Get Sims 2 Ultimate Collection (all DLC) for free

Thanks for the reply, I've done that and I still can't select either of those options so no idea. Also when I'm creating a Sim the box for changing facial features is in the way of my Sim's face so I can't even see what I'm changing. This happens even when the view is zoomed out as far as it can go. :confused:

towards the end someone is linking premade config files for different gfx cards but you might need to go back 5 pages or so to find them

Post yours here and we can all have a lookie

Here's mine:

It only says I have 32MB of VRAM so obviously I've not done something properly here.

They need to be in
\Origin Games\Fun with Pets\SP9\TSData\Res\Config\
\Origin Games\Fun with Pets\SP9\TSData\Res\CsConfig\[/B]

I've copied my Video Cards.sgr into both of those folders as only one had the changes in it, I'll just boot the game up now and see if anything has changed. Thanks for the help so far guys. :)

EDIT: Arknor, I've downloaded the premade config files for my graphics card and now I can change the edge smoothing and all the other graphical options so thanks for that! All I need to do now is go back into the config files and change the resolution as it seems to be limited to 1600 by something or other. Thanks for the help both. :)

Redeemed the code, downloaded it, couldn't get the game to launch. Got in touch with EA who solved it and gave me a 15% discount code!

Ta very muchly!

You need to set the number so search for seti texture and change it to this

seti textureMemory 1744

in

C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Fun with Pets\SP9\TSData\Res\Config\GraphicRules.sgr

Sorry I am a tad drunk tonight, 2 weeks of work coming up and Holiday timeeee. But if you set that it will remove that 32 part and you should have axxs to the other options.

I would not have downloaded any files as you have no need to.

It's sorted now! I could have fixed it following your instructions in this post but went the lazy option and download the config files that already had the modern graphics cards added to it. Thanks for the help! Not sure if you can help with another issue I'm having though. When I create a Sim the sliders and such are in the way of the actual Sim so I can't see what effects my changes are having. I've zoomed out but it doesn't actually zoom far enough and the boxes are still in the way of my Sim.

I've downloaded and applied the camera fixes for higher resolutions and the problem persists.
 
Yep, SoulWings just above. The critique levied at Origin makes zero sense sometimes, I know it's general EA hate but the platform on its own, is serviceable and actually better than Steam imo. For one the UI isn't a chore to navigate.

I don't really have anything against Origin, but I just don't want to have to run multiple platforms on my machine, and overall Steam is better just because of the sheer number of games available on it (I agree that whether the platform itself is any better is debatable).
 
I forgot how boring the sims was...

barely any different types of furniture etc even though the ultimate edition contains supposedly like 10 expansion packs or something ridiculous like that too...
 
Followed all the steps to the letter but can't get it to run in 1920x1080!

My log shows the following:

=== Graphics device info ===
Number: 0

Tried to get the chip type but mine does not show a hex code, just the name of the card.

EDIT: Looks like the CHIP ID was in the above log (1184) so added that to the 'Videos Card' file but still the same :(

I have the ability to change all settings to High (Shadows is greyed out), it's just the res I can't change!

Can you double check 100% you changed the settings to this:

seti Low 3
seti Medium 3
seti High 3

That part is key, they already exist so make sure you did not just add it and actually changed the values.

Also I think texture memory has to be 1744 even if your card has 4gb. Apart from that no idea sorry.
 
Yea, they're all set correctly...

I have attached mine below, back yours up and replace the entire thing with this. Apart from doing that I have no idea m8 sorry, I know mine works doing this:
