Clone Drone Jr. charm doesn't work
I use the charm and create a clone that goes to school instead of my child sim, but the school grade still drops by one grade level which makes the charm useless. I googled this and found that "Due to an unpatched bug, the child's grades will still drop by one grade level even though the clone has gone to school." Maybe this old bug could be fixed?
Sims 1 Legacy too zoomed in and blurry
I've been playing since the Legacy version was released. I had relatively few problems and the scaling was fine, everything looked really nice still and was clear and readable. I just launched it for the first time in about a month, and suddenly it's all blurred and in terrible resolution. I've changed nothing on my computer, everything is the same as it was when I first played. Did an update mess something up, or did something else happen? I'm running Windows 11, 1920x1080p, new-ish graphics card (Nvidia model within the last few years). Basically nothing has changed, I haven't even changed any system settings.
Remove regional differences in NBHD Screen / Unblock all music for non-US locale
Right now there is a difference when you play The Sims 1 Legacy using English language or any other: ENGLISH: the random track from \The Sims Legacy\Music\Modes\NhoodUS plays every time you visit the Neighborhood Screen, including: latin6.mp3 latin7.mp3 nhood1.mp3 nhood2.mp3 nhood3.mp3 - the iconic one which is absent in other languages ALL OTHER LANGUAGES: the random track from \The Sims Legacy\Music\Modes\Nhood plays every time you visit the Neighborhood Screen, including: latin2.mp3 latin4.mp3 latin6.mp3 latin7.mp3 so it basically plays Latin America style music even with European locales. What is the special need for this kind of segregation? in other the sims iterations there is small changes like clockwise or not road traffic, but not the music. Just include the all tracks in all locales, that would be fair. I think that nhood3.mp3 is the iconic one because the music matches the motifs of skill leveling up notification sound. And it exists only in English version. I'm also not sure that there is any sense at having different images with this black (World) or gray (US) asphalte roads in NBHD Screen like NScreen_unleashed.bmp and NScreen_unleashed_nonus.bmp from \The Sims Legacy\UIGraphics\Community. The black looks closer to the actual in-game lots using black asphalte tiles, and the US version has the gray asphalte and the road marks. If only black version could have these marks it would be perfect. Right now black roads looks unnatural without these separation lines.
Z-Buffers on outside SW Wall
Are you all aware there is a serious z-buffer issues where objects bleed through the SW Wall? Well, now you are! Please look into this. If nobody has mentioned it here, well it's been mentioned in a lot of other forums and is a real issue that needs addressing. Thanks, Heather C.
Stuttering when moving mouse.
I've recently changed from an intel MacBook Pro with windows 10 to a HP gaming laptop. The Macbook played the game fine, but now that I have a my new computer moving the mouse makes the game stutter. The whole game can grind to a halt if i rapidly move my mouse pointer around. It doesn't matter if I use the trackpad or an actual mouse. I should add that i've noticed that moving the mouse doesn't cause lag if you move the camera. So if I hold the right mouse button while the game is running the stuttering doesn't happen. Another thing i've noticed is that the mouse cursor flickers while playing. I did a clean install of Windows 11 and installed the game first thing, and the issue is still there. I conclusion, whenever I move the mouse cursor in game the game stutters and the cursor itself flickers. I've been doing some research and other people have reported similar issues in other games, their culprits are everything from background programs/apps to mouse polling rates. I've tried it all.
The Sims 1 Legacy: Resolution Issue
Hello everyone, I'm facing a resolution issue with The Sims 1 Legacy. Everything is working perfectly; the game starts normally with no errors or other anomalies. However, it starts in a very small resolution in the upper corner of the screen, while the rest is all black. The clickable area is as if the game is in full screen, making it impossible to play as I have to "guess" which black part of the screen I need to click to access the game functions. Before posting on this forum, I tried several solutions and found some temporary fixes. The issue seems to be related to Windows window scaling. For some reason, the game is conflicting with the recommended Windows scaling (in my case, 150% due to my 4K monitor with a resolution of 3840x2160). A temporary fix I found is that if I opt for a custom scaling (any value between 100-500), the issue is resolved, and I can play without any resolution problems. However, this scaling is applied equally to all connected monitors (yes, I have 2, one 4K and one Full HD), causing one or the other to have a huge or extremely small Windows interface. Additionally, my computer has been recently formatted. I've reinstalled the driver for my graphics card (Nvidia RTX 3070) multiple times and tried adjusting the game's individual settings to no avail. The only way I can play is by setting a custom scaling. Could anyone provide a more permanent solution to this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
