I am planning to buy a new laptop.
I am used to play the normal version of the sims 4 and have no intend to switch to the legacy edition.
I came across the Samsung Galaxy Book S and it fits all the system requirements other than that they use a different graphic card.
I want to play with reshades and mods, and I am wondering if this laptop can support that.
Thank you!!!
Since it uses an ARM processor you can forget about running anything not developed for that processor. That means all major games and a lot of 64bit applications. On the plus side it is supported by Minecraft.
Does this mean no?
Is The Sims 4 developed for ARM processor = no.
No but thanks for pointing out that the new version has the Intel Core i5-L16G7 which is a processor aimed at low intensity workload. Intel developed this to compete with ARM processors. If it can run the Sims 4 it would only be the Legacy edition and it would do so poorly. For light school work, email and browsing the web it should work well. It may even be possible to run some minor games that are not too taxing.
The Legacy edition can not run any packs released after November 2019. If the normal game ran well enough I recommend changing back to that. Rightclick the game in Origin and select Game properties. On the advanced tab change from Legacy to 64 bit.
@GabbyysumI saw this question a few months back after I got my galaxy S book, at first I could only play legacy which I found pretty watered down and ended Uninstalling. I was doing some bot coding for a friend and installed python for the coding of a completely different game. And left python on my the laptop tablet and I was planing a move, and wanted a game for the journey since my switch lite has a poor battery life so I reinstalled the sims 4 via the usual origin and just let it do its thing until the base game was downloaded and went to play to if I could since I was using my s book as a office computer and had more free resources vs a few games taking up space on the laptop. It ran okay, and still runs well enough to bring entertainment and I have a few mods installed I haven't bought any packs on the pc version of the game. I not exactly sure what makes it work now, either me unistalling other apps and games or simply possible having python installed with its recommended add-ons. Like mentioned before it's not great if you compare it to say acer, or usual gaming pc but it does it job enough, currently haven't ran into any issues, I keep my sim count low and only have about 9-10 mods mostly just custom content clothes and the like and the command station for cheats respectfully. Not sure if you still have the a book or upgraded to a more suitable pc but I wanted to share my experience. I'm currently running version 1.89.214.1030 of the game, I added images of my mod list and my ability to now see the non legacy features, then the final is within the origin client showing I don't have legacy edition installed. The only difference between the first attempt at installing is the fact I deleted alot of my older games and installed python from knowledge and I believe it was a earlier version of the game so either the requirements lowered enough to allow Arm-processor to utilize the program or something somehow was able to by oas the restriction of the arm processor
