Obtaining the crack and/or keygen
If you only need the crack you can download it directly from the orangeswarm servers:
- The Sims 3 - Crack (10.8 MiB, 117 hits) - Registration required.
If you also need the keygen we cannot directly help you with that since we do not provide you with keys, however megaupload does it for us, and you can grab a keygen here:
- Link to megaupload keygen location
- Password: www.orangeswarm.com
the keygen has a bit weard name, just open it and you’ll see its a keygen, reason we did this is this way megaupload doesnt check the files.
if this link dies please tell us in the forum so we can provide a new link
Sims 3 RELOADED version
Where to get it

- Install the game(dont install the download manager), you need a serial. (To get a serial browse the CD, go to the folder named “crack” and run the keygen that is in the folder.)
- Now do not start the game, but open the “Crack” folder again, and copy the file “TS3.exe” to “install.folder\Game\Bin” (this is usually C:\program files\sims 3\game\bin)
- Now the final thing you need to do is to prevent the launcher and main game from going online, just block them with ur firewall or whatever.

Known error’s
True time we collect allot of common errors, here are the ones we have a solution for for sure, if you have a error that is not listed here, please post it in the forum and we will look into it and post it here, with the solution we came up with!
- there is not enough space on sims3. you need an additional 15.1 megabytes to copy these files
Solution: This error usually occurs with the RELOADED version download, the solution is pretty simple… Copy the crack FROM your burned or virtual CD, or from your pc when you downloaded it from our website and pasty it over the default TS3.exe in the “C:\program files\electronic arts\sims 3\game\bin” folder. so dont try and copying it to your cd because that will cause this error message.
- there is not enough space on sims3. you need an additional 10.7 megabytes to copy these files
Solution: This error usually occurs with the RAZOR1911 version download, the solution is pretty simple… Copy the crack FROM your burned or virtual CD, or from your pc when you downloaded it from our website and pasty it over the default TS3.exe in the “C:\program files\electronic arts\sims 3\game\bin” folder. so dont try and copying it to your cd because that will cause this error message.
- there is not enough space on sims3. you need an additional 23.8 megabytes to copy these files
Solution: This error usually occurs with the Collectors Edition download, the solution is pretty simple… Copy the crack FROM your burned or virtual CD, or from your pc when you downloaded it from our website and pasty it over the default TS3.exe in the “C:\program files\electronic arts\sims 3\game\bin” folder. so dont try and copying it to your cd because that will cause this error message.
- Please insert disk 1 that contains the file Cache/SunsetValley.objectCache
Solution: This is a disk error, please redownload the game, we advise the RAZOR1911 version.
- File: E:\Caches\Sunset Valley.objectCache Error: The drive cannot find the sector requested
Solution: This is a disk error, please redownload the game, we advise the RAZOR1911 version.
- your video card does not appear to support at least Shader Model 2. Please upgrade your card.
Solution: Well, basicly this error means your video card is to bad (it has to support Shader Model 2) a possible solution is to get the latest drivers for your video card. The latest version of your video card is usually available at the manufacturers website.
- We were unable to verify that your disc is a valid copy of The Sims 3. Please contact customer service.
Solution: You most likely forgot to copy the crack over the correct executable, please check the install guide for your version to see how this is done.
Final Words
Now i hope this guide has made everything clear for you! if you think something in this guide is wrong and should be changed, or you have information (for example about errors) that you think should be added please let us know!
you can ask anything about this installation guide in here, and post your errors or other problems so we can figure out a solution for us! please try to be as complete as possible when posting your problem.

Sorry but this isn’t even helpful, pretty much none of those ‘error messages’ people aren’t even getting.
in fact, these are error messages alot of people were getting. we had a different forum before, and these errors where taken from that.

How do i pasty it over the default one? i tried just highlighting it and back clicking but there was no option to paste what do i do?!?!

