start menu gives me this message:
When I launch the game from Origin, however, it shows only the add-ons that I bought through Origin:
I have tried reinstalling Origin, and reinstalling all of my game discs and my Origin-bought expansions. I'm at a loss as to what to do next - can anybody help?
