Sims 3 Into The Future Key

[Marie Ota]

Ihad to have a new hard drive installed in my computer now I cannot get Sims 3 into the Future to install I keep getting an error message I have tried to contact EA they sent me one email telling me to close background apps and uninstall the EA app and reinstall it I've done all of that I've tried to run a repair on the game I've uninstalled the game and reinstalled it and still have the same problem. Is there anyone that can help me?

@jenynya I'm sorry, I don't have any other suggestions. You'll need to wait for EA to fix the issue on their end. I or someone else will post any new information in this thread, so feel free to subscribe to get updates.

@puzzlezaddict I take back what I said this actually works. When I first installed origin again it kept having connection failures but I tried today and it worked pets downloaded, I'm gonna leave it for longer and hope university installs as well. Thank you so much!

I recently had a new hard drive installed in my computer and my Sims 3 into the future will not install. I have tried to get help from EA tech support about a week ago and I have only received one email and that was the only option they will give. I have run a repair on the game uninstalled and reinstalled both the EA app and the game including all or the game packs. I can't seem to get any help help through EA for some reason. I don't know what to do. Is there someone who can possibly help me? Im attching a screenshot of the error message I'm getting.

I am having some troubles installing the Sims 3 - Into the Future expansion pack. I went to the sims website and purchased the pack, and went to install it though Origin. The only issue is that when I go to my game library and attempt to download the game itself, a dialogue box appears and says,

"It seems the base game for this DLC was not installed through Origin. For The Sims 3 Into the Future to work, you must:

1. Select Uninstall Now below, locate the base game. and follow the on-screen instructions to uninstall it.

2. Download and install the base game through Origin by selecting it in My Games and clicking download.

After that, you can download and play the Sims 3 Into the Future."

My question is what is the base game? The original Sims 3 game that I purchased? I have tried uninstalling the entire Sims 3 and reinstalling it, but the Into the Future expansion pack still will not allow me to download it because of the 'base' game. Anyone know how to go about fixing this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

I don't work or have any association with EA. I give advice to the best of my knowledge and cannot be held responsible for any damage done to your computer/game.

Please only contact me via PM when asked to do so.

I did some research and saw the post regarding the DLC compatibility issue that some people have been experiencing when attempting to run their games. However, if I attempt to solve the same problem from the post on 'DLC Compatibility Issues", I get the error message that says, "Windows prevented the application from creating a download directory. Please accept the UAC prompt to begin downloading this game." I've tried lots of different methods of uninstalling the original Sims 3, and all of my expansion packs, does anyone have any advice? I would be more than grateful for any info on how to solve this problem

having same problems but mine tell me to go to laincher and update sim3 before installing but launchers says already updated een when refreshed. so i try to install pc downloaded into the future again with same message can someone help with this

im having the same problem and would really like it fixed so i can play the game all my other ones will install but this one it says i need to update my lancher wich right now it is at 1.42 and it that says im already up to date i just really would like to play the game with out this problem and its confusing me horribly and slightly making me made that i cant play a game i paied for

"Setup has detected that the sims 3 is corrupted or not installed.

Setup is unable to continue"

Why this is happening to me??

My sims 3 is not corrupted and it is installed too.I have no mods also.

So why this is happening?

I, too, am having a problem downloading The Sims : Into The Future expansion pack. I just recently bought it from the sim store. When I tried to download it, it says: Before you can download The Sims Into The Future, you must first update The Sims 3. From the launcher, my sims is already updated to 1.67, but I still can't manage for Origin to recognize the fact that it's already updated so I can download the expansion I just paid for. I think from here on out, I will be buying hard copies instead of downloads because I don't have money to be wasting on things that don't work. Do you have any idea of how I can get it to work properly?? I have uninstalled & reinstalled & nothing is working!! HELP!!

