As requested a SweetFX that does not alter the brightness, but just the sharpness.
This should work for any 32bit game, including TS4, TS3 & TS2 (reported to crash with TS2, I’ll check this out when I have time)
All credit goes to Ceejay.dk for the sweetFX tools.
Copy all files in FX folder in your main game “.exe” folder.
I prefer to right click my sims 4 desktop shortcut and go to open file location to get there quickly.
As long as your graphics card isn’t ancient you can run any of the HQ sweetFX’s, but only really good moniters and graphics cards will look good with the high or ultra. Otherwise, use medium or low sharpening.
To turn off & on toggle the f12 key.
Take screenshots with the f10 key, then they are placed as .bmps in the main game “.exe” folder where the sweetFX is installed.
Turn off edge smoothing in game. Anti-aliasing is done by the SweetFX.
Untick post processing effects to make the game even faster, the SweetFX does all the post processing itself.
Does not conflict with any other lighting mod.
Does not work with windowed mode. It will crash. Only use this with fullscreen (I’m looking for a solution to this)
to get this to work in ts3 simply follow the instruction above, to get this to work in the new 64bit version of ts4, you must follow the directions but also copy and paste the 64bit folder contents into the game bin. they will replace the 32bit parts.
