Sims 2 Expansion Packs

[Oliver Sudden]

...never could get "Open for Business" to work on its own, but I shuffled the rest of her CDs and loaded the rest of the expansions she had.

By the time I got up to Seasons (the last she bought), I was able to mount the mds for that one (which I guess includes and works with all the earlier ones), so's all good now.

Thanks for your help, all I needed was several later versions of the hammers. Best of all, it works with DT 409, so I don't have to keep versions!

EA is a bunch of idiots. They made lots of expansions, but didn't clarify what to do with them. If you install a later expansion, DO NOT USE OPEN ANY OLDER EXPANSIONS! It will not work right! You must ALWAYS use the executable of the LATEST expansion. Which means, no use in Fixed EXE for any older expansions or any mini images or anything, you must use the latest expansion.

Basically, its easier said like this. Now, the latest is the Teen Style Stuff Pack. If you try and use the fixed exe for it to run the game, it'll just say "Please use the latest expansion." Ok, stupid.

So you use a fixed exe for Bon Voyage. It'll work perfect. If you try and use it for say, Seasons, there will be many glitches as it does not know you have installed Bon Voyage or not.

To fix any of these problems, ONLY use a fixed exe for the LATEST expansion pack you HAVE. Not any older ones or the original TS2. If you need any more clarification, reply. Cause this is a complicated thing. And that EA is stupid and can't tell everyone this.
