Community ManagerTry adding the game executable to the 3D Games section of your GPU control panel, set your quality preferences and apply those and then retry. This will prevent your machine from trying to use your on board Integrated Graphics Processor.
Tried adding with it and messing around with the settings, still nothing.
EDIT: By forcing the game to run in windowed mode, it worked fine - at least, it managed to start up. I guess that's the best solution for now?
How i force it to start windowed?
to make it start windowed
find your EP9 exe (in The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection/Fun With Pets/SP9/TSBin, wherever you have your origin games saved)
make a shortcut on desktop
right click the shortcut->properties
find where it says target and add to the end of the link a space, followed by '-w' (no quotation marks)
it should look like this: "[Wherever It Is On Your Computer]\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Fun with Pets\SP9\TSBin\Sims2EP9.exe" -w
then use the shortcut and it should start windowed.
It worked for me so I hope it would work for everyone else having this problem
Even running in windows didn't seem to work for me..
What does any of that mean?
