Sims look weird
See attachments. My computer has switchable graphics, it can switch between the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 for power saving and the AMD Radeon HD 6470M for high performance.
I exactly know what the problem is! I had the same problem, the thing is that with the last catalyst update, videocards like yours and the 2xxx 3xxx series are getting this in all games (only windows 7 and vista for some reason). In order to fix it, you must download this version of it (remove the videocard drivers 1st). Link : http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?p=4330698 I hope this helps you mate.
It solved the problem for me, and hundred more ppl, so why not for you?

The AMD Radeon HD 6470M is not on the supported cards list. I also tried installing the hotfix before, but that resulted in Catalyst Control Center not recongizing any cards. I could still play 3D games though, but it didnt fix the The Sims 3 problem.
Have you tried searching their site if there are any other hotfixes for your card ?
And thanks.

Assuming you meant AMDs site, yes. I found two hotfixes, none of them fixedd the problem.
