This user has the following games installed:

Sims 3, World Adventures, Ambitions, Late Night, Generations, Pets, Seasons
Default Patching order?
So I finally got my laptop back and I need to install TS3 again. When it comes to patching, is it best to patch the base game before I install the EPs or should I patch the game after I have installed all the EPs?

If there is a theard about this then I'm sorry, but I coul'nt find it. It is almost impossible to find the right theard when they are titled as "I really need help"?

Also should I run the game once before patching? It has been so long since I last this is all over again so I really don't remember lol.

No need. I never did.If you have problems patching or after, try the superpatch. Even if the launcher says you're patched, the launcher sometimes reports you are not. The superpatch is the best way to go in that case.

I can't seem to be able to install the super patch. Everytime I time I click the link it says 403 Forbidden..

If you are installing from discs, install base game, use super patch for 1.67, see post above for link. Then add EPs and SPs in release order (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sims_3).
Ignore any warnings about patch levels until you are done.

Shouldn't install all eps first and install the super patch?

Because if you install the super patch and all the eps after, those eps won't be patched.

Only the base game needs to be patched, since I think EP4. http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title...S3_PatchingEPSP

Thanks for the link. There are no patches since Late Night. That make sense but still ...

The wiki from your link does not have any sources.

I would like to see this information from official link. EA pearps?

To miarell: check on your computer if there is not something has been installed without your knowledge,
It might prevent you from downloading files.
