Hi!
So, I've spent the last 4 days with every type of problem with my sims 2 possible.
I finally was able to get the update window to work out WITHOUT any patches and its super easy!
I've tried the task manager and the patches they both didn't work. Even if the task manager one worked
my expansion packs didnt completely download and show up in the game.
so the simple and easy solution if you are still looking for it to work is whenever you install your games TURN OFF YOUR INTERNET!!
Simple as that! It doesnt allow it to search for an update so whenever it goes to say something along the line its going to update and u click ok
It will pop up that it is up to date and boom! It works.
If you were to try and download it with internet off and it doesnt work I would delete the files for each and then delete them from the registry and then reinstall with
no internet at all. Also it doesnt matter what order you download them! as long as the internet is off 🙂
(To anyone else using this I was fixing the for the CDS not the origin ultimate download)
@EtherealSkulls Although this is useful if you can’t get the game to patch, I highly recommend installing patches because some packs have major bugs in release versions and some of them (such as Crittur and Ottomas families) may even cause corruption in the neighborhood if the game is not patched.
I actually was able to get my game to patch by using these two videos! My game works perfectly and been able to use it for the past two days so far no glitches!
The first video to follow would be this one to fix your resolution!

Now this is the video that will patch the game if you follow the instructions and do it correctly cause mine works!
