Title: The startup pop-up
Post by: Foxybaby on September 24, 2007, 02:43:01 pm
Does anyone else find this annoying? I keep forgetting about it and do my usual double-click the icon then go do something else for 5 mons whilst the game loads. Today, I loaded-went away, but got doing something else and a half hour later thought, oh well, at least its fully loaded, but nooo, that stupid pop-up was there, so I had to hit play game and wait all over again! Gaah!

Change the target for the shortcut to "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Bon Voyage\TSBin\Sims2EP6.exe"

Have you try the solution from Ancient Foxy ? If it's a shortcut with "Sims2EP6" and not "Sims2Launcher" it's done. ;)

Okay I'm not very good with comps. So could someone  with vista tell me how to  make this new shortcut? If not is there a patch or something I could use to get the same outcome? If so could someone please put a link here? :D

Step by step directions to do it easily

Delete the shortcut from your desktop
click start look for My computer click it
 Open My Computer/ C drive /Program Files
 Go to  EA Games\The Sims 2 Bon Voyage\TSBin
 Right-click on Sims2EP6.exe
 Select "Send to... Desktop (Create Shortcut)

It is the same with Vista as long as you installed on C Drive.
