Sims 3 expansion packs.

[Scarlysim]

I want to buy Sims 3 generations. But I do not want to play off the generations disc. So I wanted to know if I download any expansion pack to my PC can I play of the Sims 3 disc not an expansion pack disc. 

I have:

Sims 3 original game

Riverview

in game bought content with Sims points

origin account

Sims 3 game account

I plan on collecting the expansion packs and I want to play off the sims3 disc. Is this possible?mileyhappy

if you download an expansion pack it will run off the download so you do not need disk
