Jagged lines in Sims 4
Hi all, Hopefully someone is able to help me with some issues regarding jagged lines in Sims 4. PC Specs: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700K CPU @ 3.80Ghz 15.92 GB RAM 2560 x ...
Hi, me again…
so..I’ve been noticing these shiny objects flickering on walls or other objects while I play sims 4?
I don’t have FXAA on because it makes it worse and I’ve tried it on and didn’t quite help. I even had my Gamma Correction ON and nothing seems to work?
I’ve tweaked my NVIDIA settings as much as I could and even fixed lose cables (if there were) but I still see it these flickering shiny objects…
Any advice?
@littlemissday What settings did you change, and did you make sure to choose the option to override the application setting wherever possible? (You can post a screenshot or two if you don't want to write everything out.) Does it still happen in both windowed and fullscreen modes?
It's also worth trying to run your monitor at 120 Hz, or 100, if that's your first option below 144. Right-click on the desktop and select Display Settings > Advanced Display Settings, then choose the refresh rate and restart your computer.
Thanks for replying 🙏🏼
The settings you told me before, I kept them all and yes I still have it override application. I have my antialiasing transparency on to 8x super sample coz it helped get rid of some of the jaggies I was getting before. Only thing I added were DSR smoothness to 30%, low latency mode to ultra and DSR factors.
I only see these shiny flicker on the walls of my sims house whenever I try to move the screen, idk why? and changing the NVIDIA settings doesn’t really help much…I’m wondering if it’s got to do with the Mods I have? Because I have custom content installed as well but idk how I can see from the folders which ones are corrupt. I did DISM command and even the sfc /scannow and everything was okay…:/
Also, when my game lags/stutters they get worse? But I don’t know how to fix the lagging issues..I have my max frame rate to 144 Hz and in game I play full screen mode and I have it on for 144 Hz as well and vsync on (as well as in NVIDIA settings) I tried to remove vsync in game in sims settings but that didn’t help really? So I turn them on both…but I could be completely wrong idk…
@littlemissday It's worth testing without your custom content at least once, just to see whether it makes any difference. Just move the Mods folder to the desktop, don't save your progress when you load the save, and put Mods back when you're done.
And I'd still be interested to know whether running your monitor at a lower resolution helps, as I described before. Vertical sync uses the monitor's refresh rate, so you could just leave it enabled in the Control Panel without changing any other settings.
