Sims 4: how do i record in bigger resolution w/ in game camera??

Hello, i need help. I've been looking for hours on how to edit my sims 4 video camera graphics.

I have checked many threads and everyone is saying is to do these steps:

open the folder where you install your Origin Games and then go to The Sims 4 > Game > Bin > res. In the ”res” folder, you’ll have to open a configuration setting file called ”VideoRecording”.

When i proceed to do this, i get all the way into my "res" folder, and the only thing i see is the "Camera" i have nothing else in my folder. Can someone please tell me what i'm doing wrong, or if the file has moved or its gone please help. 

i have attached below an image of my res folder.

  • @malenamc  There should be a number of other files in the res folder in your screenshot.  Perhaps repairing the game will restore them.  First, clear Origin's cache:

    Then open your Origin game library, right-click on the Sims 4 icon, and select Repair.

    If that doesn't help, try moving the res folder to your desktop and repairing again: that should regenerate the entire folder with (hopefully) all its contents.  If the folder doesn't reappear at all, let me know.
