Simcity ошибка 3000

I’ll give the benefit of the doubt to the people meant to help us and say they are completely in the dark and not clueless/useless. After struggling with this issue multiple times, I messed around and managed to get to the launcher; so at least that’s something. I suspect the main issue had to do with the SimCity uninstaller never booting from the windows Programs and Features area in the control panel. Registry edits never fully did it either. So…

My steps:

1.Uninstall Origin. You can leave behind other games, just make sure Sim City is deleted.

2. Download CCleaner. Seriously. When you do, go to the tools section and find the program uninstaller tool. Find the SimCity entry and uninstall it. Through CCleaner, it ran the uninstall perfectly, not like the crap where Origin just directs you to the Windows tool instead of doing it itself.

3.  *I can’t be responsible if you take this step and something goes wrong; just know it worked for me. Don’t try this step if you don’t have common sense on what may be critical in you registry.*

Not satisfied, I searched my registry for every mention of «SimCity» and «Origin» deleted the ones that didn’t seem critical If in doubt just leave it. Search for the registry solutions on the forums; it gives you the exact directories you should be checking. Unfortunately, I’ve been unable to locate those «solutions» again. Also be careful you don’t delete any previous Sim City games’ registry entries. I have Sim City 4 still installed so I had to be careful. The entries make it easy to tell the difference.

4. I deleted all temporary files, also through CCleaner. I also browsed to my temporary files and deleted what the system allowed me to for good measure. I run a swap drive for an SSD and CCleaner missed these.

5. Reinstall origin.

6. Download SimCity.

7. Pray when you click that Play button.

I really hope this helps the few of us affected by this problem. Support seems to be overwhelmed or just plain useless (I’m looking at your, Origin chat support.)

I have a copy of SimCity 2013. It’s a great game, and I’m enjoying it very much.

Unfortunately, most of the time when I go to start it up, I get an «ERROR 3000» window and the game crashes.

I have stumbled on a way to get the game to run.

In WINDOWS XP, you need to go to your START menu, and choose RUN. Then type in «regedit»

Navigate through to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Maxis/SimCity

The «DisplayName» field had data set as «SimCity?»

Right-click on the DisplayName field and hit modify, and then remove the ? in the data field. Exit the editor and start the game again. Now it should start up fine.

The next time you go to start the game, the error will likely appear. Simply go back into regedit, and if you haven’t used it for anything, it will open back up where you left it last time. Put the question mark back into the DisplayName field and exit again. The game should start again.

Just continue modifying the DisplayName field each time this error comes up, and it should continue getting you into the game.

Why does this work? I have NO IDEA! I just know that it has worked for me every time I try to start the game and get the ERROR 3000.

Good luck!
