Re: No interior sunlight/sunrays graphics bug

@T-Bone_Bryant  Have you confirmed that your in-game settings are on ultra?  Does it make a difference whether the room has a roof and ceiling, or flooring or walls for that matter?  Have you ever messed with graphicsrules.sgr inside the game's program files?

It would also be useful to test in a clean user folder, as in, move your entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, letting the game create a new one the next time it loaded.

    @puzzlezaddict  Okay, now I feel really stupid. I did all of your suggestions and it turns out that when I changed the "prop $ConfigGroup NumberCascadeLevels" in the graphicsrules.sgr to "1" - to get rid of that jumpy sun movement - that had started the issue. Look how beautifully the sun shines through the skylight onto the stairs <3

    Didn't even once consider that could be the connection. But also guess that's why Maxis never been able to fix the movement of the sun.

    THANKS THOUGH! Now I will contemplate what is more important to me XD
