⚠ Release Notes for Update v1.51.77.1020
Fixed an issue where custom text was not always displaying properly in-game.
Fixed an issue where NPC invites to festivals or to residences were sending Sims to an incorrect destination.
There is still a lingering issue regarding invites to events in Get Famous, such as the talent showcase, and celebrity sightings. We are continuing to investigate those for a future update.
Fixed an issue where Mac players on certain older versions of OS X were unable to launch the game. As a result, we rolled back a fix that was done for Mac players on 64-bit systems that eliminated a false error message which said, “The Sims 4 is not optimized for your Mac and needs to be updated.”

The Sims 4 Freelancer Update – 4/16/2019 – PC 1.51.75.1020
New Career – Freelancer
Freelancer is a brand-new type of career. Sims can choose to be a Freelance Artist, Programmer, or Writer, and will work through an agency that will connect them with a variety of gigs. Unlike other careers, there’s no defined work schedule to worry yourself over. Need some extra Simoleons? Smash through a few gigs in a single day and get paid! Need some time off? No problem – plenty of gigs will be waiting for you when you’re ready to get back to work. Your office is wherever you want it to be. Perhaps a quiet corner in the local library, or maybe you’d prefer a home office decked out in the new set of office furniture? You’re your own boss, so the choice is yours! Completion of gigs across the different agencies will lead to a variety of rewards, and ever-increasing pay.
It is the main attraction / new functional feature of this free update, consisting of three main branches: Freelancer Writer, Artist and Programmer.
hi, im having an issue. when i play the lots disspear and appartments won’t even load… how do i solve this?
Ouch. No idea, sorry. Try to open a topic at Games4TheWorld Club
The loading time is very long and it hangs a lot. The gameplay lags and is annoying. Please help me solve this issue and if there is some update that can help, please guide me to it. Thanks.
Sorry to hear that. The performance of the game is dependent on the specifications of your computer, both hardware and software. The Sims 4 can be a heavy game when you have all the content installed, and the Origin version is even slower, hence why there’s are off line repacks without Denuvo.
Hi, whenever I try to the launch the game, I wind up with this message:
“Unable to start:
Cannot start because required game data is missing or damaged. Please repair or reinstall the game via Origin.
[85262c58:27f00e76:00000000:00000000]”
It’s probably something I missed, but is this a common error and if so how could I fix this?
Oh, first make yourself sure the anti virus did not remove anything, then be sure Origin is NOT running. Then, please download and run The Sims 4 Validator. Please let me know if it helped you.
Yep, that worked. Thanks! Changing the torrent downloader also helped.
Awesome! Which torrent downloader were you using before and which one are you using now (that works better)? I used uTorrent before, but now I use Tixati, thanks to @Anadius teaching me it was better.
I was using uTorrent, but I switched to Deluge.
Nice! I heard of it but never tried, I use Tixati myself.
Hi, can i know what does it mean by “Application TS4_x64 has been blocked from accessing Graphics hardware” ? Anyone know what should i do?
Interesting, I had never saw that before. It seems that it’s very likely a problem with your graphics driver, so you need to download the latest version of the graphics driver manually from the manufacturer, then uninstall the current one and install the new after. Hopefully it helps.
Hi, I’m hoping I could get some help. I followed the instructions exactly and tried to run the game and it does but then crashes right after the EA logo without any error messages. Not sure what to do, the original game from origin than I installed runs flawless but this cracked version has that issue. Hoping someone can advice me?
Check your anti virus history and unblock if there’s anything there in the game folder (or the torrent you downloaded). Run the game in windowed mode, you can change the settings.ini to do that, it’s always better. Run The Sims 4 Validator to check if any file is missing. If nothing works, please open a topic in the Games4TheWorld Club
Hi I was wondering if you can help. When I download the torrent there are barely an seeds and it says the game will take 2 weeks to download. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you in advance 🙂
Sometimes it shows things like that. I only seed it myself when I have my computer on, but there should be many other people seeding it as well. It gets better after a while.
I need help installing because I don’t see download or am I too late?
There are instructions on the video and the page you’re visiting.
can I use mods on this version of the game, I have the base game from origin and this, I don’t see a way of accessing the gallery or using mods
This version does not have on line access, so you need to use The Sims 4 Gallery instead.
You can install mods and CC normally by downloading them and placing them on the right folder like you’d do with an Origin version.
Hello 🙂 Thanks for the torrent 🙂 Well I have a question, do mods run on this one?
Hi! Yes, they should work normally, as long as the version number is compatible with the mod or custom content you’re installing.
So the size of file that i need to download is 32 GB right? Am i downloading the right thing?
