World Map UI glitch on Windows on ARM (Qualcomm Adreno X1-85 GPU)
Platform: Windows 11 on ARM
GPU: Qualcomm® Adreno™ X1-85
Game: The Sims 4 (EA App)
Mods/CC: No (issue occurs without mods)
DLC: Multiple DLC installed
Description:
The World Map view is severely glitched. Lot grid overlays, world tiles and UI icons overlap incorrectly, making the map visually broken. Gameplay itself works (CAS, Live Mode, Build Mode), but the World Map UI is not rendering properly.
Steps already attempted:
- Removed all mods and CC
- Cleared cache and reset The Sims 4 folder
- Repaired the game via EA App
- Changed graphics settings (fullscreen, windowed, UI scale, V-Sync off)
- Forced DirectX 9 launch (-dx9)
- Tested multiple saves and worlds
None of the above resolved the issue.
Additional information:
This issue appears to be related to running The Sims 4 via x64 emulation on Windows on ARM with Adreno GPU. The problem started after a recent update and occurs consistently.
Expected result:
World Map should render normally without overlapping grids and UI elements.
Actual result:
World Map UI is broken and unreadable due to overlapping layers.
Please investigate compatibility issues with Windows on ARM / Qualcomm Adreno GPUs.
