Talk:Launcher

Factual correction
Although I had always been able to get into my Sims 2 before (I have all of the expansion packs), I suddenly could not. I did as the walk-through suggested, and everything worked just fine--until today, when I'm right back tot the same problem. I have to disconnect the internet in order to launch Sims. Any more suggestions or ideas? Really, there should be a way to have just the launcher and disable the internet part of it. ~lbaumer~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.63.3.22 (talk • contribs) (UTC) - Please sign your comments with ~
 * Could you try to describe what you did in steps? You could've not followed the method properly to bypass the launcher. Try reading this.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  01:58, November 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Also, do you have use a compilation disc and shortcut (e.g, Best of Business or Fun With Pets) to start your game? Dharden (talk) 23:44, November 27, 2013 (UTC)

The Launcher and TS2 compilations
Judging by the two Stuff Packs I installed from a compilation (H&M and K&B from Best of Business), a compilation that includes the Launcher will place "Sims2Launcher.exe" in any folder where it places an executable that can start the game. I don't know how much help that it, since the Launcher can presumably identify the proper executable even if it is not in the same folder. Dharden (talk) 22:57, December 29, 2013 (UTC)
