I'm not installing this patch until Pescado tells us why it's so big, even if the answer is they had to include a bunch of really huge sound files in an already overly bloated code mess. Hopefully he still will. 3 things, *big* patch, what? It doesn't fix much anyways - there'll hopefully be a better one along that... uh includes the pets fixes, I hope.

Hmm... that explains why some people on the BBS were saying that they had modified Graphics Rules.sgr and the Seasons patch wouldn't install because of it. Why you would mess with that file is lost on me, though.

Kyna:
I wonder if that's why I couldn't patch?

I edited my graphicsrules.sgr file so that I could play in higher than 800x600 resolution.  But that doesn't explain why I can't uninstall.

The BBS itself has instructions on modifying that file so you can play TS2 in full widescreen mode, which isn't a mode natively supported by the default graphic rules.sgr.  I had to do it on my laptop to play in 1680 x 1050 without weird stretching or compressing of the sims.

AH HA!!!

Now to fortify myself for a trip through the BBS to find out how. The things I do for my sims.
