What in game graphics do you play on?

what in game graphics do you play on? could you also post pics of what the graphics look like?
  • It's a mix Ultra. Most of it, I put in the highest option except for reflection and vfx cuz it doesn't really make much of a difference graphic wise but I don't want to stress my card, just in case (even tho I doubt it will, haha. I'm just weird.)
  • ULTRAAAA. Gotta get those awesome lighting effects they added which I love.

    So much for people who say this game is played on a potato - Simmers are running high end for the most part. Listen up Maxis - we don't need no plum design - we simmers for the most part are upgraded!


    I doubt this forum is representative of Simmers in general tbh.

    Oh, and I play on ultra on a non-gaming laptop and the game runs perfectly fine.


    Well most of the people I know never even come to these forums - and I actually don't know anyone - personally, who does not run a high end gaming rig because I am affiliated with lan competition gamers for over 25 years - who also play sims. I already knew they used high end machines - but it seemed to be here was where players didn't a few years ago anyway - especially when I was helping a lot of simmers fixing their Sims 3 games to play on lesser laptops and such. But seems the simmers here are also running some decent equipment too now.

    I use Ultra. My previous gaming PC blew up while playing the Sims 4 (unrelated to the game really, it was an old computer) so when I rebuilt it I built it with extra high Sims settings + longevity for future packs in mind.


    wow that is crazy! It blew up!

    No they did not list Ultra - Ultra is the highest setting and my computer automatically goes to Ultra in this game. It is better than high. You get all lighting affects - mirrored affects on the top level.


    that's what I thought. I play on ultra aswell.


    I forgot about Ultra.I never mess with the graphics but I am going to try so i was curios what everyone did.

    OP I use Ultra - which you don't have listed in this poll.


    I forgot that was an option


    That's okay - I wrote it in.


    Thank You!

    Ultra settings, since it's not listed here. Everything looks very gorgeous on Ultra settings as well from setting leaves fall to the light coming through the windows in homes as well as how the lights look at night.

    Ultra but no uncompressed sim textures. Causes lag (really good card and more memory than sims will ever need but oh well) and it makes such a tiny difference anyway. It couldn’t go back to the low/medium settings I used to have back a few months ago. I’m spoiled now.


    what does the uncompressed texture do? I am new to messing with the graphics.
