+Certain content may only work with specific expansion or stuff packs, and may only work with certain patch versions.  This is especially important with hacks/mods (things that modify game behavior - for example, allowing kleptomaniac sims to steal stuff whenever instead of only after 7 PM) as the game's code may have changed.
