Does this game work from cd? I tried once and it didn't work, install works fine but when i try to start game then sims2 logo splash on the screen and it go away than nothing.


Same here, I'm uninstalling SP2 now, maybey that will help. Confused

Try this, since it worked for me.

Mount the CCD file and NOT the .CUE file.

That's what got it working for me.

... if you don't have a CCD file, then I have no idea.

Dudes, when i'm playing the sims2 for like about 10 minutes my system freezes and the game hangs. It will need a cold boot to restart again. Does anyone else got the same problem? Using dtools for emulation with directx9.0c. Specs: 2.4Intel, Geforce5600

Anyone else got a idea or has the same problem?

Grtz!


Try reading the readme (in the sims2 dir) there is something in there about that.

I don't know if anyone still care to get this release to work if they didn't do it yet and are now waiting for a crack but here's what I did:
I burned the images on CD-Rs using Alcohol120_trial_1_9_2_1705 with the default settings, opening the cue files and burning @ 8X speed. After I installed those 4 CDs, I inserted the 1st CD and in a few seconds I was playing the damn game.
Btw, I gotta mention, I don't have CloneCD installed.
Now, a no-cd crack would be nice... Smile

I can play the game fine on my laptop, with the first cd emulated in Alcohol 120%. But i can't burn the freakin cd's. Every time when I start the game, I need insert cd 1. So the game isn't burned properly on cd 1. How should the settings be? I'm also using Alcohol120_trial_1_9_2_1705.

cheers.

oh btw, to all people with mounting problems, here is what I did :


I installed the latest daemon tools version, set emulation for All options ON, mounted the cd's and installed it. Worked fine Smile

This did NOT work when I tried it with an older version of D-Tools.

Are you leaving Alcohol running ? as i "think" it is needed to provide the emulation for your burned cd

If you have problems getting Sims 2 running with Alcohol or Daemon, i.e. you get the "you have a cd-emualtion software running" message, try unsintalling CloneCD. That solved it for me and I'm using Alcohol 120% 1.9.2. Build 1705.
