Does DLC require the latest game-version?

Recommended Posts

Hi - now that the TW store is online again, I am about to download TW's F-4N-DLC. But I am having second thoughts: I have SF2V and NA both on July 2012 and (seeing the trouble the latter updates brought) am more than happy with that. Will downloading and installing a DLC require the latest game-version - or (even worse) update the games "itself"?

The DLC will update your sims to the latest patch level, which I have been perfectly happy with.  Be aware that your mods will be affected just like running a patch, so you will need to re-name your Mod Folder to zMods to prevent those files being altered.  Do a search for the method for installing the DLC without having it update your current patch level.  It is easily done, just I have not tried it myself.  In a recent thread it was covered at length.

I seem to remember a thread about using  a second install to accomplish this . One game  at the current patch level and one at say July 2012, using the current patch level to install the DLC... and then porting it over to the July 2012 patch level game.
