Snow Leopard (mac): does upgrading fuck up the game?

<< < (3/3)

I just managed to get it working actually. 

I did run software update, but originally that did not successfully help.  I thought about the issue over dinner, and came to the conclusion that it might of had something to do with restoring my information from my Time Machine backup.  When I installed the sims, the launcher showed my login information as it had been restored from Time Machine.

What did work was reinstalling Snow Leopard and not restoring any information from Time Machine.  Lucky for me, this was easy to do as it only takes me a few minutes to back up mail, iCal, etc.  All my music and photos are already stored on external drives.  After reinstalling 10.6, I ran software update (1 item found), and then installed Sims 3.  After Sims 3 installed, I immediately applied the patch.  Then, with that accomplished, I logged in though the launcher and ran the game.  Volia!  Starting over from scratch with the Sims, but that's ok.

I am now, officially, a happy camper.

Jut for the record, Apple had already put out a huge upgrade to 10.6 (wow  ::)), because apparently there were significant security issues with the upgrade. Downgrade of Adobe Flash included.

Out of curiosity-- do all of your graphics look more or less the way they did prior to upgrading? I only ask because the weird TS3 graphical glitches I've been reading about are what is currently putting me off from upgrading to Snow Leopard.
