I mean its only been a few years im what? 22 now :P Started this account back when I was 13 never thought I'd ever be back here. I deleted everything for a fresh start because lets be honest here. Teen me made me want to throw myself off a cliff I was so damned cringy and pathetic back then. I regret everything. But Im back now to be a cringy adult this time with just as bad art skills np.

So the launcher has been broken for about 7 months now saying "cannot start the launcher when game update is being installed" But no update is installing.
Now I have tried every way I could find to fix it (Reinstalling, Trying to manual patch it, etc) Nothing works. I want to install riverview again but I need to do so
without the launcher. I tried following Modthesims guide: modthesims.info/wiki.php?title… but
I just don't understand it!

Create a working folder on your desktop or other location, name it whatever you want :bademoticon:

Place the world Riverview.Sims3Pack in the working folder :bademoticon:

Run it through S3RC/Decrap (I think  I did it?) A black box opened when I dragged the file unto the Decrapify.exe then it dissapeared (Did it work?)

Run Sims 3 Pack Multi-Extracter :bademoticon:

Locate the largest size package, rename it to riverview.world :bademoticon:

Open riverview.world with S3PE :bademoticon: 
and extract STBL's to riverview.package in your working folder Colon Question Mark + plz
And that is where I got stuck!

Please help!

Everytime I open the launcher it says "error cannot start the launcher when a game update is being installed please try again after the install is complete" It is not installing a game update, its on steam I tried verify game and restarting, people online have tried reinstalling but it doesn't work. Anyone know a solution? It was fine yesterday.

Please help! :(

OKAY its gotten worse! I had been using TS3.EXE in Steam /steamapps/common/The Sims 3/Game/Bin and planned on just doing that untill the launcher was fixed BUT just today I got an error using TS3.EXE "Unable to start. Please reinstall the base game." I thought "I could try the other .exe" So I tried TS3W.exe and it came up with "Unable to start game Your the sims 3 base game is incompatible with the current sims 3
expansion pack. Please update you game Via the game LAUNCHER"

This is beginning to aggravate me!

A few days ago I got a sims 3 update on steam, ever since then every time I click play it gets past the maxis logo then crashes!
Do I have custom content in?: Yes, but shouldn't that crash it when you enter worlds not when you boot up the game?
I have nrass mods in and Some custom clothing, hair, paintings, couches, I have a skill book for cheating skills in, and I use CC Magic.
I have never had this problem before after a patch.

Any solutions?

Okay so I have sims 3 on steam, I registered my game to get stuff off their site.
Riverveiw was free so I clicked download, Something popped up about if I had it installed so I continued.
It never downloaded to my launcher and I don't know what to do to get it!

Help please!
