Update problem?

[siany909]

My game keeps saying that my game is fully updated and won't let me install any new patches. I have version 1.54.95.022001 and i know that there are versions higher than this. I have tried to manually install the updates but it won't work I dont know what to do.

You say you've tried manually? What happens if you download the super patch here and try install it?

Ive tried to use that link before but it keeps saying in order to update you have to start your game then click on the updates tab but then nothing else comes up after ive done that, so im not sure what to do.

I'm not following. 

What happens is you download the super patch (the nice pretty 1.3/6 GB) and then you install it. It should say succesfully updated once it's done. You then launch the launcher and it's updated. What's going wrong and where?

Could I ask you to check this and if it is the issue you're having to please report it? http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/813098/we-need-your-help-patch-downloading-issues-in-the-...

hi @siany909, when you cant update the game via the launcher you need to use the manual super patch to update.

you also need to prepare your files for patching, see this how to update the game and for links to the manual super patch see section PROBLEMS INSTALLING PATCH, http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/735406/update-1-67-patch-how-to-install-problems-solution...

I must have clicked on the wrong link because i tried another link called the superpatch for mac which was at the bottom of the page and that one seemed to have worked. I wasnt sure what link i had to click on as there was so many so I tried the one at the top but that didnt work so then i tried this one. Thankyou so much for your help I really appreciate it and ill be sure to accept it as a solution!