The Sims 3 Into the Future Expansion Pack introduces a new Futuristic World and Skills, Careers, Objects, Sim clothing and hairstyles to fit the experience. This summary of Expansion features will let you know what you'll get when you buy Into the Future and link you to in-depth strategy guides for the new gameplay elements. Into the Future is the last Expansion Pack, heralding The Sims 4 which is currently planned for release in Fall 2014. With some exploration, you will find little easter eggs and teasers for TS4. I'll feature plenty of screenshots on this page to show off this beautiful Expansion.

The Future World of Oasis Landing

Oasis Landing is not a world you choose when creating a new game, but one that Sims can travel to (much like a travel destination in World Adventures or Attending Sim University. When first loading the game, a Time Traveler named Emit Relevart will appear and give you an Opportunity to help him. Once this easy task is completed, you are given an Almanac of Time and the ability to use the Time Portal to visit the Future. While a Sim (or Group of Sims) is in Oasis Landing, time will freeze back home while the Sims time traveling will continue to age and may gain skills, join careers, or simply have fun and enjoy Futuristic amenities.

If you are looking for a Time Portal, you can find them in Buy Mode > Sort by Room > Outdoors > Outdoor Activies. It's the Wellsian Time Portal for $725. The Portal that appears in your world can be Deactivated and then placed in your Sim's inventory, so you can choose where you place it. While the portal is active, click Travel to the Future (or Travel to the Future with..) to head on in.

An Introduction to the Future

Most of the more complex mechanics are covered further in this guide, but there are some interesting things about Oasis Landing and the technology that developed over the years. First, there is no Ocean, but a Wasteland outside any of the Futures you visit. I'll leave reading the storyline and discovering why up to you. Advanced Technology reigns and Sim life fully revolves around it. Cars hover and Sims can get around on the ZEPHYR monorail system, pictured above. Elevators are engineered into tubes that move faster than usual and televisions are now projected like holograms in ultra high definition. The internet has been changed to a holoweb and the floating Orb computers can be used anywhere. Plumbots serve Sims in shops and out in town, while others are Sentient and free-thinking Robots. You are able to buy and upgrade these. Sims can get around on Windcarvers, which are like skateboards that hover. This can be used instead of walking when you click it in the inventory. Sims can also travel by Jet Pack, but you should be aware of the dangers of that activity and have plenty of Advanced Technology skill to use them, so see that section on this page. In fact, many of the new objects depend upon your Advanced Technology skill level to determine what will happen when you use them and the animations Sims use while performing those actions.

Sims eat with Food Replicators instead of Stoves (which can't even be bought as far as I can tell), and have access to all-in-one bathrooms to take care of Hygiene and Bladder needs at once, or a Sonic Shower for a quick cleansing. You may fill your social need with the new holo disc, which is like a digital pet that can be shared with other Sims and even change forms, which you can collect. Overall, the Future provides Sims a much easier life and most everything is more efficient although I found transportation tracking to be a little lacking without owning an Automobile or having skill to safely use a Jet Pack.

If you really like the Future World and want to build a Home there, you can do so by using the Cell Phone. Most of the homes are expensive and so are lots, but that's just what happens... inflation, eh? The Future isn't very Child-friendly and you can't really raise them there, so treat it as a vacation for them and let them attend regular school in the Present. It doesn't mean they can't benefit from Future Tech, however.

Descendants

One thing is consistent in either of the three Timelines. Your family will have persisted through the years and you'll have Descendents. Depending on your family net worth and family composition/size, you will have different Descendents in varying circumstances living in the Future. There may be many poor descendents living in a home or a lone wealthy Sim in a mansion, all depending on how wealthy your Sims are and how many children they've had. So, you will get different outcomes when you travel back and forth, earning more money, getting married, and having or adopting children. Moving in friends will also result in them having some Descendents, so your entire Household is checked. You will be told when you have changed the future through your gameplay in the present, and notified of the address of any future Descendents when you once again enter the Time Portal.
