#The sims 2 body shop package installer how to#

I was doing my usual downloading and editing of CC today and thought, “hey maybe someone out there might want to know how to do this,” and thus this visual guide was born! I wish I would’ve known how to do this when my picky self was first getting started 1.5 years ago. I’m running Win10 with Nvidia GTX 1070 graphics card and Intel i7-8700 processor, and disabling the shaders AND deleting thumbnails regularly has proven to be the only way of me playing the game without random crashes because of the flashing pink texture issues.Īgh I’ve been fighting with this issue for days! Certainly going to try these tricks Tip#8: Change your settings in-game to match the ones shown in the video above! ( Shadows: off, Lighting: medium, view distance: medium) This will help prevent any further issues. I have to delete the thumbnails every time before I load up the game. – If you start getting the flashing pink glitch while playing on a lot (can happen especially if you’ve been running the game for a long time), save and exit the game and delete all thumbnails before restarting the game. Tip#7: Delete the game thumbnails from your Documents > EA Games > The Sims 2 > Thumbnails. Tip#6: Use “ boolProp UseShaders false” to stop the flashing ( I’ve added this to my userStartup.cheat file so it will stay on automaticly, especially since I have certain neighborhoods that will always flash pink in the neighborhood view… *cough* Clayfield *cough). – IMPORTANT! Watch THIS VIDEO to learn about the flashing pink issue and apply one or more of these tricks: If you continue to have these issues despite of applying the changes above, try these methods! (My game has FINALLY stopped crashing and flashing after I tried these and made permanent changes to the game itself!) Special thanks to Jessa, Gina and everyone on Leefish forums for all the useful information and tips on how to fix the graphical problems!ĮDIT// Even after applying all the tips above, the flashing pink glitch and the crashing that followed came back to my game after few days. Hopefully it’ll be useful and helpful for you guys!

I’m listing here all the tricks I did both for you guys and for myself aswell, in case I need to go through this whole thing again at some point in the future (after switching Graphics Cards, which thankfully won’t happen in a few years!). = Thanks so much to Gina for this tip!=Ĭheck out Jessa’s post on ModTheSims for more links and important information: Set the custom amount for your main drive to be 25,000-30,000 and click “Set”. Tip #5: (Not sure if this is necessary after applying #4, but I did it before I fixed the memory leak issue and didn’t have any crashes after that either) Make sure your Virtual Memory amount is set high enough in Control Panel > System > Advanced settings > Advanced tab > Performance settings > Advanced > Virtual Memory.

Tip #4: Especially if you are playing on Windows 10, make sure to do the Memory Allocation Fix that Jessa shows in the video above! You NEED this! This fix also helps Windows 7 users!!

Jessa shows in this VIDEO how to download AND fix the patch:

If the memory under “Machine info” (top of the list) is anything less than 4000MB (mine says 4096 MB), the patch hasn’t been fully applied.

Open a file called “COMPUTERNAME-config-log”. Tip #3: If you have applied the “4 gig patch”, make sure that it is working properly.Ĭheck your Documents > EA Games > The Sims 2 > Logs folder and That Display Memory is the amount you need to change for your Graphic Rules-files. Open and check your Display Memory under “Display Devices”. Tip #2: Make sure that you have to correct texture memory amount assigned for your game! If you haven’t already, run DxDiag on your computer ( ), click “Save all info” on the bottom and save it on your desktop. Make sure to copy the new Graphics Rules AND Video Cards files to both folders in the installation location (Config and CSConfig). Tip#1: Make sure to check that your Graphics Card is listed in the Video Cards.sgr files in your Sims 2 installation folder! If not, use the Graphics Rules Maker, add your GPU to the list and double-check that it HAS been added there (I had problems with this and had to do it manually in the end!). Hey penguins, wanted to follow up with my previous post about my Sims 2 crashing and the tricks I used to get it working again! Since applying them, I haven’t had one crash or purple flashing since! (At this point, I have played the game several hours, switched households multiple times and loaded a ton of lots to make sure the issues are gone)
