Here I am again. Evidently Windows no longer allows you to 'reset to factory settings.' The new reset wipes your computer but leaves the Windows version intact with updates. I hate Windows. So the whole reset thing I did was useless. I've considered trying to find a computer for sale with Windows 7 or 8 and leave it off the internet but can't find anything like that. I've tried some of your suggestions but I have some questions. Here is the thing, if I were just playing I would be annoyed, but my main thing that I like to do is machinima and I don't want to film with the game looking like this. The pixilation seems worse since I reset my computer. Everything is very pixelated and weird looking.
@coco Questions! First, my 3D settings in Nvidia, they are all set to default except for Vsync on. Is there something in there I might tweak to help this issue? I don't know what all those settings mean. Yes, I have cleared caches, didn't help. That mod is awesome! Thank you! I've been taking all my sims into CAS and getting rid of the shiny clothes! It did get rid of the shiny wood on the television but it's still there on the floor and walls. That house is the Goth mansion redo by a member of the DNA team. It really is gorgeous. I'll be interested to know if your testing shows the same thing I'm experiencing.
@puzzlezaddict Did you see anything in the dxdiag that would help?
@ScottDemon I don't think it's the computer cables because everything was working fine before that update.
Yes, I'm still trying. I was just frustrated the other day. I am worried that because this is a Windows thing and they probably don't consider Sims 3 to be relevant that we've finally hit something that will go unsolved. I love Sims 3 because of the graphics and this update has ruined them. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Thanks
