@Simburian Although some people have issues with it, IMO Graphics Rules Maker https://www.simsnetwork.com/tools/graphics-rules-maker is still the easiest and best way to add your graphics card to the database and allow you to use higher resolutions and advanced graphics. As for the black shadow squares, there is a mod on MTS to fix them.

I've checked that out and still cannot find that it applies to the new Origin update of Sims Ultimate. Did they mod it with that?

It works on the newer version of the UC where they moved everything about for me, and they've just released an update for it too. Try it and see.

I downloaded it for the first time when it was on Origin for free a few years ago. Until then, I had never played it. I started with TS3.

I have the disks and I have the Ultimate Collection and the Super Collection (for the Mac). I also have Life Stories and Castaway. You could say I am swimming in Sims 2. :) I don't play any of them these days though. Maybe one day I will get around to seeking out all the mods and cc that I long ago lost, but not today.

I still have my old disc and I use some mods to avoid hood corruption and replace skin colors, eyes and hair (from peppermint & ginger). I play a megahood with all the premades.

I say yes because I have all my old disks, but I missed the Origin give out and wish I could have it there so it was easier to install and play.

I still go back to it every once in awhile for Asylum challenges because Sims in 2 haven’t learned that the toilet can be sat on when looking for a seat to eat a meal unlike their Sims 4 cousins. :D

I play Ultimate Collection every once in a while for fun, it's something different than 4.

The graphics rules maker file never worked for me. I googled what I needed to change and changed it myself, then saved a copy of the new file to my desktop.

Yes and no but I'd like to. If I'm using my laptop I can play Sims 2. It's kind of ancient so I can use disks to play Sims 2 on it. I wish I could play it on PC though but cannot because when I try I have issues with Windows 10.

I use the discs and for some reason the sims 2 store edition is on my origin. maybe possibly could get UC because of that. But atlas, at least i use the discs and play from time to time.
