Default Uninstalling and installing expansion packs in Super Collection
Hello!
I've just recently installed The Sims 2 Super Collection on my iMac, and I'd like to play it without expansion/stuff packs that are included, first. How do I do that without uninstalling the game itself? And what about installing the expansion packs back when I'm ready to play them? Thank You so much.

I don't think there is an option to disable or uninstall packs in The Sims 2 Super Collection.

yes, as @mate24 said, it's "all or nothing" kind of deal.

Yeah, the only way I know to do this is with the Any Game Starter, but I'm not sure if that works for macs, or for the Super Collection, as that's a bit newer.

AnyGameStarter is Windows only, as it relies on modifying the Windows registry to hide or show which EPs and SPs are “installed”.

As others have said, Sims 2 Super Collection doesn’t have the ability to be selective. You can certainly hide stealth hoods that came with specific EPs, but you’ll get the game engine for the combination of EPs it includes. There’s no ability to switch off seasons or pets, or anything like that.
