You are on macOS trying to run a windows batch file that has Windows paths in it. That's a no go even if you could get the right interpreter for it.


Eshuon

Silly op


DoYouEvenSheesh

> Be OP > Use MacOS > Run a bat file which only runs on windows > WTF why isn’t my SIMS SIMMING


christopher_msa

There are two pairs of things that don't go well together. 1. Oil and water 2. Apple and piracy Stop using apple products to pirate stuff.


SnooPeppers6805

You can get lots of cracked mac apps.


BlueBackground

Mac and piracy is super easy💀


Danub123

Not if you're OP lol


That_Guy_Quaid

Just got a MacBook last week and it’s been fine for pirating


[deleted]

mac piracy is not hard, sometimes ive found it less complicated and even (rarely) easier than windows.


Defaalt

Lies of P was cracked day 1 on macOS.


ghostlypyres

Despite Denuvo?


Defaalt

If i'm not mistaken, there is no Denuvo at all on Mac games.


Next-Significance798

There is also almost no Mac games... so there's that... lol


ghostlypyres

Huh, that's interesting! I didn't know that


DawnComesAtNoon

No anticheat either (specifically Vanguard)


FemboysHotAsf

Apple & piracy really is not that bad.


OGAbell

i disagree, piracy on the fisher price computer is extremely easy.


whiffingPotato

Stop using apple products in general


DawnComesAtNoon

OP could use Asahi Linux on their mac


enzoloup

Pirating is easy on Mac, just the iPhones are more difficult


Leak1337

Macos lmao


ElectroMoe

Bruh OP tried posting this on the sims subreddit 🤣


baza101

He really did💀💀💀💀


Sil_vas

OP invented a new brand of stupid


Next-Significance798

Ain't no way 💀


Guilty_Meringue5317

No way😭


IFunkymonkey

Now i understand why the creater of this unlocker is pissed about so many questions -> because so many people on the internet are just stupid.


anadius1

Since there's so many comments and nobody pointed you in the right direction - you downloaded the wrong thing. You downloaded EA DLC Unlocker v2, which is clearly labelled, both on my website and on CS RIN forum, as "(**Windows & Linux**; Origin and EA app)". Scroll down and download EA DLC Unlocker for Mac, labelled "(Mac only; EA app only)". And if you didn't use my website/CS RIN forum - they are linked in the readme file.


anadius1

I swear, I think I'll make my website detect your OS based on user-agent and hide the Unlocker v2 if you're on Mac. :|


Designer-Yam-2430

Just put a big ass logo near each option


SoyNeh

You're overestimating your average Simmer


SomeOrdinarySanya

Won’t help when YouTubers are just reuploading it… like most likely whoever the fuck OP got this copy of Sims 4… probably came with a bunch of viruses too.


Odd_Antelope7572

People would save themselves a whole lot of headache if they remembered that they had learned (hopefully) to read in grade school. The ancestors are rolling over in their graves lol

shadesofwolves

Removed for rule 4. Please be nice and helpful to one another, and refrain from being disrespectful. Yeah, no. Not here, thanks.


Soccera1

Mate that's a .bat file


Hayato_the_idiot

.bat file on Mac just think a little about it.


mcslender97

Reminds me of that time I have to keep telling my dad that you can't run .exe files on your m1 MacBook Air


DawnComesAtNoon

💀


Why_Bacons0103

Cmon dude really...


cliquealex

Hello! You are currently running an Apple device using MacOS which is a completely different operating system than Windows, which is what these files you got were made for, hence why all the guides and tutorials look different than yours. There is no way to run these cracks on any Apple computer, and those that can be done are probably very difficult, my suggestion is to stop stressing yourself out and quit trying, or... pay. But nobody does that. Never get an Apple device for gaming!


Malaquias88

This is a joke right? …right?


