high texture detail, crappy clothes details

<< < (2/4) > >>

Brynne:
I "randomly" had this problem back on my old laptop, and the texture of the blurred clothes would appear a bit better on a lower graphics setting. It was very frustrating. The grass was blurry, some of the clothing (but not all!) was blurry, and objects were clear as day. There was a thread about it here a long time ago, but I don't think anyone ever came up with a real answer. Sometimes rebooting would clear it up for me, but the problem would still sporadically occur.  :-\

Edit:

Yes, it's been posted here, and I posted pics from when it was happening in my game in this thread.

(Heh - OT, that's when I had a weird resolution, and all my sims looked wide. I thought they looked "normal" back then. I play those same sims, still, and they're much thinner on my mac. :P )

You need to set your in-game resolution to something that is proportional with your actual screen aspect ratio, or else everything will end up looking warped.

I have the same problem, random, with Seasons and the computer change, from iMac G5 to MacIntel. I blame the video card.

Well, I haven't had the problem on the macbook pro. I just had to get used to seeing my sims as they were supposed to look.  :P

I also haven't had the blurry clothes issue since the laptop I had when I made those posts back in 2006. That was a HP zv5240us or something like that. It had an Ati Radeon 9000, which was crap. After that, I got a Winbook with an ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 with 128 dedicated, and had no issues with blurry clothes. The card in my mac is pretty good, so I'm guessing the blurry-clothes issue I had was because of my crapola graphics card back then? 

J. M. Pescado:
Blurry textures could be the result of your graphics card running out of resources, yes. I've never seen it, though.
