You'll need to disable that add-on in order to use GameFAQs.Īre you browsing GameFAQs from work, school, a library, or another shared IP? Unfortunately, if this school or place of business doesn't stop people from abusing our resources, we don't have any other way to put an end to it. When we get more abuse from a single IP address than we do legitimate traffic, we really have no choice but to block it. If you don't think you did anything wrong and don't understand why your IP was banned.Īre you using a proxy server or running a browser add-on for "privacy", "being anonymous", or "changing your region" or to view country-specific content, such as Tor or Zenmate? Unfortunately, so do spammers and hackers. IP bans will be reconsidered on a case-by-case basis if you were running a bot and did not understand the consequences, but typically not for spamming, hacking, or other abuse.



If you are responsible for one of the above issues.

Should you be having the 0.0.0.0 issue with a NEW install of The Sims 3 and should you choose to re-install: After uninstalling TS3 (by whatever means), make sure that any "The Sims 3" folders - either under Steam/SteamApps/Common or under Documents/Electronic Arts - are deleted, before you attempt to install TS3 again.Īlso - should you attempt to verify the local steam cache (for TS3) - the two Windows Registry patch files will always fail to verify (possibly because these two files delete themselves after making the required Registry changes). Please Note: As an Undocumented Feature the in-game 'logins' (from either the Launcher or from the main menu) will respond with a failure message if you are already logged in! And the main menu won't recognize that you logged in via The Sims 3 Game Launcher!

This Registration, beyond allowing you to add certain Store Content, will NOT affect how The Sims 3 (from the Steam Store) plays on your computer.Īs all Store Content gets a version stamp during download and goes through a version verification during the installation process, said installation will FAIL - one way or another - if the displayed version (on The Sims 3 Game Launcher window) is 0.0.0.0! What works best for me is to have The Sims 3 Game Launcher open (with a valid version number showing - Launcher may be minimized, but should already be running), then log into in an Internet Explorer window and initiate the download process from the IE window.

Registering your The Sims 3 CD-Keys (each one valid only once) on an account, at either or, should either unlock some rewards content from (or get you SimPoints that you may spend at) - and will unlock a digital download, in the Origin client, of the corresponding The Sims 3 item. These will continue to display, whenever you start TS3 from your Steam Library, until you respond with the "Don't show this to me again" button.

The display of your TS3 CD-Keys is an FYI NOT an indication that further registration is required. Any valid game patch from Steam will come via a Steam download, just like the original game download did NOT to be confused with a Store Patch. I suspect any patch offered before you attempt to access should be declined. The Sims 3 downloaded from the Steam Store shouldn't need a patch (at least not before you attempt to access ) this download is locally registered - in Windows Registry - so should run just fine without registering with EA / Origin / / / etc.