Hey Cathy,
To copy the crack you just have to drag the TS3.exe from the CD or ISO (which you used to install the game) to the “C:\program files\electronic arts\sims 3\game\bin” folder. It will ask if you want to overwrite/replace the file, click Yes!
If you do not have a crack on the CD or ISO let us known and we will help you get it.
when i copy the crack over the TS3.exe file i get a dialog box displaying “error 202 unable to start game”
Just copy the crack and paste it into your installation directory… overwrite the original TS3.exe
I have windows 7 i apperciate the advice that you gave when i go to drag the the crack file with the Ts3 it does not work i dont know what i am doing wrong because it does not give me this option please help and thanks foe your patience
ace again i am using visual clone instead of deamon could this be a promblem to why this is not working correctly…… please help
well it might be the problem, i recommend trying it with daemon tools…

i try to run the keygen but it says i dont have access to it
hmmm that sounds strange… where do you run the keygen from? do you have administator rights on your pc?
anyway, i found this serial:
AA5D-AHLR-LTDL-LXEY-LYRW
you can try if that works, but im not sure.

My copy keeps exiting out… do you know why that happens?
What do you mean?
exiting out? you mean the game stops when you run it?
seairra
Posted on: March 1st, 2010 at 04:58
i extracted but i dont know what to mount
Alright, if you extracted any of the files, a .iso file should pop out.
Mount that iso file using daemon tools and follow the steps!

Posted on: March 1st, 2010 at 05:35
ok i mounted it but when i try to copy it doesnt ask me to replace it just syas there isnt enough room
See the known error’s section:
Solution to your problem:
This error usually occurs with the RELOADED version download, the solution is pretty simple… Copy the crack FROM your burned or virtual CD, or from your pc when you downloaded it from our website and pasty it over the default TS3.exe in the “C:\program files\electronic arts\sims 3\game\bin” folder. so dont try and copying it to your cd because that will cause this error message.
so you should copy the crack to the installation folder, not to the cd

Whenever i try to purchase anything, the program abruptly exits out. Doyou know why this happens?
Does it give you an error message or does it simply exit to windows?
if it doesnt give you an error message:
- does it ONLY happen if you purchase anything?
- can you build a house?
- can you do other stuff?

When run the programme an ea error message pops up telling me to redo the serial code but every time i put one in it is inavlid. Any help?
To get a working serial browse the CD, go to the folder named “crack” and run the keygen that is in the folder. or is that what your doing?

Heyy I’m not Too Sure Where The Iso File Is That Im Meant Be Mounting Because I Extracted The Main .Rar File But Its Not Anyway In There? Is It In One Of The Data1/2.rar File? If So The Files Wont Extract?It Says “The Archive May Be Damaged or Corrupt” ??? Any Would Be Appreciated ;D
Simply right click and “extract here” any of the rar files…
if it gives you that error message your going to have to redownload because your files are corrupt…

hey all,
I started installing the game, but installation process was canceled by error message:
CRC error: The file: C:\program files\electronic arts\The sims 3\game\bin\bin\cs-CZ\sims3-launcher.resources.dll doesn´t match the file in the setup’s.cab file. The medium from which you are running the setup may be corrupted; contact your software vendor.
Can you help me ?
If you downloaded the Razor1911 version and extracted the ISO file, instead mount it with Daemon Tools then install. I was having the same problem.
Hello again,
I tried with daemontools but it still say the same.
Anyone, Everyone, Please help…
Try this:
hope it works.
Still doesn’t work !
I will try and re download it using your link. I just hope it will finally work.
Thank you for your help though.
I will update you on my future success.

I am getting the message: “We were unable to verify that your disc is a valid copy of The Sims 3. Please contact customer service.” — I copied and pasted the two files correctly which they did replace the older ones, then patched the software. I have the correct version as it should be as shown in the image that was in the RAZOR download.
Why would i continue to receive this message if I installed/patched correctly?
Thanks

Nevermind… looks like the TS3.exe file that was included with the download was invalid. I downloaded the one here replaced the corrupted one and it corrected the problem.
Great

When does it exit you out? what are you doing at that point?
1 – for the graphics: try putting the visual settings to the lowest possible and see if that works, if it does just move them up untill it happends again and go 1 step back so they are good.
2 – for the graphics: try updating your video card with the latest drivers.

