Hey, Im new to wine and ubuntu and just downloaded wine (1.2.2-0ubuntu6). Im trying to install "the sims 3" (a game for windows/macOS). Here is what I do, and what happends: 1: I insert the CD. 2: I go to "my computer" 3: I click on the sims3 file or whatever it is. 4: "The SIMS(tm) 3 install.app"-folder shows up. 5: I right-click on it, and click "open with

I bought The Sims 3 today and it installed and ran perfectly. However I had to uninstall it for unrelated reasons and when I reinstalled it it wouldn't launch, wit hor without the nocd patch. I don't recall changing aything in the way of drivers or wine versions in that time so I'm at a complete loss as to what is going on. Any ideas?

For those that have the sims 3 have you had any luck with the game at all? I looked at the sims 2 page and going off of that it does not look too promising :(

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey guys, I just subscribed to this list - maybe discussions related to this error are already going on, but I couldn't find a lot when I googled it. I will just assume this isn't known or fixed yet, let's see how it goes. Whenever I run The Sims 2 with a No-CD crack (otherwise it won't run) in Wine, I get the following error:

I had the Sims 3 working up until the town load section and was about to test something for Jeffz when something (I honestly don't know what) caused some breakage to do with the MS C++ libraries. Now when I try and run the game I get: Code: ben at xenith:~/Wine/Games/Sims3/Game/Bin$ wine TS3.exe fixme:ntoskrnl:KeInitializeTimerEx stub: 0x110f80 0 fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could

When I try to run Sims 2 in Wine it doesn't detect my graphics card correctly. There was no problems during the installation. Picture of the error: [Image: http://merkelig.org/sims2/sims2error.png ] Although in the AppDB people report that the game runs fine except for some graphical glitches and my graphics card should support DirectX 9. I've tried to run it with Wine 1.0 and a Git

Hi, I've been googling like mad trying to get Sims 3 working on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I have wine, mono and winetricks installed and have tried all the tips I can find. I got rid of the 'no game disk' problem, then I started crashing as the town was loading. Sometimes the installer doesn't even get to the intro video. Anyway, this error is a recurring thing throughout, so I was

Hello I would like to run a debugger or log window to detect what goes wrong when trying to run Sims2, but when I use winedbg Sims2.exe and step it, I get a popup that a debugger was detected. How can I mask, or hide wine's debugger? Would i need a root kit? or is that just something that works on windows. Thanks!

Hello. I'm currently using donet20 to run the sims 3 launcher. It is very laggy and flashes alot. I don't know if Mono will help or not, as I've tried it, but it doesn't seem to run when I try to open it. Any help? Has anyone gotten this to work close to flawlessly?

Hello! I have just installed a legal copy of a two--disk game using Wine. The first problem when trying to run the installed game was "Anti-piracy protection: no CD/DVD drive found". It could be prevented by mapping CD directly onto the root directory of a new drive. But then the next message showed: "Anti-piracy protection: No disk in CD drive" or something like that. The CD

If you guys are familiar on how the piracy groups work on the internet, you are aware that they have "releases" with their names on it.

I am trying as hard as I can to find a solution to get the Sims 2 to work. I have a new copy on the way and everything I hear says the game wont play in wine. Now I had an idea, the last time I ran the Sims 2 was on a Mac. I know for a fact the the Mac version is just in a Cider wrapper, I know because I've opened it before. Now I'm sure EA didn't dump thousands of dollars to rebuild

I have a copy of the Sims installed on a Win2k FAT32 partition. I know for a fact that The Sims works under Wine (Mandrake's "Gamer" edition), but I get an error when I try to run it. The error is as follows: "Game cannot be started because: There is not enough memory or hard drive space to run. Exit now." I do have plenty of free space and plenty of memory. Does

Does anyone know of a package that includes the Modified Sims test [Gewerke, 1983, Sims, 1972]? This test is used in econometrics and is a kind of alternative to the Granger test [Granger, 1969], which is in the package lmtest. Thanks in advance, chris Refernces: Gewerke, J., R. Meese, and W.

Hi all, I just thought I'd stop in and voice a few thoughts concerns. I really enjoyed playing The Sims 2 and some of its expansion packs in Windows; it was one of my favorite games. I would truly love to see it working playably in WINE (there was a patch/mod that allowed it to start up, as I'm aware, but it wasn't very playable). I understand that it would be a large amount of

I'm not sure if this has been asked before, but I searched, and didn't find: I'm trying to install the Sims 1 from CD, and I figured out that you need to cd to /media/cdrom0 to launch it. I ran wine ./start.exe, and it launched the screen fine. Exit works. All the buttons work, and clicking Install launches the install process (I think it's /media/cdrom0/Setup/Setup.exe). Then,
