Sims 3 Create a World edit in game

I've been building a world for a few days now and i'm trying to edit in the game, and nothing happens. When i click on the edit in game button, the game launcher to play sims appears, but nothing happens after that? 

Also, i tried deleting CAW in the hopes that that wouls work, i backed up my world onto my hard drive and i can't seem to open it in CAW now. I tried editing a world again once i downloaded CAW again and the same problem is happening ☹️
Can anyone help me?

    Do you have the version with which you can't bypass the launcher ? If so, no there is no solution as far as I'm aware

    How do I know that my The Sims 3 and CAW can not exactly pass the launcher? I've tried using a BAT file, but it did not work at all. Does it signify that The Sims 3 that I have not be able to pass through the launcher? Thank you for your help.

  • I have all the originals. I guess I should never have done the update. So do I just reinstall the original and then not do the update? Should I use the TS3W.EXE or should I use the EXE from say Future?

    Updating shoulnd't be a problem. If you can start the game through ts3w.exe without Origin popping up (close it first), you should be able to use EIG:

  • I bypass the launcher all the time. With EIG it will get to the end of the load world bar with just a few pixels to go and then just stops there. No error, no log, just stops forever. Even let it try and load for 8 hours and had to forcefully crash it. I even took and did a complete uninstall, cleaned the registries and then did a full and complete reinstall of all of my disks. Took several hours to get that done, and still can not use EIG.

    Using Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit

    Even if I could find a viable workaround I would be happy.

    That sounds like a different issue. Did you check at the CAW forum on the offiial site yet ?

  • Many are having the same issue while others are not. There doesn't seem to be a common denominator. Heck it might be down't to a version of windows, who knows. I just wish EA would have supported this fully.

    Well, it was only ever beta. I don't know anything about it personally so I can't really help you. I don't have the patience for it 🙂
