13 years agoshader model 2.0
Basically my PC refuses to play my installed version of The Sims three due to my graphics card not being 'good enough'. I've been looking around and heard that having directx 9.0 runs shader model 2....
You can change that in the options.ini (fullscreen = 1) or in the options ingame (graphic tab)
What graphic card do you have ?
I believe it is a 'sis 661FX/GX Mirage' I think. I may be looking at the wrong thing. I would like to say that I have heard about the fullscreen=1 thing but have never been able to find the options.ini file. I've heard it's meant to be on the first page and I do have a load of files displayed but none with such a title...
And I can't even run the game so any ingame options will just not work... Which I'm just guessing is what you meant by the second option.
The file might just be called options if you don't display known endings.
It's in documents\electronicarts\thesims3
I believe I have tried that too. It may be worth mentioning that the game is originally Russion (or Latvian, but I think I was right the first time), that may have a difference on what files are saved where...
But you do have a documens\electronicarts\thesims 3 folder ?
