Did you uninstall all Mods/Hacks before installing WA? I'm no Pescado so I can't be sure whether that is the root problem or not.

    1. What is your gameversion? How_to_find_your_GameVersion

      Copy and paste the first line of the skuversion.txt from the following locations, for whichever games you have:
      C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin
      C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 World Adventures\Game\Bin
      C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 High End Loft Stuff\Game\Bin
      C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 Ambitions\Game\Bin

      Quote:
      BG: GameVersion =
      WA: GameVersion =
      HEL: GameVersion =
      AMB: GameVersion =

Do not bump or multi-post, please. Read Site rules for all the Site's policies. Next time, I'll start issuing warnings and enough warning points accumulated will result in a temp ban.
