The Sims 3 late night compatiblity

★★ Novice

Hi I have The Sims 3 updated to version 6.5.1.011031 and the launcher lists my game as "up to date." However, when attempting to run Late Night, it tells me that there is a compatibility issue and that I need to update the base game.  This is a clean install from the retail copies. Could someone direct me to a thread that details how to fix this issue? Thank you in advance.

@89q1ijzwkrze  Run the Super Patch to manually patch your game to 1.67, and then Late Night should install fine.  It might still want to update itself—LN came with a separate small patch, unlike later packs—but that's not a problem, and the launcher should handle that.

The link you want is directly under "Cumulative Base Game 1.67 Super Patcher," and it's a direct download link to EA servers.

@89q1ijzwkrze  I'm so glad to hear it worked.  As for worlds...

Rflong is one of the most popular world creators in Sims 3, and she's still active.  As far as I know, none of her worlds use custom content, although you can add some on your own if you want.

 

Here's another list of recommended worlds:
