Suddenly my M&G disc doesn't want to load.  I'm not sure if it's the disc or the cd drive.  It doesn't really matter which because I can't afford to fix either one.  So, is there a way to custom load the game so that the disc is not required and is so do I have to reload all of the ep's and stuff packs or just the one that I usually use as the game play disc (M&G)?



Thanks for the response.  I didn't mean to break any rules.

That would involve utilizing a crack, which we cannot and will not help you with, because it is illegal. Please familiarize yourself with the site rules, because this information is clearly in there.


If your game isn't loading, it might not be a hardware thing. Does this happen with just Sims 2, or with any cds you put in? In it's just the Sims 2, then there are a few ways you try fixing it. It might be a bit time consuming, but if it means you can get your game running again without needlessly going through the expense of replacing your CD drive, it's worth it.

Take a look at this (http://www.sims2wiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Game_Problem) guide and go through all the steps. You'll hopefully find something there to do the trick.

Have you tried to delete the cache files? That's one of the most usual reasons that the game won't start.

accessory.cache, groups.cache, cigen.package and contentregistry
(usually two or more, found in the same "the sims 2" folder where you find teh Downloads folder).

Do not share information or links for no-cd cracks. I've stated this is against site rules and even quoted the rule in question, so following it up to give a link to how this can be done wasn't the most brilliant move. Once more and this thread will be locked and all parties involved risk being banned. You can offer advice on how to fix his game, so long as it does not involve how to run the game without the disk.

I hope that is plain enough.

Paradoxically, if you think about it, the rule actually tells anyone interested exactly how to go about it. LOL!

Sorry, I couldn't resist!

tee-hee-hee!

I didn't mean to do anything wrong or ask for anything illegal.  I'm not looking for a hack or crack or whatever the heck you're talking about.  I guess my question should have been: Would doing a custom installation instead of the standard one, enable me to play without the disk or not?  I have never tried the custom installation so I don't know what it would or would not enable me to do.

There's no way to play the game without the disk that doesn't involve utilizing methods we're not allowed to discuss here. The problems with your game are likely caused by corrupt data, either in your Downloads, your cache files, your SavedSims, or something else, which is why I suggested you to go through the steps in the link I posted in my initial response. :)

Also, can you please answer my question? It would be a big help to know this:

IronBeard, did you NOT see my reply to the last person who posted this information? Congratulations. You just got this thread locked.

As I have said already, there is NO way to run the game without the CD that does not involve using methods not permitted here.

End of story.

Edit: The method you and pocketypockz described is intended for use with data that is not copyright protected or in backup and data recovery. Using it on copyrighted material is piracy. This means it is illegal and falls under our "No keys, key generators, cracks, illegal software, etc" rule.

Edit again: To clarify, it doesn't matter to me what you do with your game or computer. It's your game, your computer and your risk to take. Just don't bring here, OK?

I have to agree with Joy and if she hadn't have locked this thread, I would have, especially given your disregard and disrespect for the rules as they've been stated. Either abide by them or the door is gonna hit ya where the good maker split ya when you're tossed out of it. If you guys wanna trade information like that, take it offsite such as a chat program or email, do NOT do it here.
