Pack Order
 

Which came first, Uni or NightLife?

My friend has Deluxe, which has Night Life, and wonders which CD she'd have to play with if she got Uni, Deluxe or Uni....

Uni was the first expansion Pack. NL was the 2nd. If I understand what you are asking tho, the game demands the latest CD regardless of which order you loaded the EPs (stuff packs don't count except M&G).

I always load all the EPs except the last one, patching as I go, then all the stuff packs before I load the last EP and it's patches. Why, cause I can never remember the order when the stuff packs came out and the launcher always asked for the last EP even tho the last thing loaded was a SP. When I reloaded last time, I loaded M&G before Freetime. When I booted up, It asked for the M&G CD, not FT. For some reason, EA decided it was a EP. Also, during the loading I loaded OFB & Pets backwards and I got all kinds of messages telling me I was loading something that was older than what I had on the system.

To make the new roofs and stuff work with M&G, they had to make changes in the executable, not just new objects, so that's why you have to play with the M&G CD.

Thanks for the reminder!
