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.
The Sims: Legacy Collection – UI and Map Background Issues
The 1920x1080 resolution differs from all others with a smaller UI and a more zoomed-out camera, also at resolutions higher than 1920x1080, the blue background in map mode is missing, and there is just blackness around the map I don't use any mods or CC in my game
Odd spawn point when Sim comes home from work or school (Sims 1 Legacy)
I noticed a minor bug, nothing game breaking, but when my Sim comes home from work or a kid comes home from school, they don't automatically spawn. I have to click their faces in the family and then they spawn by the mailbox rather than by the vehicle they exited. Happy to create a screen recording. Cheers, [Purchased via Steam]
Military Career won't progress
Recently streamed the game and recorded it (will eventually be on Youtube). One of my Sims has the Military career choice. Currently has enough points in his skillset to progress, and a couple friends, but he's still stuck in recruit mode despite going to work generally happy. Other characters have been able to move forward in their careers (sports, entertainment and criminal, respectively); can't seem to find anything specific about it but, yeah. This is for the PC edition of the Sims 1 Legacy collection on Steam.
The Sims 1 Legacy Cannot Wash Pets
So I'm struggling here. I have a pet, and have grinding my tricks, obedience ect, but come to find out I thought my sim was washing my pet but doesn't actually do it. So he fills the tub, calls, and then it drains immediately. I've put the wash station against the wall, outside, in an open space. The pet will be directly next to the tub. Deleted the tub, bought a new one. Nothing I do will get my pet to be cleaned, and now the pet will run away. Any ideas?
1080p UI Scale Size Still Needs Addressing...
With the new update comes the ability to change the resolution. This is a great addition and all, but sadly the UI size for 1080p users is still tiny, as seen in this screenshot attached. I understand some might suggest lowering the resolution to address the issue, but that really shouldn't be the ideal solution. Not to mention that lowering your intended resolution can result in multiple issues that people on the forums and the Discord Server have pointed out like jagged lines, bad anti-aliasing, and a blurry, ugly render. Those people deserve credit because I am not alone in this. We paid for this game, we have a right to play it in our intended native resolution and to play it with the correct UI size just like everyone else is. Please fix it. Until this is resolved, I plan to only play The Sims 1 Legacy on my Steam Deck so I can enjoy the game with the intended size.
