My Game Won't Play
SenkoTwiik:
Update: I tried to right click on the icon, and I couldn't find what you were talking about. That option wasn't available. Here's my screenshot.
Dullahan:
Try going to the exe file in your computer files, then.
In my case, that is Computer > Programs > EA Games > The sims 2 fun with pets collection > EP99 > TSBin
And then run Sims2Launcher.
To find which location it is on yours, right-click the icon, and hit 'Open file location'.
caffeinated.joy:
Of course, for you, you'll want to replace "Sims 2 fun with pets" to "Sims 2 Apartment Life".
You can also directly access the .exe file from there that bypasses the launcher completely and make the .exe file a shortcut on your desktop to permanently bypass the launcher and take you straight into the game when you click it. The file path should look something like:
Programs\EA Games\The Sims 2 Apartment Life\TSBin
If you're using Windows 7 or Vista, then you'll want to start with Program Files (x86), then go to EA Games, etc.
The file you're looking for is Sims2EP8.exe
If you make a shortcut on your desktop of this file and click on it when you want to play, it will always completely bypass the annoying launcher.
SenkoTwiik:
Thanks guys. I will try these things.
Also, like Theraven suggested, if this doesn't work, I will try to remove my game files.
But I have a lot of downloads and saved bodyshop projects. Is it safe to remove the game files? My custom stuff won't get messed up?
UPDATE:
I tried these ideas.
I went to the EXE file from the path suggested.
Clicking on the exe still would not let me start my game. It told me again that there was no disk.
I also tried removing my game folder out of My Documents. Same thing.
I'm not sure what's up with this thing.
Dullahan:
With removing your game files, just move them to your desktop, or back them up somewhere. So move your savedsims, neighborhood and downloads to your desktop(and any other files you may want to save).
Do you have some sort of Firewall that would be blocking the game?
Question:
What about if you try re-installing? You said that the other computers come up with the autorun, so.
