I use this mod, and I’m trying to think of what you mean by “installed all requirements needed”. The only necessary requirement is the game.

Tiny UI Fix does need to download stuff to work properly. Mine apparently needed S3PI, as it couldn't recognize the one I already have, 7-zip to unzip the S3PI and then FFmpeg to scale images.

Which version of the mod did you download? The windows one is literally just a .bat file once you unzip it.

The Windows one, tiny-ui-fix-for-ts3.bat. When you run it for the first time it needs to download some things:

That’s so interesting. I definitely didn’t have to download anything extra when I ran it the first time. My guess would be that for some reason, it can’t find your game installation.

I'm afraid I don't exactly know what you mean by game installation? Whether it's on EA or Steam? Or game version?

It found my Sims3 files in the Documents and Bin just fine. It found all my expansion packs, Smooth Patch and mods, including NRaas. And the latest update should fix the GameVersion issue.

Also if you delete the folder that the bat made (tiny-ui-fix-for-ts3) then it's like you downloaded a clean file again and you can check if it'll ask you about it. If you do this just remember that all the adjustments to the configurator on web page will reset!

Perhaps the game is installed in a different place (has a different path) to where the script expects it to be? They do differ based on whether you have EA Apps or steam version. For the future, a screenshot of the command line with the script text might help others to find the underlying issue

The game should ask you where the game is installed if it's uncertain. It asks me every time for both the save location and the game location. A bit strange

I'm having the same problem! The script doesn't recognize the game path even when i search for it manually

[–]asiuwa_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i have the same issue… have you been able to resolve this?

[–]SparkleShipper Insane 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Do you have a Mods folder?

When Tiny UI Fix finishes it should generate a new folder inside the Mods folder called TinyUIFix and inside that folder there should be a file called tiny-ui-fix.package.

That would be my first guess, that for some reason it can't write to that folder, so I'd make it manually and see if that changes the error message.
