hey i had the same problem i just fixed it by going into my ea app>sims4>manage>view properties and putting -dx9 into advanced launch options and save. close your ea app and relaunch.

Hi there, I've been going through forums and trying every solution I can find to launch my game. I have an EA account linked to Steam and cannot find anywhere on EA where it allows me to try this option- when going into manager for EA with sims it only gives my add-on options for dlcs. If i go in through steam, it doesn't give me an option like this that I could find to change to -dx9. Any suggestions? 

Also  on the next suggestion would like to add that i have a gaming laptop and when I go into the multiple windows option for me there is no way to turn it off, my computer just recognizes if there is a screen attached. 

I really appreciate your input, I've been working on the for days now and am just loosing hope on the situation
