How to: improve your graphics!

Hey guys, so I decided to share some information about how exactly my game looks the way it is. I never edit any of my pictures from my recent games (only the old pics of the Descendants of the Sun legacy were edited), so what you see is exactly what my game looks like when I play it. This is because of a combination of things that I want to share with you all!

Important note: none of these mods actually affected the performance of my game.

My system: CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60Ghz RAM: 16GB GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB

My graphics settings are maxed out except for detailed lots which I have set to 4.

Lighting mod: Euranasian Weather by Nilxis

Cloud mod: Realistic Clouds by Nilxis

Now the cherry to the pie and what makes the biggest difference is an ENB I use with settings that I tweaked myself so that they fit the Sims 3.

ENB base mod: Improved Lighting and Shadows for ENB Generic 0.76

Now before you download and install this there are a few things you have to take into account:

1. This ENB only works properly when you play in windowed mode. I recommend the Windowed Borderless Gaming app to be able to play fullscreen windowed. When you do use this app, set the resolution of your game in the game settings to 1924 x 1084 with x and y axis -2 and -2. This way you get rid of the 2 pixel border which will distort your sims game.

2. I changed the settings of this mod to get rid of the bloom that made the game too glowy for me. I did this by changing the enbseries.ini file. You can download the adjusted file here. Exchange it with the original one!

3. When taking screenshots with the C option in game, it will not capture the ENB effect. I personally use the GeForce Experience shadowplay option to take my screenshots. FRAPS does not capture the custom anti-alias and will make your pictures look choppy.

4. You will have to turn OFF the smooth edges setting and turn on the anti-alias settings through your Nvidia or AMD configurator to get proper anti-alias. the ENB anti alias conflicts with the in-game one.
