Did the graphics get an update?

I'm not sure about an update for the game as a whole, but definitely they've gotten better at textures with this pack and the last few packs. If you compare clothing in CAS (for example) and pick a shirt that came with EL and a base game one, there is a clear difference in quality. Maybe that's what people are talking about?

Well they are basically saying if you have performance issues it could be because theyp upgraded the graphics altogether.

I'm pretty sure EA would tell us, right?

Oh! I haven't heard that, but yeah, I would assume that if they were doing something that big, it would have been in the patch notes.

Now that I'm thinking on it, when they dropped support for the older Mac systems and 32 bit, I think they did actually up the base game specs. That was last summer though? Nothing recent like with the new pack.

I know they changed the look of the cooking & rewards store menus; items are more clearly separated & it somehow looks "cleaner."

I disagree my game runs fine,the graphics are impeccable, but my sim keeps Stopping to do push ups, mold clay, play with a random cube, and so many other interactions that are autonomous

But overall, the graphics are Definitely Improved,I notice every detail on my sim now, and their outfits and hair, they look so amazing.

I actually noticed some texture changes while playing lately. But I can’t tell if it’s because they updated the graphics or if that’s just how it really looks. I’ve been playing with a lighting mod from the start but when the latest patch broke it, I just gave it up altogether.

@Tony89 They did upgrade the graphics in like 2017 or something but they also told us. If they had done it this time I am sure they would say something. There cannot be better graphics but same performance. If they do upgrade them, there will be a difference in perfomance, that is just how it works.

I have not noticed anything except some UI changes and that the sunlight looks a bit different.
