Where did you install your copy of CAW to? The path will be [Install Location]\ Electronic Arts\ The Sims 3 Create a World Tool \ CAW.exe.

I have version 1.18 i think, there is no patch for that version?

The patch has been updated for CAW version 1.18.3 (Sims 3 version 1.36).

Please check the first post for the tutorial link.

Thank you to Atavera for this!

@jackiekay1989- the new patch should work for you.

but i have verison 1.0.4532.19287 ... !??!!?

nevermind.. i read worldbuilder ini , its 1.18

Does it work for you, loken rocks?

Hello. I went through all the steps as shown on the tutorial, ran every program as admin, my versions are up to date and it still doesn't work... I get the "The system cannot find the file specified." and after clicking ok I get " The patch seems outdated! ... ; do not match!" I also noticed that when I merge with Tortoise to the 'project' folder I have a file that nobody seems to have. Sims3WorldPackagerCmd.cs . I don't know if that is of any importance. (See images below)

OS: Windows 7 64bit
Base Game = v1.36
Caw = v1.18

Also, if of any help I have the following expansions:

Ambitions/ Late Night/ Town Life Stuff/ Pets/ Showtime

I took off the files as you mentioned in IlSpy and redid the process and still no change.

nasu, have you tried the ready compiled executable?

Well that worked! thanks alot! :D

It seems that the patch does not need updating for the 1.19.3 version of CAW; although a new compiled exe is available. Please see the wiki article for details!

I am having some problems with this. I followed the instructions exactly and am having issues. I will attach pictures of me error messages. I saw the link about the pre-compiled executable...and forgive me for asking, but can someone possibly run through the steps using that instead of the original patch? I hope that will work, but I'd like to be walked through it so I don't make any errors. Please help!!!

Edit: Just attempted with precompiled version by myself and now all file patches in that left window are read instead of just two being red as before. PLEASE help! lol I really want this to work! Added image of this also!

I tried this as well...posted pic...everything is in red. I don't know where I'm going wrong, but it's not finding any of these files. I've been trying this for days now...

A quick question- what version of the game would be best to update to for CAW and the SuperCAW to work?

My base game is currently at 1.26.

I got this to work! Thank you simsample and atavera for the awesome work and your patient and thorough explanation surrounding the challenges. I am running Windows 7, fully patched 1.39 all ep and sp as well. My CAW version 1.19.3.018037. I did end up using the pre-compiled patch. Now to build Eggy's World!!!

Thank you so much for this simsample! I am having so much fun with SuperCAW! I even noticed that I have snow effects (among other weather effects)! It doesn't stick, but it sure looks pretty!

Hi,

I'm trying to open ILSpy.exe but I get an error message (shown on the picture I attached). How do fix this?

Did you make a folder for ilspy and then unzip ILSpy_Master_2.1.0.1603_RTW_Binaries.zip inside that folder? If so you should have a collection of files, one is called ILSpy.exe Just double click on it to run it. It does not want to open with an application, because it is an application itself.

I think you must have misunderstood some step of the instruction. Windows will never ask you what program to open an executable program with. What was the whole name of the file you double-clicked? Tell me the whole name including the bit after the dot. Can you actually see the bits of filenames after the dot, or do you have that turned off? Some people don't have the ends (file extensions) showing.

What happens when you double click on other .exe files?

All my other exe files work except the ILSpy.exe

Can't someone help me fix this problem?

Isn't someone going to help me fix this problem?

I hate to interject my problems when someone else is still trying to find solutions. But, EA has updated their version of CAW to 0.2.0.165. I don't know if this is what AlexBrooooooklyn273 is dealing with. But I was wondering if there was an updated version of ILSpy? or if ILSpy_Master_2.1.0.1603 will do?

Anyone help me please!!!!!

@AlexBrooooooklyn273,
I am curious to learn if you've read the Wiki article - the Errors section? There's a pre-compiled version to use if all things you've tried has failed. Or did the pre-compiled version also not work?

Please also state what version the base game is patched to and what version of CAW do you have? Game Help:Patch_Table^wiki
