[MAC] My sims 3 screen resolution

@Shaaan14 Hi,

I have moved your question to The Sims 3 forums.

See whether you are able to change the screen resolution by editing the file directly, as described by crinrict here.

1. Close the game
2. Go to this file: Documents\electronicarts\thesims3\options(.ini)
3. Open the file with a text editor
4. Find the line for the screen resolutions and change it to what you want
5. save the file
6. Start the game.

Let me know how you get on.

Cheers,

Nils

How do I open it with text editor?

I did that and did 800 x 600 And it didn't even work.

Hi

Just to add to Nils's questions - when you reinstalled the game, did you first cleanly uninstall? Sometimes if you just use the 'uninstaller' tool, files can be left behind and sometimes these conflict with a new installation. You have to manually search for and delete the old files. See here for more info on this

Now I shall hand you back to Nils :D
