Re: Sims faces go blurry from a distance

@puzzlezaddict Hi again! I'm still working on trying the fixes you've suggested, but I recently noticed that the clouds in my sims' sky are gone and even when the post-processing effects are on, I don't get a distance blur, so I'm wondering if there's still some sort of reshade thing affecting my game (I tried it for a while then deleted it) and that could be contributing to my issues? If this is possible, how would I make sure reshade is fully removed and there isn't anything external affecting the quality of the game?

    @simsical-musical  Reshade could absolutely be affecting how Sims 4 looks.  As far as removing it, just follow the installation instructions, except backwards.  When you're done, it wouldn't hurt to clear Origin's cache and then repair the game.

    If that doesn't make a difference, please try playing in a clean user folder.  Move your entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  Don't add anything to it yet, and don't change the settings until you've looked around in-game to see whether the problem persists.  If it does, try fullscreen, windowed fullscreen, and windowed modes, and if they don't change anything, you can play with the other settings.

    If none of this helps, please run a new dxdiag and attach it to a post.
