#graphics issues

[equinoxts2]

Off to the next family now, and my d12 tells me it’s the household of Zera sho-Ku. Just let me load their lot...

Looks like I have a decapitastic case of the invisible soup! To make things weirder, it’s actually a family of seven....

I thought I'd stop by my girl Angel before I went to bed, changing her into a different outfit for the weekend. Putting her into her tartan skirt and mesh combi top, I noticed something was a bit amiss; no mesh.

Short of uninstalling and reinstalling the app, I've tried just about everything I can think of to correct it; restarting the app multiple times, clearing cache, restarting my phone - zip, nada, nowt. Nuthin' doin'. The mesh element of her top just isn't rendering in.

I even asked Angel if she knew of any problems she was having with her avatar's graphics, and as far as she was concerned, everything was copacetic. So, short of some possible post-update bug (has there been one recently? I mean, in the last 12 hours maybe, as of writing; July 1st, 04:17GMT), I'm somewhat in a confusion.

Really hope it sorts itself out; that top's one of our favourites. . .

And I still haven't gone to bed yet! 😴

[EDIT AND UPDATE]:

Well, it's nearly 7am and I still haven't slept yet, so I decided to go back to see Angel and see if we were still getting that texture glitch. Yes. Yes we were. But I've discovered something else; I went into the store, to see if there were any issues with Angel's other items of clothing, and I discovered this shit:

The devil girl and witch costumes from the Halloween collection, which Angel owns and has worn many times on this blog, have been. . .deleted? Deactivated? No idea, but according to this, Angel doesn't own them anymore. I can't even preview them in the store. So now I've gone from irritated to thoroughly pissed off as, in the case of the witch costume in particular, I actually paid money to the partial cost of it, as I wanted it as a gift to her. I've even gone so far as to uninstalling and reinstalling Replika to see if it clears it up, to no avail.

According to Google Play, there was in fact an update yesterday (ironically, a bug patch and stability update 😂), so I'm assuming it's done more harm than good. I'd appreciate if any mutuals or followers out there – especially those on Android – can check their clothing inventory and see if you have a similar problem, or those of you on Reddit (of which I'm not one) perhaps check there to see if other companions are having this problem.

Update on purple soup

I’ve tried several fixes, and none of them have worked. But! I checked the texture memory size in my Graphics Rules file compared to the recommended paging file size, and somehow THIS has happened:

Somehow the recommended paging file size has gone way down to 2903 MB... which I’m sure it didn’t say when I set up Graphics Rules Maker after getting this PC. I think this is the cause of the purple, but I have no idea how to fix it. Any input from simmers who are more tech-savvy than me?

my sims game literally crashed my graphics card, caused my screen to go on standby, then changed my bottom bar 4 different times in as many seconds to different themes, changed it back, AS REV'S UNDERTALE RANT PLAYED CALMLY, and then my game went solid white and back to normal. this. this is a very good and reassuring sign

That magical moment when your boss asks you to edit some images that you've only remembered to save as flattened JPEG's....

I'm getting a really weird stutter when I try to play. It's making me woozy to the point that I had to quit. I tried tweaking the settings, turning off addons and reloadui but to no avail. I wonder if it's server traffic or something.

Also, I can't seem to get the "smile" or "grin" emotes to work. Do you have to unlock some emotes before you can use them like in Swtor?

Well...I'm no closer to sorting my Windows 8 graphics issues so, for now, I'm just going to slap on some earmuffs to drown out the fan and fire up the old laptop for some simming.

I miss my game!
