i finally figured it out
so the first thing you want to do is do the standard install process with the sims 2 when it is finished do not open the application as you will need to do more stuff
when it is done you will need to install the patch but it says you need cd 4
i found a video with some files that help with that here : http://www.mediafire.com/file/lzbxtj51r6b6e6r/TS2_update.zip/file
what you need to do is extract it and copy or cut the files and paste it in your sims 2 files override everything and then you may install the patches
then you need to install mansions and gardens pack
if you are trying to install it and it says 'this app has been blocked for your protection' dont worry this video should help : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gjf0PxhGU0U
once you have installed mansions and gardens pack it will check if your sims is up to date and if you used the files correctly then it will say it is up to date
if it doesnt cancel the install and paste the TS2 updater files in the directory again
then it will be installed dont open it yet we are almost there
then you need to install the NO_CD file provided by abandoned ware when you install the mansions and gardens pack rar
and paste it in your TS bin then you delete all your desktop shortcuts for the game and make a shortcut out of the SIMS2EP9.exe in the mansions and gardens directory and hopefully the game will work if it doesnt im sorry
but it worked for me so doesnt hurt to try?

i did what Jude Williams said and i finally got the game to work after installing some files that allowed me to bypass the cd 4 thing and finally got the game to launch however for what ever reason the game would decide to have a 'fatal crash' every time the game would try and load. I was really hoping to play this game but atleast in my case the game is completely unplayable in the sense that it wont get past the loading screen

I'm having the same problem! It's installing as a DVD on its own with no space left to add a patch! @Jude Williams says it's supposed to be C:/Program Files/EA Games/The Sims 2
But I don't even have an 'EA games' folder! I'm obviously not knowledgeable of how computers work so I'm completely lost. I just want to play the sims 2 again :,(
TiredGamer2020-10-202 points
I tried all the tips in the comments but I can't get it to work. I installed it and it created an ISO file which windows happily opened on its own and made it into a DVD drive for whatever reason which I guess is right. I tried to install it but it said no CD so I did all the steps in the comments and even downloaded a patch, still with 'insert CD 4'. There was no CD folder as far as I can see.
I tried Dave's instructions and downloaded manual updates but I cannot install them in my sims folder as it says there is no more space so I can't install it and override the patches. I'm just so lost. I was really hoping this was going to work.
If anyone can help me out it would be greatly appreciated. I've spent like. 4 hours on this.

I need help with the Install can't get it to run. Contact me on discord: Dr. Retard#9175
Dave333332020-06-101 point
I finally made Teen Styles run.
Remember to install to the ROOT of your hard drive instead of the typical installation. Or it will be rendered inoperable. I spent a good amount of time working on this.
Inge2020-06-093 points
I followed the steps and it works perfectly for me. Thank you !!!!
Dave333332020-06-09-1 point
Can you put office on a mac. No matter how many times I try to run teen styles. The installer either freezes, renders the game inoperable. And at one time it finished and told me 'The Sims 2 was installed improperly.'
I tried different sources and this installer was made by Satan himself.
Dave333332020-06-090 point
New issues running the game. Mainly starting.
After installing all expansions, the game would trigger a BSOD so I started under administrator.
Evem then the game would crash. I have no clue which pack is the rogue one, but I'm slowly taking care of it.
Dave333332020-06-082 points
Okay. After some fiddling and using the instructions, I got it running.
First, and most important thing. On modern operating systems, the patch is broken, I even fetched a CD 4 iso, it crashed. You have to manually update it by downloading the update files (Can actually be found on a YouTube video, kinda easy to find I think.) and then manually dumping them into your installation directory, let everything overwrite, I'll try to send it over to the administrators of the site at a later time maybe.
Regardless, doing this and following the steps allows Sims 2 to run.
We've done it guys, we finally cracked it.
Dave333332020-06-080 point
When I try to run the patch, it asks for CD 4.

Jude Williams2020-06-072 points
If you do it this way you'll only need the cd crack from mansion & garden, cause it is the latest stuff pack. When Base+ M&G stuff work you can install the others without needing a crack and it wont ask for the cd from the other packs
Jude Williams2020-06-074 points
When I gave them the sims 2 files i also included a installation guide but that's gone i see. So I'll put it here.
Hello Gamer
It is important to pay attention to the following steps or the sims 2 might not work.
Please note the Sims 2 is an older game so it might not work on computer but you can always try. ;)
Step 1, Run the 'AutoRun' to start the installation proces (inside the Gamedata folder).
Step 2, When the game asks about the CD serial fill in the code inside the CD Keycode folder.
Step 3, After the Basegame has been installed do NOT boot up de game yet or it will not work. The game will ask you to insert the original CD.
You'll also need to Patch the game or you will not be able to install expansion packs and stuff packs. Inside the CD Keycode folder you can find the patch.
Step 4, Please install the last Stuffpack 'Mansion and Garden Stuff' the same way as the last 3 steps.
Step 5, When te 'Mansion and Garden Stuff' is installed try to search for the installation folder on your drive.
In most cases C:- Program Files- EA games- The Sims 2. Now open the TS Bin forlder off 'Mansion and Garden Stuff'.
Step 6, Now in the M&GS CD keycode folder there is ann .exe called 'Sims2EP9'. You will need to copy this to the TS Bin folder
you just found in Step 5 and replace it.
Step 7, Delete the sims 2 shortcuts created on your desktop and make one from the Sims2EP9 one.
You can now try to boot up the Sims 2. If it is not working I'M sorry my dear but try retracing step 5 and 6.
If it works and you can start to play you did it right and can install the other SP and EP's
Well done and enjoy playing the Sims 2.

I have the same problem as SORROWFALLSAWAY does anyone know how to fix it?
Empee2020-05-292 points
We need to wait for some brave & clever soul, who will find a suitable NoCD patch, that matches this exact version. Probably the one posted here is not correct. I sought but failed to find one.
kjsfh2020-05-220 point
I don't know what to do. it says I need to insert a cd but I cant find it
Retro Pixel Lizard2020-05-171 point
With or without the expansions, this is still the best of the entire Sims franchise. I even found a way to get rich enough to have a manor (If I could even design a manor) in less than 15 minutes without cheating, but that requires the open for business expansion.
If you got black rectangles under your Sims, open up the console (CTRL SHIFT C) and enter ' boolProp objectShadows false'.
Query2020-05-102 points
Is there a specific order you need to open the files to get the game to work without the disk?
SorrowFallsAway2020-05-108 points
I downloaded all the files, including the no CD and patch files. However, when I try to launch the game or the patch or the no CD fix, it tells me to insert a CD. I have it mounted to a virtual Drive in power ISO, but now I'm kind of at a loss. Anyone have any ideas?
