I have vcruns 05,08 and 10 also full dx9 and ie8 and wininet and vcrun6 installed.
I get a cuple of script errors at the launcher and the welcome screen in the launcher is blank and all white. The launcher launches the game and gets and installs content to the game correctly. The launcher may need a font installed as the text is a bit blurry but still readable.

If some one can tell how to switch the wine prefix to usle ALSA instead of PULSE audio that might help at least some things.
steve723 Monday 26 August 2013 at 20:32

I forgot to add there is a lot of sound stuttering while seasons is loading, especially during login. I am thinking that during log in the sound stuttering gets so bad that maybe that is causing the crash during log in.

That looks like a broken assertion in GnuTLS, probably because of improper use in a multithreaded context. Do you need native wininet?
Otherwise maybe it's fixed in another Wine version, but I assume you need a version with Origin patches.

About Pulseaudio, the Wine packages compiled for PlayOnLinux do not have Pulse support. So maybe your distro is configured to capture Alsa output or something, but there's nothing to modify from PlayOnLinux side to disable it: it's not supported.

Rats changing wininet to native didn't work. Do I need to copy it from Windows? If so where do I put it?
steve723 Tuesday 27 August 2013 at 1:32

I tried setting wininet to native,builtin. Now the game logs in but when I create a world it crashes to the desktop during town creation.

This morning everything but login began working. I suspect its because I shutdown my computer last night. Why dosn't login work? Maybey wininet isn't working. I tried every setting, native, builtin, native then built in and built in then native. All settings result in The Sims 3 launcher crashing except for Native then builtin, which allows the game to work except for login. I have Windows Vista on my other hard drive but it is 64 bit and the vd is 32 bit.

Scheduled Maintenance TODAY Aug 27 starting 4:00PM PST
TheSims3.com will be undergoing scheduled maintenance today (August 27) starting at 4PM PDT. The entire site - including the Exchange, Store, and forums will be down for several hours.

We thank you for your patience.
The Sims Web Team

I just found the above on the games forums. I guess further testing will have to wait. Maybe tomorrow or tonight they might get the games login to work.

It got The World builder working and The Sims 3 only crashes when I attempt to log in but I can play just fine as long as I don't try to go on line. The launcher works except for the add to game button but it auto logs in to my account so mabey the games is temporaly messed up do to all the web sites being merged into just thesims.com no more seperate sites for The Sims 3 and The sims 4 and The Sims Medieval.

I was right. I just had to wait until EA finished whatever they were doing to consolidate all their web sites. Now the game logs in like it is supposed to.
steve723 Saturday 7 September 2013 at 1:30
steve723Anonymous

Apparently they -EA- aren’t done switching things around because all of a sudden the game can't log in again and is back to crashing to the desk top whenever you try logging in with the game.
