The Sims 3 Problem - won't go into live mode?

Get rid of the patch! Try to figure out where the file is and uninstall. That's probably the reason. If you wanna get custom Hair, Clothes, and other stuff like that, then go to the Sims3.com, make an account, and download peoples sim creation and if you lucky, the cool hairs and clothes should be in your game. . .
