=== Compilations and the Launcher ===
''The Sims 2 Double Deluxe'', ''The Sims 2 University Life Collection'', ''The Sims 2 Best of Business Collection'', and ''The Sims 2 Fun with Pets Collection'' all include the Launcher.
====The Sims 2 Double Deluxe====
''The Sims 2 Double Deluxe'' includes the base game, ''[[The Sims 2: Nightlife]]'', and ''[[The Sims 2: Celebration! Stuff]]'', and the player cannot decide which parts to install. Since ''Celebration! Stuff'' is based on ''[[Open for Business]]'', it can be assumed that its executable (Sims2SP4.exe) will be used to start the game unless the player has a later stuff pack, or an expansion pack later than ''Open for Business''. This file should be located in <code>EA Games\The Sims 2 Double Deluxe\SP4\TSBin</code> .
====The Sims 2 University Life Collection====
''The Sims 2 University Life Collection'' contains ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'' as well as ''[[The Sims 2: Teen Style Stuff]]'' and ''[[The Sims 2: IKEA Home Stuff]]'', and the player can decide which ones to install. The paths to the executable files should be
''University'':<br />
<code>EA Games\The Sims 2 University Life Collection
\EP1\TSBin\Sims2EP1.exe</code>
''Teen Style Stuff'':<br />
<code>EA Games\The Sims 2 University Life Collection
\SP6\TSBin\Sims2SP6.exe</code>
''IKEA Home Stuff'':<br />
<code>EA Games\The Sims 2 University Life Collection
\SP8\TSBin\Sims2SP8.exe</code>
Both stuff packs are based on the ''[[The Sims 2: Pets|Pets]]'' expansion pack, so neither Sims2SP6.exe nor Sims2SP8.exe will be used if a later expansion pack is installed. Sims2EP1.exe will only be used if no Packs other than ''University'' are installed.
====The Sims 2 Best of Business Collection====
''The Sims 2 Best of Business Collection'' contains ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business]]'' as well as ''[[The Sims 2: H&M Fashion Stuff]]'' and ''[[The Sims 2: Kitchen & Bath Interior Design Stuff]]'', and the player can decide which ones to install. The paths to the executable files should be
''Open for Business'':<br />
<code>EA Games\The Sims 2 Best of Business Collection
\EP3\TSBin\Sims2EP3.exe
</code>
''H&M Fashion Stuff'':<br />
<code>EA Games\The Sims 2 Best of Business Collection
\SP5\TSBin\Sims2SP5.exe</code>
''Kitchen & Bath Stuff'':<br />
<code>EA Games\The Sims 2 Best of Business Collection
\SP7\TSBin\Sims2SP7.exe</code>
''H&M Fashion Stuff'' is based on ''Open for Business'' while ''Kitchen & Bath Stuff'' is based on the ''Pets'' expansion pack, so none of the executables in this compilation will be used if ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]'' or later is installed.
====The Sims 2 Fun with Pets Collection====
''The Sims 2 Fun with Pets Collection'' contains ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]]'' as well as ''[[The Sims 2: Family Fun Stuff]]'' and ''[[The Sims 2: Mansion & Garden Stuff]]'', and the player can decide which ones to install. The paths to the executable files should be
''Pets'':<br />
<code>EA Games\The Sims 2 Fun with Pets Collection
\EP4\TSBin\Sims2EP4.exe
</code>
''Family Fun Stuff'':<br />
<code>EA Games\The Sims 2 Fun with Pets Collection
\SP1\TSBin\Sims2SP1.exe</code>
''Mansion & Garden Stuff'':<br />
<code>EA Games\The Sims 2 The Sims 2 Fun with Pets Collection\EP9\TSBin\Sims2EP9.exe</code>
:This executable '''will''' be used if ''Fun with Pets'' was used to install ''Mansion & Garden Stuff''.
''Family Fun Stuff'' is based on ''Open for Business''. Sims2SP1.exe will not be used if any later stuff pack is installed, or if ''Pets'' or later is installed. Sims2EP4.exe will not be used if ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]'' or later is installed, and may not be used if ''Teen Style Stuff'', ''Kitchen & Bath Stuff'', or ''IKEA Home Stuff'' is installed.{{confirm}}
