How can I change The Sims 3 Region Code?

I have installed The Sims 3 on my mac but when I was trying to install Sims 3 World Adventures, a message appeared saying "The setup has detected that the regional install code for The Sims 3 is different than what this expansion requires. - This product requires The Sims 3 to have the same regional code in order to be installed" I bought The Sims 3 in Denmark (region 2) and World Adventures is from the US (region 1). Please help, how can I change the area code on The Sims 3 to be compatible with World Adventures??

You can try Leawo Blu-ray Player which is a region-free player. With it, you don't need to change the region codeDVD region code can be changed, but only for limited times. So before you change the DVD region code, you should think carefully because once you reach the max change time, you will not be able to change DVD region code again.

My sims3 game launcher says that my sims3 base game is incompatible with the sims3 expansion installed please update it via your game via game launcher. what can i do to resolve the problem?

Hi. I encountered the same problem when I install worlds adventures to my desktop. What solved my problem is to change the value of SKU file. To be able to change the value of that file follow these directions:
1. Go to RUN 2. Type in regedit 3. Open hkey local machine and then software 3. then sims and then sims 3 4. then you will find the SKU file try changing the value from 1 to 7 check if it should match your base game
Hope this helps your problem. Have a good day!

Sims 3 world adventures for mac region code

go to the application> show package content> content> resources> transgaming> c-drive> program files> electronic arts> the sims 3> game> Bin> Then open Default.ini with text edit. Scroll all the way down to the bottom where it says GameVersion = 1.8.25.003001 change the end one to 2 or whatever works for you like this GameVersion = 1.8.25.003002 then close and save. And that's it.

I got this off another site, tried it, and it works! I changed the number to 7, because somebody told me thats a universal number, but it worked for me in Canada. Good luck.

No problem.

Here is what you need to know:

The regional code for the US is (1).
You can change your DVD Region code up to 5 times on your Mac.

Review the information on DVD Regional codes via this Apple Support link to change the region code:
DVD Region Codes - DVD Player

Let me know if this Apple data helps!
