Short notice (as in: not a real blog) I have upgraded my laptop to w10 this week, and now my game will only run fullscreen. Previously it would be dark on full screen mode and fine in windowed. I prefer windowed mode, so I am slightly (cough, very much) annoyed by w10 at this moment. Still, it functions full screen, so I think I'm going to try and see if it runs more stable as a whole now that my laptop is running on 10 rather then 7. I also tweaked the graphics settings some more, as well as naturally having to install the whole game fresh meaning I have a fresh sims folder (alas, with old saves....) I will consider this a test-run-continuation of the challenge!
