1. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the following location:
C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 World Adventures\Game\Bin
For Vista and Windows 7, the location will be your main directory. I don't know the exact location but they should be similar. Just as long as you can navigate to the Bin folder in the main Sims 3 World Adventures directory.
2. Look for a file called TS3EP01. Make a desktop shortcut on that file by right-clicking on it and then choosing Send To (Create a desktop shortcut).
That is the workaround to using the launcher to start up the game.
I also use Pescado's 3booter, a nifty little program also available from MATY, to start up the game too. The shortcut method is the same for this particular file because this one will start the game instead of TSEP01. You might want to look at 3booter to see if this will solve the problem for you starting up the game.

I tried this as my world adventures will also not start, but all I get is the opening movie and then it cuts to the desktop. Am I doing something wrong?
Chaavik:
You need to double-click on this file that will start up the game without going through the launcher:
TS3EP01
Make sure it's the blue picture, not the orange picture labeled "Icon" in the text box when you hover over it with your mouse. You can create a desktop shortcut with that one so you don't have to navigate to the folder every time to start the game up.
