Hi, @crinrict
I tried just disabling one pack (GF) using played save data. That worked fine. And then, I try to start new game with empty EA folder as same as yesterday I done. I could get new base game data. Thanks so so much! But what was wrong I don't know yet...
Thank you for the addendum.
In fact, still I'm having issue after I closed this thread.
At the time I posted #5, I could play the base game data. But once I finished the game and start again, EA app does not recognize the argument. The base game data is started with all DLCs.
I keep the argument with complete string in text doc. When I played base game every time using that by copy & paste that in Origin. So that argument is not wrong, I think. But in EA app sometimes that is recognized and sometimes is not.
Today, after I read your addendum, I reinstalled EA app to verify again.
From EA official site, I down load EA app in signing in.
In management panel, I copied & pasted the argument with compete string.
Using played base game data, run EA app.
That was OK, I could play the base game data. But started the same game data again, all DLCs also had run.
It's not impossible playing the game, but it's inconvenient.
What's something else I have to do?
Thank you for your reply.
At the moment the things I could find.
Save the argument in EA app. Then before start, only last one character typed by manual.
Start the game with the base game data with clicking "Play" at EA app.
This way can resume the game keeping disable DLCs.
I could make sure that this way useful both immediately after running the EA app and when resume the game after exiting and with the EA app still running.
More one thing I want to make sure, but first I report above.
And to be sure, I post the string below. (That's copy&pasted from my text doc.)
-disablepacks:EP01,EP02,EP03,EP04,EP05,EP06,EP07,EP08,EP09,EP10,EP11,GP01,GP02,GP04,GP05,GP06,GP07,GP10,GP12,SP04,SP08,SP09,SP12,SP13,SP15,SP16,SP18,SP25,SP35
Thank you verifying the string.
I have since tried and found that if I start the game from the EA app by clicking "Play", it recognizes the arguments correctly. What does not seem to work correctly is when the game is started from the Sims4 shortcut icon. Is this way to start the game no longer available? As I can play the game starting from EA app, I have no problem now, I report just in case.
Thank you so much for your time and sorry my bad English.
@crinrict
Thank you for the reply.
When I install the EA app, Origin is automatically uninstalled correctly. What I reported in #9 and #11 is what I was able to confirm in that state.
No one else seems to be responding to this. (Maybe that was a bad title...), so maybe it is an issue from my personal PC setup, but if you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I will do my best to answer. I would like to ask you, when you start the EA app, do you enter your ID each time? In Origin, I was able to launch with the ID stored, but in the EA app, the ID is not stored. Is this with the EA app properly activated?
Adding:
I have more things to check.
The play time displayed in the EA app has not changed. (image below)
I think something might be wrong.
I do not see any effect on the game play and I can play normally. Saved data is also recorded normally as you can see in the image.
The following is a bulleted summary of the platform installation status and matters up to this point.
1. installed EA app (Origin was automatically uninstalled)
2. no continuity of memory of arguments was seen, posted here
3. uninstalled EA app once and reinstalled Origin. Terminated the matter being checked and reinstalled EA app. (I think that the date of last play day is at this time.)
4. confirmed in EA app that arguments are retained and play can be resumed with the same argument data as is, if from EA app
5. found out that the argument is invalid if launched from the Sims4 shortcut icon.
6. added two points of concerns that came up afterwards