Yes, it’s the entire game, hence why it’s large.
How do we get the “free stuff” like the holiday collection and the guitar??
You just use one of The Sims 4 – All in One versions available…
DISREGARD WHATEVER I SAID PREVIOUSLY
IT WORKED AND IM REALLY PLEASED SO FAR THAN YOU SO MUCH 🙂
Awesome!
Hi, I tried following your instructions to download C++, starting with 2013, however it said “Setup Failed: 0x80070003 The system cannot find the path specified”. I’m not sure what this means, but can I really not play the game if I don’t have all three C++ installed? I can play my Origins version of Sims 4 just fine without having installed C++ beforehand.
If Origin’s version is working on your machine this one will too, therefore you do not need to worry about installing Visual C on it, because it likely has it already.
Perfect, thanks!
Did it work?
I’m finally able to try it out and see if it works, and I just wanted to check where I should be placing CC for my game! I can’t find a Mods folder like I have for my Origin copy of the game – do I need to make one? Thanks!
Don’t you install mods in your documents folder?
step 4 says to install both 32 and 64 bits but I’m only seeing 64 and not 32 but instead 86. do I still install the 86?
I’m also having trouble where it won’t allow me to install 64 in the 2013/2015 and 2017 folder… what should I do to fix the problem?
okay, nevermind about the 2013 and 2017 folders it’s the 2015 folder that doesn’t want to download what should I do here?
I have tried to download this multiple times and I encounter a disk write error, but my uTorrent is run as administrator and I have tried everything but nothing is working, have you got any advice on what I can do
Ouch. Sad to hear that. Is the disk full? Check your anti virus, perhaps it’s blocking something.
Whenever I try to download your torrent, it says error writing to disk, I have tried everything and its still the same
I don’t know what to do, sorry. Check for your writing permissions, your anti virus settings (it might be removing a few of the files because it flags the unlocked version of the game as a false positive) and if you have space.
Can I download all the DLC to my origin base game?
Yes, you could, but then you would have to NOT run the game on origin anymore. It’s wiser to have a separate folder for this version of the game.
So i’ve followed all of the instructions and I get the torrent to open in my downloader client and I get this message.
Downloading From :magnet:?xt=urn:btih:uz…
Waiting for DDB initialization…
Searching…
Metadata download created
Trying secondary lookup service
Secondary lookup failed: no sources found

Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
Sorry to hear you’re having problems. Not sure what might be happening. Do you download other torrents normally?
I haven’t had any other problems downloading torrents at all, just this one. Weird…
Very weird, because it works here.
Hey i couldnt get the torrent to auto open. Any advice on this?
Do you have uTorrent, Tixati or another client already installed?
Hi, I can find the download button. Could you help me out?
It’s usually on the last page, you need to read the article to find it.
Can we access the gallery if we use this?
With the off line version of the game you can access the gallery on: The Sims 4 Gallery
Origin has The Sims 4 for Free right now (for another hour or so, then they stop giving it), if you want to access the gallery from within the game (Origin version only, base game only): The Sims 4 FREE – Official from EA!!!
Hi! Does this work on IOS? (I play in Origin.) Downloading it now
No, it’s made for Windows, sorry. You will need a Windows emulator on your Mac do use this version.
I like the idea of a portable version, but the included instructions say I have to install it to C:\Program Files\The Sims 4… so it’s not really portable/independent of install path? I’d like to avoid C drive as it’s a small ssd and I have a much larger D drive…
It is portable, you can install it anywhere you prefer. I just have that instruction to give a default location for people who’d like to have a “standard” installation, but the game should run no matter where you save it, as long as you have permission to modify and run files in the location, of course. It also works with USB drives.
Great, thanks!
On the disk size issue, you can use symbolic links for other software as well, if you want to make them think they are still in their original location. I have two SSDs and I moved some programs to the second one, then created a symbolic link pointing there. The system treats the new location as the old one and everything works well (I have Adobe software etc installed this way, because I moved it after installing).
I am unable to get the download link. Adds keep on popping up. What am I doing wrong?
Your browser should be showing you an ad page after you click on my link, but you should be getting the torrent automatically downloaded in your torrent client (Tixati, uTorrent, etc). Please check there and let me know if it starts downloading it or if you get a notification.
the no-origin-fix-1.51.77.1020. rar file aka the crack seems to be corrupted. it says the archive is either unknown format or damaged whenever i try to unzip it.
I don’t know what could be wrong. I’d advise you to stop your torrent client, delete the file, open the torrent client and do a file verification, meaning your torrent client will check all your downloaded files and redownload the file you just deleted. Hopefully it solves your problem.
