(Literally insert disc 1, press install to start the installer which directs you when to install each additional disc.) If another version of Sims 1 is already installed, it will simply install over the top of the previous installation and add all expansions to any and all existing neighborhoods. but once it's running, it works/plays flawlessly.I also have Complete Collection and can confirm it's an "all or nothing" installer. The only way i could get mine to run is to right click the sims.exe icon and "run as administrator". Following the steps above with the mod linked worked. After that it would refuse to launch the game. Hopefully this helps anyone who's spent hours searching the internet trying to find a solution to this issue. If not, remove the new Sims.exe and change the old one to it's original name.
Make sure you keep this file in case the new one doesn't work.ģ.) Download the file and move the new Sims.exe to the same folder (:C > Program Files (x86) > Maxis > Sims).Ĥ.) Launch, run the game in compatibility mode if necessary.ĥ.) If it works, enjoy. Obviously you will have to own the game too for this to work.ġ.) Make sure you already have the game installed on your computer.Ģ.) Go to :C > Program Files (x86) > Maxis > Sims. I own the game and installed it on my computer via the installation disks. Please note that this is not a link to a pirated version of the game, just a fixed Sims.exe that will allow the game to launch on Windows 10. Google Drive also scans anything you upload with it's antivirus, but regardless use at your own risk. I scanned it with my anitvirus and it came up normal.
I have uploaded it to Google Drive, as the website I found it on was a bit sketchy. A modified Sims.exe to do this can be found here: Installing the mod that bypasses the disc and running the game in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP2 fixed the problem for me.
