Re: DirectX 11 Technical Issues and Feedback Thread
Can't Alt Tab out of the game when in full screen. It's helpful to be able to do this when you only have one screen.

@lizzalii Does Alt-tab work for you when using Windowed Fullscreen mode? I've never played in windowed fullscreen

Try going to Game Options > Graphics. Then change the Display Type to "Windowed Fullscreen". Then click the "Apply Changes" button. - @TheSimsDirect No, that did not work. The colors are yellowed, the images are not sharp. It hurts my eyes to play. I have tried repairing and everything else. It is broken and unplayable - again.
Finally fixed it by toggling DirectX9 and going back to full screen.

Good to hear! Would you be willing to share your dxdiag? It may help the team investigate why the DX11 version of the game wasn't working for you. Here is my Dxdiag. Hope it helps.
It works in windowed fullscreen, thank you! Still, I think it should work in any display types.
Go to settings and revert back to direct x9 it will be able to close out now
- @lizzalii same issue... and not only. I noticed, that my soul journey wish is costume party, but I don´t have option in Plan social event, there is no incognito party option at all... I have Get together pack... so...
I have tested and can confirm, there is indeed an issue right now affecting the San Myshuno sea in that skyscraper district when Directx 11 is enabled.
