Upgrading Computer Hardware
Ancient Sim:
I have Nightlife now and needless to say, because my video card is unsupported all the neighbourhood stuff was turned-off. I turned it all on, maximum for all, and it works perfectly. No slowdown and I can see everything easily and clearly. It seems to me that my card is perfectly capable of showing the cinematics, it just won't because Maxis don't recognise it. I know there's a way to trick the game into thinking your card is capable (someone mentioned it somewhere on this site recently), so does anyone know what that trick is? I've been able to add a cheat code to allow me to enable cinematics, but they still won't work because I know there's more than that I need to do. I see no point in getting a new card if the one I have is capable of running them. Certainly in terms of graphic detail and so on, what I see is no different to what people with fully-supported cards see in terms of what I have seen posted on forums.
gali:
Ancient, I got today NL, but it has not serial number on the box. Can it be installed without the serial number? Is it something new? - I didn't install the game yet, waiting for JMP's list of fixes.
gynarchy:
The serial number should be on the back of the manual.
Motoki:
LOL I did that too at first, I didn't see the serial on the back and CD case and paniced at first, but I guess since the box is the case they couldn't very well put it on the box.

I've seen that trick somewhere, hmm
Could this be the one you're talking about? http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=47559 (nomercy's post)
