I hope this helps.

I heard I may be able to get help with this here. My HD recently went boom and this time around I figure I'll avoid getting SecuROM along with my Sims 2. When I found out about it I had already had Sims on my pc for years so I let it be, and therefore I have not done this before.

I've been trying to google and I find a lot of links, but most of them are very old and no longer help. At this point, what I am trying to find is a working no-cd crack for a fully patched game with all EPs and SPs. From what I've understood, that would be a replacement for M&G exe. I can find random ones, but I don't think it's a good idea to trust just any exe you find and I'd rather get one that someone else has used and that works for them. I figure there's a lot of people out there that does avoid SecuROM that can recommend the one they are using =)

I hope I'm in the right section. I tried a site search and this seemed to be where questions related to it were. I also tried to see if I could find a link, but I only found references to no-cd cracks and "let me know if you need it"-comments. It didn't feel right to pm random people that offered to share two years ago, so I figured a thread would be better.

I do have NL.

And I'm checking out all the above now!

EDIT: Alright, it says the bed is intended for those with NL as their highest EP. I have uni, NL, Pets, and Seasons. Would that be an issue?

This is DMA Sims, where they have their various NPC's for the game. I don't recall if you have to pay for them, but the premium sets were just that, I think.

However, there is a place called The Booty, where you can get the same ones without registration.

It's been a long time, but I believe if you use DMA Sims, OFB is not required.
