So, these are the steps ( AGAIN: do not do anything else, just do EXACTLY as written below ): The steps aren't hard to understand, just READ CAREFULLY and DO NOT skip any steps! If you do it this way, you'll automatically get the latest working version of the GAME. Seen the fact that a lot people are having problems with The Sims 3, while it works just fine, I decided to create this 'guide' to show you how to install The Sims 3 correctly. DO EXACTLY AS WRITTEN BELOW, EVERY SINGLE STEP, BEFORE POSTING THAT IT DOESN'T WORK! DO NOT SKIP ANY STEPS AND READ EVERY STEP VERY CAREFULLY.
