*If you're also reinstalling Expansion Pack(s) but ''without'' any Stuff Pack(s),
*#reinstall base-game,
*#test load the unpatched base-game first (via the TS3.exe),
*#then patch base-game to 1.7
*#*WA needs base game to be at 1.5 or higher
*#*after some experiments, found that patching 1.5 then install WA do not have the DeltaBuild packages introduced in 1.3/1.4
*#*this is also the last known good version with a working Launcher (as of Feb 17, 2010)
*#test load the patched base game first
*#install WA Expansion Pack
*#test load the unpatched Expansion Pack game (via the TS3EP01.exe),
*#then patch the Expansion Pack (you can go from retail to current patch version directly eg. ''2.2.x_from_2.0.x'')
*#at this point of time your gameversions are:
*#*Base GameVersion = Sims3_1.7.9.00200x
*#*WA GameVersion = Sims3_2.2.8.00200x
*#if you want to install Sims3Pack content, do it at this point
*#*only Sims3Pack compatible with version 1.7/2.2 or lower will be installed successfully
*#*Sims3Pack compatible with versions higher than 1.7/2.2 will pop-up an error:requires latest update blah blah blah
*#finally, if so desired, patch:
*#*base game to <insert-current-version-here> (eg. ''1.x.x_from_1.7.x'')
*#*WA to <insert-current-version-here> (eg. ''2.x.x_from_2.2.x'')
*#test load (via the TS3EP01.exe) a final time before installing CC framework and adding CC
*#CC can still be maintained in base-game's Mods path, if things do not appear verify the framework & CC version compatibility and then try them in the WA's Mods path
