So EA, now I'm really mad, because not only have you not helped with my simcity issue or responded to this like you said you would, but whatever you made me do yesterday has now messed up my sims 3 game also, good job!! Are you actually going to deal with this??
Are you running the Windows 10 Creator update version? This may work if you are running the newest Windows 10 version (and if you recently updated, probably the reason that you didn't have the problem before):
Go to SimCity.exe (default location is \Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\SimCity\SimCity for 64 bit), right-click SimCity.exe > Properties > Compatibility tab. Check the box that says "Override high DPI scaling method". That opens up a dropdown right below it - change to "System" instead of "Application". That should scale the game text properly.
If it works, you can do the same with the exe files for Origin and your sims 3.
Thank you for your response and help on both of these! I have an AMD Radeon graphics card and Windows 10 home I believe, used their website to find the answer; downloaded something from there. Even though my laptop is 1920x1080 I am now running both sims 3 and simcity in resolutions lower than that and yet they are still fullscreen; no black round the edges and the toolbar etc are not zoomed out like they were before. It's really strange as before I reinstalled them they were both on 1920x1080. Don't know how they're fixed but they are!
Thanks again for the response!
