The Edit in Game only launches origin in CAW
I started creating a world that i am quite proud of but every time i try to edit in game, origin pops up and it never loads the game. I heard the only way to fix this is to uninstall the game completely and use a program call CCleaner to get every file of it out or something (I didnt read it completely, just skimmed through) IS THEIR ANY WAY TO FIX THIS WITHOUT COMPLETELY UNINSTALLING THE GAME??!!??!!??

It has to do with the base game, whether you have the older version or the newer "Go Social" version, which is the problem. Here: http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=540576

then is there a way to export the world, install it, and then edit on a saved game, then get the world from a save file or something?

You can export the world normally just fine and install it + edit in town mode but I don't think you can extract the world from a save file, though. I tried looking for a solution but in almost every help thread they suggest getting a copy of the older version base game (disk versions can be found pretty cheap these days). You can share a clean save game file containing the lots but I'm not sure how big in size it would be.

One guy back in official forum claims in many caw threads that there is a way to get it to work by messing with the registery but he was also proven wrong (he has the newer base game). Just thought of mentioning it and save you from the trouble: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/dis...e-for-go-social
