Please improve the quality of the Sims Thumbnail in the main menu.

I loved the new main menu in The Sims 4, but I found the thumbnail quality used to show the Sims to be very poor. It gets blurry, and gives a sense of low quality. It's a small detail, but it would be nice if it could be improved.

  • I can't say that's anywhere on my list of desires that they improve/fix ?

    They really should fix that.
    It doesn't reflect well on the game that it's one of the first things you see when you load up the game, especially for a new customer.
  • Here's how to fix the resolution. Go to C: > program files > origin games > the sims 4 > game > bin > res right click on thumbnailconfig.ini scroll to the section then where it says size_small and change the numbers from 64,64 to 256, 256. The sim should not look blurry anymore.

    Thanks.
    Much nicer to look at.

    Thanks so much for this :) it was one of the biggest annoyances for me believe it or not lol.

    It's your graphics settings. My sim looks very clear.

    I don't believe it's graphics settings, I'm playing at ultra graphics on a 2k resolution and it was still blurry.

    Thank you, looks much better. This should have been the default settings in my opinion.
