LD's Sims3Launcher (EA App/Origin) (1.69)

ASI Loader Update (Update 2)
- Replaced ASI loader with a "wininet.dll" proxy that works in EA App/Origin/Steam/Retail all the same. Load ASI mods option and the separate ASI launcher were removed as a result.

Update 1:
- Added EA Desktop App support for ASI mods.

This is a replacement for the 1.69 (EA App/Origin) version of the Sims3Launcher.exe

It features improvements, QoL changes and fixes that will hopefully make up for the Origin version getting the short end of the stick in some ways.

Overview
Expansions & Stuff is now the default panel.

Inlcudes an ASI loader for mods like Smooth Patch, Shadow Extender or S3SE.

The annoying “an error has occurred in the script on this page” pop-ups are now gone, and clicking on links will actually launch your default browser instead of MS Edge.

The minimize button now minimizes the launcher to the taskbar - a new "Minimize to Tray" button was added that covers its old functionality.

The launcher can be bypassed, so you don't have to go through it everytime while still loading ASI mods.

Expansion & Stuff Pack selection has been improved.

The Downloads, Installed Content and Uploads tabs now have extra filters for Worlds, Uninstalled Content only and a search feature to make it easier to find the content you're looking for.
