I'm not sure if there is a post for this already but how am I to download the client and login etc? Thank you!

heres what i did.

1)Install TSO
2)Use the PDPatcher ( https://github.com/Afr0/Project-Dollhouse/releases/latest )
3)Before doing anything else,Download the PDBootstrap.exe ( https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0KZrFd5LxQmbnU1MzQ0VXJjQm8/edit )
4)Drag it into the main directory. ( Program Files/Maxis/The Sims Online/TSOClient )
5)Run the file as administrator & Wait for it to finish patching.
6)When it finishes,it will launch the game,When it launches,Close it.
7)In the TSOClient Folder,Drag the Project Dollhouse Client.exe.config (Or copy it) to a different place,and inside of it with notepad or Notepad++ or something
7.5)And then in the Notepad,Go to a place where it says LoginServerIP and edit the xxx.xxx.x.x (whatever it is) and put down 173.248.136.133
8)To test if it works,Go to the game and try logging in.
8.5)Before testing,In your Documents folder,go to Documents\Project Dollhouse and delete the CharacterCache folder. THEN test it and try logging in.
9)If you succeed and enter the server,You've done everything right.
10)Enjoy.

It's a large download of ~1.25GB. Installed, the files take up 2GB on a typical Windows system.

Thats fine my only problem might be downloading it correctly lol

What about when it asks you to change discs when downloading??

 

[trent]

Nevermind think im getting it slowly but surely lol sorry

It shouldn't do that...

Yeah okay so I dragged the booststrap to my desktop and clicked to run as admin and run anyway but when the box pops up it still says it needs to run as admin any idea?

 

[xezno]

Hmm... Run in Compatibility mode for Windows XP (Service Pack 3)

 

[trent]

Really weird still saying I need to run booster in admin ugh

o_o Ehm... I guess only the developers can help here.

Don't drag the bootstrap program to the desktop! You need to create a shortcut to it if you want it there. The installer should have automatically created the shortcut for you.

It wouldnt let me open it as admin without doing that when I was trying to download it from the link? Still cant get it figured out idk if I need to remove everything and start from scratch or what im havin a heck of a time just gettin it all downloaded correctly

 

[Afr0]

You should just click the shortcut on the desktop. It should prompt you to run the updater as an admin.
