Sims 3 64 Bit Mac - UI/Resolution too small
Hello, I have played Sims 3 on my Mac with no problems up until now (I play on the 64 bit metal version via origin) I launched it today and the UI size is far too small- as shown in the attachments....

@puzzlezaddictNo. The problem was that there were only two of the proposed screen resolutions (about 2k). Now the drop-down list in the game is the same as in the second screenshot. It's just that after the fix, there was no resolution of 1440x900 that was most convenient for me. So I added it manually using the appropriate function in the program.
Without this method, there was no way to choose something below 2K resolution in the game. Consequently, the interface was small.
P.S. after that, Better Display will no longer be needed, everything works without it. The missing screen resolution options will appear in the game, and in the OS you can choose either in the appropriate settings or using RDM (which is more convenient)
OMG I AM SO LATE BUT I LOVE YOU! This fixed the game for me i’m in shock, i stupidly thought the game only ran in scaled (since i didn’t know you could change it) and had the wrong dimensions which gave me an ugly black border. now my game is PERFECT. The dimensions are perfect with Better Display!! confirmation. this method WORKS. use it. i also changed it to 1440 x 900 for the record
Can you please walk us through how it worked for you? I downloaded better display and the font is still tiny for sims 3. Please help I’m struggling here.
@TheTruth91 Did you read the posts immediately above yours? Please start with post 47. Or if you'd prefer not to use a mod, read through the instructions earlier in the thread. Everything has already been discussed here.
Yes I read the posts before you and tried those methods and it did not help so that’s why I’m asking you what are the alternatives I can do for this to work? Smh
