Hey all,

We're locking this thread and starting up a new one here as we've released a patch that impacts how DirectX 11 and The Sims 4 function together.

Please use the thread linked above going forward.

Thanks!

When I run version 1.107.112.1030 DX11, text in the game cuts off part way in world descriptions, gallery descriptions and pack descriptions. There are also smudged shapes in the text sometimes. It may do this in other places that I haven't seen yet. The text seems to be there as I can highlight it in the world description, it is just partially invisible. This issue does not happen when I run version 1.107.112.1030 DX9. I don't believe it is mod related because I got the game to load a fresh The Sims 4 folder by taking the old one out and started the game with no mods but with DX 11, and the text problem was still happening.

I'm happy to keep playing using DX9 since DX11 but I thought I should post about this to draw attention to the issue.
