anyway so i copy ALl the files and then use this thing?
Only thing is now, it says please instert The sims 2 family fun stuff CD so i need to get around that somehow...
Help:nervous:
Yea, that's what I meant. You will need to download a 'no-cd' crack. This enables you to play the game without having the actual CD in the drive (copied CDs dont work). You can get one from gamecopy world though
Since I'm nice I found it for you:
http://m0001.gamecopyworld.com/games/pc_the_sims_2_ffs.shtml#The%20Sims%202:%20Family%20Fun%20Stuff%20v1.0%20(v1.4.0.74)%20[MULTI]%20No-CD/Fixed%20EXE
At the bottom:
The Sims 2: Family Fun Stuff v1.0 (v1.4.0.74) [MULTI] No-CD/Fixed EXE 20-02-2006
RELOADED
File Archive [5.0 MB]
Play Instructions:
* Install the game - Full Installation.
* Replace the original SIMS2SP1.EXE file with the one from the File Archive.
* Play the Game!
p.s. you will need to download a zip program that will unpack .rar files. I recommend 7-zip
Update: Thank you Sooo Much!!! : D It works if you cant guess
I'm sure coolme has a perfectly legitimate reason. Like she's too lazy.
Me, I use no-cd's because the actual CDs are too expensive. Unless it's a good game, then you do buy it anyway. You buy the CE
Because My sister uses the cd? And i just brought a new laptop with some wicked screen and gfx?
Mabye the fact i like to play the game and have no CDs?
And im a HE!
Learn to share it then. This is what I had to do whenever my dad pinched my Championship Manager CD...
OOoorrrrr download a no cd crack
isn't that (and copying games) illegal and therefore wrong?
Surely that's a question for the politics and debate forum? These days a lot of people use them because they don't like filtering through hundreds of CDs. Having the CD in the drive to play is not an effective anti-piracy measure anyway. Yes, some people do use them for the wrong reasons, but there you go.
Games people download tend to be games people wouldn't have bought anyway. Same with music. Not that I'm justifying, just saying it's not as bad as it's made out to be. I paid £18 for world of warcraft to see if I liked it or not, turned out I didn't. Are they going to give me my money back? No, I've got a game I no longer use now!
Whereas other games I've tried I've liked so much I've gone out and bought them.
I think some websites allow people to download demos.
Only some games have demos for them. Anyway, look at it this way:
- number of copied games on my computer? 0
- number of no-cd cracks on my computer? 0
Games I play:
- BF2 (owned, with spec forces expansion)
- Oblivion (CE owned)
- Half Life 2 (owned)
- Civ 3 (brother owns it)
erm, lots of other games I have, that's what I've been playing recently though.