I downloaded the razor version with the link you provided us in this page. Everything went ok with the installing and copying the crack. However, when I want to start the game it loads for almost three seconds (the screen is black during this time) then it crashes and my desktop is up again. I downloaded many versions until now, and did almost everything I have read and yet I can’t play the game
does it give you an error message when it crashes?
nope…nothing…it just crashes
Hmmm… and your pc has the minimal system requirements? because stuff like tis often happends if it doesnt…
it has the double or triple of some
May sound stupid but have you tried reinstalling?
many times

Mount a patch?
you simply have to mount the .iso file and run that
or do you mean something els?
i used winrar and mopunted it with daemon tools and when i go to replace the file it doesnt give me that option i drag the crack in the bin folder and it just says not enough space i know that you must be so sick of all these questions but i have no idea what to do…..

I’m confused i downloaded the sims 3 reloaded torrent
mounted
installed
didnt install download manager
now… you say i need to put the crack ts3.exe in the C:\program files\electronic arts\sims 3\game\bin but i don’t have any files saying that..
when I go to electronic arts\ then i go to the sims 3\ folder then there folders that say downloads,exports, installedworlds, recorded videos, and screenshots.
i don’t see anything that says game\ for me to then go to bin..the only place i see that is in the cd and in this forum it says i shouldn’t paste it there because i’ll get an error that says I don’t have enough space
which i’ve gotten..what am I doing wrong?????
Paste it directly in the install directory “C:\program files\electronic arts\sims 3\” and overwrite the existing TS3.exe
theres no TS3.exe file in the \sims3 folder
but do I still just paste it there? or am I suppose to overwrite it?
paste it in there and run in… you aint browsing your cd right? but looking @ program files?

Posted on: April 12th, 2010 at 02:23
also i tried just playing to see what would happen
and it kept telling me I needed to connect to the internet
to verify i was the owner after connecting to the internet
it said i needed a registration number: it had the serial number in the box but it wasnt working
I’m guessing its a different number..I hope you can or someone can answer these questions I’m confused.
get yourself a serial somewhere
you can try: http://www.serials.be, but any site is fine really, just get a serials thats accepted
are the serial numbers the same as the registration numbers?
yeah i guess

Posted on: April 12th, 2010 at 22:18

Have you tried just doing it and than starting the game, is it still like that than? also… did you use our crack? or some other? because this might be a problem when using a different crack…

hi,
when i’m trying to instal the razor1911 version, i get this error:
file: H:\game\Bin\bin\cs-CZ\sims3launcher.recources.dll
wrong function (onjuiste functie)
i tried to instal it in safemode, same problem
i’m using Magic Iso to mount it (normaly works just fine…)
Hmmm well this has been posted before… and i didnt have a solution back than, however i might have found a fix for you now…
download Sims3Launcher.resources.dll.
and overwrite the file in H:\game\Bin\bin\cs-CZ\ this is at your own risk though, as i dont know that site…
however its worth the shot.
nope… just gave another error… now the file seemed not to be the same as the .cab? file in the setup file… or something like that…
whell… mean while i’m trying to download it again… ( that sucs, cause it has only 11 seeders at the moment :S) if someone comes up with something… i still like to know it
I really wouldnt know than… you download the torrent where we provide a link to?
nope, it had no seeders the last time i looked…
whell.. the new download did fully instal withoud a problem, and the sims is working now…
Hi morlajin. Can you tell me what link you used? Url?
i just lookt up a download at vuze.. sims 3 razor1911 the first one (finished or something)

ok I downloaded the razors verson, installed fine and then I got the valid disc error, so I copyed the ts3 crack to the bin file, same thing, now I downloaded the crack 1.6.6 and then 1.7.9 crack which were Ts3 app files put them in the bin folder (wich I have like 3 ts3 files in the bin folder) and now it will crash right before I use to get that message. any ideas what I can do to fix this
3 crack files? i dont get what your doing… just download the crack we provide and your done…
lee
Posted on: April 19th, 2010 at 22:28
When I try and copy and replace the TS3.exe file on the RAZOR1911 version from the Crack file, it makes no difference… it doesnt even let me replace it or paste it at all …
download the crack (we provide it)
copy the crack to the correct folder.
if the crack is inside a archive (.zip / .rar) extract it first, than copy it.
