The Sims 4 free Downloads, 7 methods with full manuals (all multi-language)
There are various methods each with their own pros and cons. Do not pay for cracked updates, see why
| Method / Version | Link to Manual and download | Pro | Con | Further details |
| ZClient/ZLOrigin 1.66.139.1020 incl. Star Wars |
Zclient | New DLC’s almost immediately available. Automatic updating possible. Reliable site. You can add crack to play off-line |
You must play on line after execution of Zclient. Registration required | Cracked version of the genuine Origin Once you are logged in to Zclient and ZLorigin many other games are also available for downloads. You can download, update and repair your Sims games |
| Sims 4 all-in-one (portable) 1.66.139.1020 incl. Star Wars |
All-in-one | Available as direct and as torrent download. Download and play with all DLC’s in one single download. Future expansions can be added easily via the Anadius Updater. No need to download the full all-in-one again. | Very large download, almost 50 GB | Good download for NEW PLAYERS of the game as it contains all packs. Extremely simple. Multi language. Included: Language changer, dlc toggler, language strings. Suitable for both 32 and 64 bits windows. No need to download the all-in-one again when you downloaded an earlier version before. Use the updater to actualize your game. |
| Sims 4 all-in-one alternative Version 1.65.77.1020 |
Alternative | Most of the times faster than torrents and or direct downloads | Installs all DLC’s in the quickest possible manner Smaller download than the usual all-in-one |
|
| Sims 4 all-in-one (portable) in parts for downloading on FAT32 formatted devices. 1.65.70.1020 |
All-in-one-parts | All DLC’s from base game upto and incl. Nifty Knitting. Download in 4 GB parts | When your device is NTFS formatted you better use the above method | Many (older) computers, USB sticks, external drives and flashcards are FAT32 formatted. You cannot store files larger than 4 GB on such devices.
This method enables you to download and play the Sims 4 on FAT32-machines. (Provided of course that the other components on your computer are compatible with The Sims 4) |
| Anadius Updater 1.66.139.1020 incl. Star Wars. |
Updater | In my opinion the very best system to download, install, update, repair your Sims 4. All DLC’s are selectable. Very reliable and extremely simple. |
Can’t think of any | Very easy to handle, just a few mouse-clicks required. It’s not a torrent nor a direct download. Everything will be handled for you on-line. Your game will be updated from whatever version you have to the latest version. Can also be used on FAT32 formatted drives. |
| Anadius Repack 1.66.139.1020 incl. Star Wars |
Repack | Add DLC’s in any order, update your game to the latest version. Simple and reliable. Smallest possible downloads Also very good for an all-in-one |
I prefer the Updater when you have already some DLC’s installed | Very easy to handle, you just tick what you want and the setup does it all for you. Usually many seeders. A full all-in-one took me 20 minutes to download via torrents. |
| Classical method 1.66.139.1020 incl. Star Wars |
Classical | Available as torrent as well as direct downloads. Add DLC’s (selectable) to your existing game |
In fact outdated | When you like to install in the old fashioned way, you can download and select packs. |
| Most recent DLC/Updates 1.66.139.1020 Star Wars |
Recent | Contains only the most recent DLC and updates. | Your game must be up-to-date incl. Eco Lifestyle | Easy download for Star Wars Available as torrent as well as a direct download |

@Tarac your the best THX
Just wanted to say Thank You again! Everything here works perfectly and is so simple to use. Simply AMAZING!
once sims 4 journey to batuu comes out will you update?
Because i know everyone hates it well i actually hate it beacuse ea is ignoring us but i have been a fan star wars since so please please update
Yes, of course. The official release is expected at 8th of September approx 19.00 hrs my timezone.
Grant me at least 1 day to compose the update and the DLC, so most likely it will be available on this site sometime on Wednesday.
The pre-star-wars update 1.66.139.1020 is already available via Anadius Updater and via Most Recent Updates
I just had to comment.
I’ve looked into pirating all the sims stuff for years but never found a good method/one that worked. After the recent announcement of the star wars game pack I knew it was time (whether you like it or not, it is just a money making scheme).
This was so incredibly easy. I downloaded it in parts and it worked. I was in actual shock when it started up.
It crashed the first time I played but it was because of a firewall pop up and I played for hours afterwards and everything seems to be in order. You don’t even need origin for this (other websites for downloading the sims require making changes to origin and the base game yada yada) which is super convenient considering I have to reinstall origin every fucking time something updates so trying to get it to accept pirated games is a flaming bag of dog shit.
I never planned on buying all the packs. They are NOT worth it. But I really enjoy the variety that sims youtubers have with every single pack. This is a god send. Almost brought me to tears
Hi, First I want to thank you for this website.
I’ve updated my game because I didn’t have the Eco Lifestyle pack yet. But after playing for a while, I don’t really like this pack at all. Is there are way to uninstall only Eco Lifestyle? Or do I have to uninstall everything and re-install the whole thing again?
@ Sherry
You can disable Eco Lifestyle with the dlc-toggler
Thank you. Where can I find the toggler? I followed the link you gave in someone else’s comment
https://tonyhimself.stackstorage.com/s/jh2GwtmrF2TZhcH
but it doesn’t open. It says the file is damaged.

