[h2]Fixed Issues: [/h2]
- General stability and performance improvements
- Alt+Enter does not always scale the way players expect
- The Sims can crash if a Sim interacts with the shower while the Tragic Clown is on the lot
- If The Sims gets minimized while loading packs for the first time, the player can be prevented from interacting with the game until it is restarted
- Lots whose families are on vacation do not have a Vacation icon
- Tiles around pools are rendered with original fidelity
- The Sims would minimize if it was not the foreground application
- Aggressively cycling through window zoom levels and full screen with Alt+Enter can lead to unresponsiveness or a crash
- The UI scaling at different levels can be too extreme
- In windowed mode, the bottom of the game window will sometimes default to being behind the Windows taskbar
[h2]Functionality Improvements: [/h2]
- The Sims now has in-game options to control window size, game resolution and aspect ratio (derived from resolution) used at launch
- The Sims is now using an improved pixel scaling strategy that provides better looking sprites, UI, etc
- In windowed mode, the game window can be resized and the game palette (where The Sims is displayed) is scaled to match the window dimensions. The Sims will preserve the original launch aspect ratio
[h2]General Notes: [/h2]
- The Sims requires a Vulkan compatible GPU. Please check on your GPU manufacturer’s website to see if your GPU is compatible with Vulkan and ensure you are updated to the latest driver version.
