Do you really populate your worlds with sims that look like that? Creepy.


That's mean! Claeric looks like that.


Yes, that was the assumption I was working under. Which makes the whole thing not so much about simcest as self-love, eh? Oh what a magickal world of virtual onanism you hath wrought, EA!

Skadi:
I fail to see the problem. My screen looks the same at 1650 x 1080 and I have no issues with the catalogue. I am unaware of a UI mod for the catalogue, which leaves you with:
1. Get used to it like everyone else who has been playing since 2009
2. Try adding the other 16:9 res to the .ini files
3. Drop to a lower res, and have bigger UI but black boxing
4. Buy another monitor.

The UI *isnt* bigger with a lower resolution and the black boxing, because it's displayed at 1:1. If anything, it becomes smaller. Significantly so.

2 is a legitimate idea, however.

Edit: Or not. Black box. :| I have no idea why it isn't forcibly upscaling, maybe it's a Catalyst Control Center setting.

Perhaps the game just hates you.
Get one of those sheets of magnifying plastic.
