Sims 3 Does Not Launch After Installing Any Packs
Hello, I've been having an issue with my Sims 3,
I would start the game through the EA App and the launcher appears. After pressing play, my screen would go black for a few seconds and then return to the desktop. It would still show the game running on the taskbar if I were to press it, it would do the same thing by the screen going black for a second and coming back to the desktop. Then at this point, I needed to what was the problem.
After doing lots of research, uninstalling, and deleting cache files, no mods. I FOUND OUT.
The final time I reinstalled the game I did not download my expansion packs and the game WORKED. So then I went ahead and downloaded all of them again and the game was back at square one. So I reinstalled the game and ONLY downloaded One pack (seasons pack) and that didn't work, I reinstalled it again with only the generations pack. Still nothing.
I can only play the base game
ANY expansion packs breaks my game and I'm facing a wall, not knowing what to do.
I need help Please and thanks
NOTE: THIS INCLUDES STUFF PACKS AS WELL
@liam78945 Try forcing the game to launch in windowed mode. Go into Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 3, open Options.ini, search for fullscreen , and set it to 0 (zero).
If that doesn't help, please try disabling all your packs in the launcher's Expansion & Stuff Packs tab. I'd like to know whether the problem is the game trying to load these packs or the fact that they've been installed at all.
