Sims 3 Origin Version using Lutris
Hades Aug 23, 2020
Hi there,

I am new to Linux and I tried to install Sims 3 on Origins using Lutris. The Installation worked without an error and Origin seems to work too (well as good as Origin can....). But when I try to start there is just an error that EA Servers are unavailable to activate the game. I've tried to start the game with Origin in offline-mode and renaming the games .exe to the launcher. Both didn't work.

Does anyone know how to fix this?