G_ioVanna

probably a Out of season April fools joke


Ranch_Dressing321

Bro also posted it on the main Sims subreddit lmao


EquivalentTechnical7

Skill Issue


MeBadDev

There are some possible ways: 1. Use a VM 2. Use WINE 3. Install Linux/Asahi Linux


coti5

4. Throw your macbook into trash and get proper pc


SomeOrdinarySanya

Why do people shit on Macs so much? Yeah, sure, the Intel ones sucked ass in terms of value but what’s wrong with the current ARM ones? Apple laid down a great transition path from x86_64 to ARM, it was essentially as smooth as possible. The battery life is amazing because of the lower TDP chips and that also means no active cooling needed for the “lower end” models like the M1-M3. The screens are pretty great but luckily, other manufacturers finally started catching up to Apple. The only argument I have against Macbooks are their lack of reliability, you can’t service them extensively, the value for the M3 Macs is fucking ass, so I wouldn’t ever use a Macbook as my daily driver. But considering that many manufacturers also follow this trend, the only brand I could trust is probably only Framework. Not Asus, not Acer, not even Lenovo with their ThinkPad (still pissed about how shitty the ThinkPads since the T480 have been) and not any other brand that exists on the market. But that doesn’t make them shitty machines. They have a high price tag because you’re paying for “premium” build quality (which honestly should be fucking standard at this point, you shouldn’t have hinges breaking the casing on any laptop), the expensive parts like the high DPI, microLED display and obviously some of that sweet Apple tax. But those laptops that are rivaling with Macbooks don’t cost much less, so I really don’t get this whole argument.


SpudHeadLiam

Average Mac user


BlueBackground

look up if there's a Mac DLC unlocker (there will 100000% be one due to how many Sims players use Mac), the bat file uses windows directories and will only run on windows, you're opening it in a text editor so it isn't running but even if it did it wouldn't work.


Fusseldieb

The moment you saw "System32" and noticed you're on a Mac, a light should've lit up in your head lmao


Matrixla12

Where I can get that .bat ?


mrassface2023

Yeah


TheSwedishMrBlue

Is this MacOs or are you on Linux?


-Krotik-

check if there is setup.sh or something like this .bat files only work on Windows


Outrageous_Radio6541

man ur on macos


Pll-noob-1234

Small recommendation/friendly tip: Try using NMAC.to or nxmac.com as they have Mac cracks with download/torrent (no I’m not an ad this is a recommendation) (they have the sims 4 with all dlc)


RoleCode

'cause macOS lol. That thing would only work in Windows


Danub123

lmaooooo


femmd

oh sweetie…..god bless your heart


Jagskabara

Solution: Use Linux.


Odd_Antelope7572

You gotta check if an EA DLC Unlocker exists for Mac OSX operating systems. Batch files only work on Windows machines.


Gloomy_Warning_3846

you’re using a windows dlc file instead of mac .. try using a different file, v1 for mac. it’s on anadius’ website.


Academic_Bat5981

I have trouble downloading wineskin 😭😭😭


jpnzln

congratulations! this is the stupidest thing i've seen today


clitorisblungus

You tried pouring water on it?


LeBlancCoffee

Dude use wine/whisky


SckMyDuck

Sadly there is no mac os version of the ea dlc unlocker. Anadius also mentioned they aren’t going to make a mac version. But there is a wineskin version on Nmac with all the dlcs which works for me, so I recommend trying that.


batquee

listen to Anadius he’s right. but i did this too on my MacOS, had the same problem idk if i solved it all the way, but as long as u have the certain extensions downloaded u need to go to ur Disk and put them running through there and start sims offline and it should be good


batquee

i used this same thing and got some extensions that my mac was able to download on storage


Softandcoward

You are on a mac os .. go to windows . Easier pirate dogg


No-Recording5231

Could someone crack Ea Fc 24


Horror13666

OP, refer to this link for running this on Mac. Hmu if you need help, granted I haven’t done this since the EA App came into play. https://sims.tarac.nl/add-new-dlcs-to-your-legal-base-game-mac-version/


Healthy_Locksmith628

I was wondering if you could help, I don't really get it??


Horror13666

Message me! I can’t guarantee I’ll be the best of help with the release of the new EA app, as things aren’t migrated yet it appears, but once everything is up and running I’d be happy to walk you through it. Took me hours to figure it out on Mac, compared to my PC, it was a challenge and a half.


Specialist-Sort3811

What's wrong wic yu? Who hurt your brain?
