Transparent grills/plants Apartment Life--Resolved
reggikko:
I just brought my game up to speed with all EPs and SPs. The cheapest two grills and the rubber tree plant are semi-transparent (like a Sim ghost). I tried to take pictures, but they look normal in the pics. Sims can use them with no problem. I tested with my downloads folder out and no change. The items are affected on Residential, Apartment, and Community lots. Forcing an error does not change them, nor does using the recolor tool. Any ideas?

Graphics card or game graphics setting issues? I've seen other threads here where people have resolved the issue by turning on square pixels, putting things on lower detail, or adjusting other graphics settings on the game, and I think they've also resolved the issue by updating or rolling back drivers. I don't know that they had the problem with the grills, but I do remember plants mentioned. It's weird that they look normal in the pictures even though they're screwy in the game. Huh.

Also I've heard where altering the video card settings to set antialiasing to 'application controlled' will help. Check the ATI/ Nvidia control panel for that.

Here Regg, this is what it looks like on my system. I forgot to take a picture of the DJ booth but it's the same. Having just bought a new video card, I decided I just won't use those objects rather than cripple my clarity of view. I haven't tried with application settings running the video. If I turn anti-aliasing right down, the objects get solid again. I have an ATI HD4870.

You could also test a couple of different drivers for your card, Regg. Check if there is a recent update, or roll back to a previous version. There might be one that works without having to reduce your graphics quality.
I mean, we all know that no hardware or software producer would ever break something that was fixed in an earlier version, but...wait...no, we don't actually know that.
