Seems Seasons is your newest EP so Patch 1.42 should be enough to play all your expansions: http://sims3.crinrict.com/en/2012/10/patch-1-42.html

I can't make any promises. Try to patch to 1.42 and see if it runs with it. Then gradually add your expansion packs in order of release: http://help.ea.com/en/article/the-sims-3-installation-order/

Test after every expansion.

Seasons
Ambitions

Late Night

World Adventures
Show Time
Pets
And The HLS Pack

So you think that if i download an earlier patch, thatis stll compatiblewith my current system reqs. That the game should run fine? Im justmaking sure, cause like i said, Base Game runs, no problem, but when i download the EPs thats when the game stalls. So what im understanding is that if i download for example update 1.56, ofwhos reuireents my system meet, and then download the EP packs, that the game should run fine? Just making sure, because im going to try it and let you know how it works out.

Hi I am having the same problem but when I tried to install the patch that corresponded with my last EP it said "The installed version of the application could not be determined. The setup will now terminate".
I have tried this with three different patches but it has said the same thing the entire time.

    I did try the version of 1.67 super patch manually but it did the same thing saying that there was a error during startup.