Did you extract the downloaded dlc-toggler.rar with winrar ?
Yes, I did use Winrar. I wanted to post here a screenshot of what it says, but I deleted the file off my pc, and tried to re-download. But now the whole download doesn’t even start =(
Could you extract the Winrar files dlc-toggler without errors ? – If not download it again from HERE
After extraction place the 2 files in the main directory of The Sims 4 (where you van allo find folders like __Install, Delta, Data etc.)
The download works now, but this is what I get to see when I extract.
https://i.imgur.com/MX9pSeM.png
Download the Anadius Updater (very small download), extract with Winrar and copy the files dlc and dlc-toggler to the main directory of your The Sims 4 game
This download doesn’t start either

I extracted the dlc toggler and uploaded the 2 files separately.
dlc.ini you can download HERE
dlc-toggler download HERE
YES! Thank you sooo much! It finally worked and I managed to turn off Eco Lifestyle! Lol I was almost ready to give up and just reinstall the whole thing. TYSM!!

can i play sims 4 on 32bit pc
@Maria,
Yes you can except these expansions:
Discover University
Eco Lifestyle
Tiny Living
Nifty Knitting
Can i put this in a How To Download Video? Because there are no videos about downloading the new version for free.
@RicksZside
Be my guest.
When you finished the video, can you sent me a link to tarac@tarac.nl ?
Problem with most videos is that they only show how to install and hardly ever where to download from.
install keeps getting stuck at island living
component 29.7%
total 86.4%
ive done everything to troubleshoot. please help.
@Salena
Which method are you using ?
Maybe you’d better work with the Anadius Updater.
Hi !So I’ve downloaded and installed the game, everything was fine, but when i launch the game, there is nothing in CAS, i can’t see my sim, I can’t play and i don’t know why, I did everything I had to do, just like in the tutorial. Please, help me.
I don’t know if it can be helpful, but I’ve downloaded the game by using the Anadius repack link and chose the torrent.
@Jeskamina
Use the Anadius Updater – let it Update (this also repairs your game)
The problem can also be caused by outdated mods, play without mods and see if it helps.
nifty knitting available yet?
@Dorito
Yes
Oh my God! i tried the anadius updater and it worked like magic! my game version is now at 1.65.70 like it promised. Anadius you are a simmer God!
Nifty Knitting not installed
@Dimitris
You’re correct, Nifty Knitting not (yet) installed.
We can’t perform miracles as Electronic Arts themselves have not even published it as yet.
Hello, as I have read and checked the comments. Can I install mods on the Cracked Version? (I have Origin with mods) and I was wondering if it will allow me. Thanks!
It sucks how I cannot have origin with the cracked DLCs!
With that in mind, does the Gallery also work with the cracked DLCs?
Thanks again!
@ Luigi Alvarez
Yes you can still use your mods in cracked games.
Leave your Origin-based game where it is (probably in C;|Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 4
Install your cracked game in a different directory.
As both versions use the same folder C;\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to store your progression in the game it is recommended to use the Origin game for access to the Gallery only and to play with the cracked game.
Do not save a session played in the Original version.
See https://sims.tarac.nl/sims-4-original-pirated/
Understandable and when you mean to not save a session played in the Original version, you mean in the Origin, so basically I have to play the cracked game and use that for save and load and not the one on the Origin,
if that is correct.
Without further ado, I think i understand the link you have sent, I will surely comment furthermore if there is questions I am confused off, thanks!
I don’t know which downloads will be suitable for the link to use, as some of them do not work unfortunately, do you know one to which I can use to download the cracked DLC’s with the acceptance of the Origin game? I hope you understand, thanks for the help!
@Luigi Alvarez.
In your situation copy your present genuine (Origin) folder of the Sims 4 to another location on your PC .
Then use the Anadius Updater and browse it to this new location. You can then add missing DLC’s.
yes
Hey! I have the original game and 4 dlcs with Origin. I want to install the other dlc for free. Witch method should I use so I can have the original game with the cracked dlc?
I would also like to download the sims 3, will origin detect that I have the cracked game? I’ve heard that they can ban your account and I don’t want that to happen
No, Origin will not detect a cracked The Sims 3 game
Keep the origin game separated from the cracked version.
Usually the origin version is stored in C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 4.
Install your cracked games in f.e. C:\The Sims 4
Thank you!! I really appreciate your work 🙂
