The Correct Order of Operations (Expansions)

(1/2) > >>

kinnika:
Hey, everyone.

I'm hoping this isn't a constant repeat of what other Simmers have written...

My friend just ordered The Sims 2 Deluxe (The Sims 2 / Nightlife). I noticed when looking through the expansions that University is actually the second Sims 2 expansion and Nightlife is the 3rd expansion.

One, why is the deluxe pack the first and third expansion as opposed to the first and second?

Second, is my friend able to add University after downloading the deluxe she just ordered? I'm pretty sure that when I had read a similar post that someone said it is not like Sims 1 where you had to download the expansions in order, otherwise you'd screw up the game. The Sims 2 is a little more flexible when it comes to downloading expansions. I'm hoping this is true...

You don't necessarily have to install them in order, but it's the smart thing to do. 

Found this, which apparently was from the EA site:
* The Sims 2™ (or Sims 2 Deluxe, Sims 2 Double Deluxe or Sims 2 Holiday Edition, whichever you have)
 * University (or University Life Collection)
 * Nightlife (disregard if you have Sims 2 Deluxe or Double Deluxe)
 * Christmas Party Pack (US) OR Holiday Party Pack (UK)
 * Open for Business or Best of Business Collection
 * Family Fun Stuff or Fun with Pets Collection
 * Glamour Life Stuff
 * Pets (disregard if you have Fun with Pets Collection)
 * Happy Holiday Stuff (Disregard if you have Sims 2 Holiday Edition)
 * Seasons
 * Celebration Stuff (disregard if you have Double Deluxe)
 * H&M Fashion Stuff (disregard if you have Best of Business Collection)
 * Bon Voyage
 * Teen Style Stuff (disregard if you have University Life Collection)
 * FreeTime
 * Kitchen & Bath Interior Design Stuff (disregard if you have Best of Business Collection)
 * IKEA Home Stuff (disregard if you have University Life Collection)
 * Apartment Life
 * Mansion & Garden Stuff (disregard if you have Fun with Pets Collection)

One thing to remember about the Tri Packs is do not install the Store Edition for a lot of mods will not work with it.

You no longer can use the store any way so the "Store Edition" is no longer needed.

thank you for the correct order...someone else posted it a while back on the Sims2 site but I am going to have to check I don't think it's the same order....also what happens when you don't put them in order....hope nothing serious because I really don't want to start over again...

broomhilda:
