I recently had to refresh my computer's OS [One of Win8's functions I actually like!]. While it did not affect most of my files, I ended up having to reinstall Sims 3.
I am able to launch through the launcher, but my usual shortcut seems to have failed me. Here's what it looks like now:
@echo off
del "C:\Users\Axiom\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\CASPartCache.package"
del "C:\Users\Axiom\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\scriptCache.package"
del "C:\Users\Axiom\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\compositorCache.package"
del "C:\Users\Axiom\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\simCompositorCache.package"
del "C:\Users\Axiom\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\socialCache.package"
start /d "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 3\Game\Bin\"Sims3Launcher.exe
It says directory not found for the last one, no matter what I do for the last line. Everything else clears, but it doesn't boot.
Help?
