Yes, i tried different combinations along with the DSR, with both dx9 and dx11, but no luck. I considered downgrading my nvidia driver, but i'm hesitant. Before and after the update, i was using the same version, so i'm not sure that's what affected the game. I upgraded after the update, after i ran out of solutions. Do you still think i should give it a shot?
I tried running it on intel iGPU, as expected it was laggy, but in terms of pixelation, it was pretty much the same. Not sure what to make of it.
Also this might be useless and just AI gibberish, but i let chatgpt scan the 'GPU Benchmark Results' and 'GPU Score Results' from my sims folder (attached). I'm gonna insert below the answer it gave me, id that tells you anything. Either way, thanks a lot for your help.
GPU Score Results:
This score data highlights a potential issue, particularly with the "PLAYER render target" scores being 0.000. This likely indicates that the game is not properly detecting or utilizing your GPU for rendering the player's game visuals, which would explain why you're experiencing low graphics quality.
Key Points:
GPU Benchmark Results:
This performance report suggests a few important insights regarding your GPU's performance and rendering times:
Custom RenderTarget (Lower Resolution: 1280x720) vs. Player RenderTarget (Higher Resolution: 1920x1200)
@s0ftcurrents Yeah, most of that is somewhere between nonsense and wild speculation. For example, you know your Nvidia GPU is rendering the game (when you tell it to) because otherwise you'd see terrible performance. Its load is clearly not zero. It could be somewhat close to zero in certain circumstances, for example while you're in Manage Worlds, as that's a static screen. But it does still take some resources to render.
At any rate, the one interesting thing is the Custom Render Target being listed as a lower resolution. I'm wondering whether that's the problem, that the game is rendering everything at a lower resolution initially (for performance reasons) and then upscaling. IF this is happening, and that's a big if, it would explain the worse quality.
What tool did you use to generate the benchmarks? I'd like to compare my results on a couple of machines and see what I get.
And no, you don't need to install an older Nvidia driver if you don't want to. Since the problem exists when using the iGPU as well, it's not limited to the Nvidia card or driver.
To be honest, i didn't intentionally generate the scores, the two files just showed up in my folder. The only thing i remember doing was performing a system diagnosis and a 'driver error' diagnosis from myAsus, but I doubt the two are connected. I don't really know of any tools, but if you recommended one, i could try to generate benchmarks and share them here.
I'm wondering though, if the game is in fact rendering at a lower resolution than the one i set, is there a way to resolve the issue?
