I realize its some time since you posted this wonderful advice but am hoping you could provide me with a little further advice.
I only ever got chance to play sims 2 a couple of times and by the time I had more time to start playing everything was sims 3 so I have bought everything sims 3 and then learned how to add use mods/CC after the last patch.
Suddenly I have decided I really want to try sims 2 and have purchased a complete disc set and codes knowing that I may encounter some issues along the way trying to play on a newer systems but I am willing to try and came across the graphics rule maker and thought it was a great idea as I read on many blogs that newer Nvidia cards can be a problem for sims 2 however as I have a reasonable PC set up I don't want to remove sims 3 as I still want to be able to play alongside sims 2 installed so am wondering when I start setting up and installing sims 2 if i download the graphics rule maker will that effect my graphics at all when playing sims 3?
I have also read that I will require to use an older version of Net. framework and while I understand I can download extra versions I am wondering if I have to somehow switch between the 2 versions when playing differing versions of the game?
I am on windows 7 64 bit service pack 2 Graphics card is a Nvidia Geforce GTX 770
Any additional advice on what I am feeling may turn out to be a rather long learning curve would be most welcomed....
Hello! I run The Sims 2 disk copy, with all Expansions and most Stuff Packs. I also have most of The Sims 3 on this computer. The Graphics Rule Maker (GRM) Only affects The Sims 2 as its a direct fix for the game itself and not your computer. As for the Net. Framework, I've never heard any express problems with it on Windows 7. I can't 100% guarantee the game will work, but Windows 7 is one of the easier ones to work with.
