Re: Letter to have The Sims 2 Remastered

@HelkaliMaskani , at this time, EA has no plans to remaster Sims 2. There are hundreds of posts similar to yours both here and on the Official Sims Forums. 

The game is playable on Windows 10 and yes, it does take a bit of tweaking. If you have specific problems, post here and we can try to help you.

    A bit of tweaking? Unless you get a whole laundry list of mods and additional software - no the game is no longer playable on windows 10 as it develops sudden crashes and graphic memory issue because it no longer recognises the modern graphic cards. The game still has vibrant and active community who would be much more enthusiastic about the franchise if it didn't have to take a brisk stroll to mordor and back just to be able to get the game somewhat running.

    @Ninithel , have you used Graphics Rule Maker to get the game to recognize your graphics card? Google search for it since I cannot post links directly to it due to AHQ's forum rules. Also make sure you apply the 2GB patch which can be found on many Sims fan sites.

    I have applied the fixes and can play the game. The point is that we shouldn't have to do all that just to play and enjoy it..

    @Ninithel , you have to remember that this is an older game that has not been remastered or updated officially since October 2018. The fixes that allow you to play the game at all on modern computers are due to fans who have made these tools available.
