game keeps minimizing itself need help!
I know this isn't where this post goes I already made a post in technical this morning an no one ever replied an I've waited all day an I really need help!!!! This is what I posted in my other thread:...
Forum Discussion
I've been having this issue and killing myself trying to fix it!
I FINALLY FIXED IT!
I noticed that the full screen resolution that it was setting my game to was way off. When I changed the resolution in the game it stopped minimizing itself. Here is how to fix it and keep it fixed!
Right click on your desktop-> Screen Resolution -> write down recommended (mine is 1920x1200)
Then go to My Documents/Electronic Arts/ The Sims 3
Open the Options.ini file
search for Resolution
(it should have 3 numbers after it separated by spaces)
change the first number to the first number of your recommended resolution
and the second number to the second recommended resolution and leave the third number alone
EX: resolution = 1920 1200 60 (that's mine)
Save it, restart the sims
Hopefully you will be playing in no time!
