Chairman Greg:
I recently re-installed and currently only have the base game and Uni EP installed as well - and believe it or not - I like the game better :lol:
I am annotating your list with notes based on the past two years of experience helping and trouble-shooting 1000s of help requests & PMs

Chairman Greg:
Wow! Thanks, Jakov! I'm thinking I should cross-reference that thread over there to this thread over here so folks can get the collective wisdom about all these things.
I was successful in installing everything except Pets and after a few timid tests, it looks I just need to hunt down some conflicting hacks to get everything working smoothly. I know that's old hat for most folks but I was terrified about what it might do to my game!
I did patch as I went, though each pack checked to make sure the game was already patched before it installed. Sometimes EA gets it right. :)
I'm inclined to agree with you. I really like the game with just University installed and could probably have fun playing with just that toy for another decade or more. My primary motivation for installing all the other toys was wanting the additional goodies and animations for story illustrations; I was suffering from acute expansion-pack envy. :)
Now my sims can look out at the view and actually have a view to look at!
Before yesterday, I had to Photoshop stuff like this!
Well, it's a big deal to me! (It's a scene from Anja's story over on the adult site.)
I installed almost the full set of FFS hacks; still need to make sure that the Squingification of my game is up to date.
And I am very happy to report that Insimenator is working like a charm! Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy! Thanks to Eric for such outstanding work on it! Can't say that enough! :happy7:
Of course, now all my sims are campaigning for cars and places to go in them. It never ends!
