Sims 1
Anyone have Sims 1 with windows 11, recently able to get the game to play on windows 11 but it's only playing in the lowest resolution option, I definitely remember there was a higher resolution than...
By default it runs in 800x600 but it can also run in 1024x768 (the neighborhood screen will have a frame around it but the lots will fill the resolution).
My shortcut (not the exe but a shortcut that opens the exe) for 1024x768 windowed is as follows: "YOUR_FILE_PATH_HERE" -r1024x768 -w
The -r1024x768 plays it in the larger resolution. The -w puts it in a window if you also want that. (On the off chance you need debug mode for whatever reason (it gives a popup if an object encounters an error and it writes an error file in the exe's folder that can help you trace where an object error is coming from), that'd be -debug_objects. Also, if for some reason you need the 800x600 code for the shortcut: -r800x600)
