Hi! first of all i love your legacy <33 I have no idea how to phrase it, but how do you make your reshade pick up lighting so nicely? Like the light blends and stuff. God i get it if you have no idea what i mean JNGGNF

ah! thank you, if i'm being honest i'm not 100% sure, i used @nesurii sunset vynil preset & adjusted/added shaders based on other presets i liked and this is what i'm kind of working with now. most of the light leaks/shadows are in game lighting. below are the shader's i'm currently using and the differences if that helps!

I haven't had a whole lot of time for fiddling with Sims games this week, what with migrating, settling in, catching up with friends here, and...Well, skiing/snowboarding. Lots of skiing/snowboarding. No apologies. :)

I'm doing a couple of rest days now, though, so I have been fiddling with the NVIDIA stuff a little bit, doing some research, some testing, and fiddling with settings a bit. So this is a post combining notes, some pics, a reply to @sims-influence​ that was too long to do as a reply on the post itself, and a reply to an anon. It's long, so I'm cutting the whole thing, but if you're interested in this topic in general, it might be worth a read.

1) At the suggestion of @twofingerswhiskey​, I switched the Ambient Occlusion compatibilty to "Left for Dead 2" instead of "Counterstrike: Source". I'm not noticing any huge differences in shadow rendering except that this seems to have solved the issue I had with faint shadows because I have normal shadows back now.

2) You definitely need SimNopke's Shadow Fix mod or else you will have the black rectangles under Sims when they are indoors, even if you turn shadows entirely off. Which, incidentally, you can do. In fact, you can turn off (or rather, set to "low," since there is no "off" setting) almost all of the game's native graphics settings. (The exception: Reflections. Leave that turned on, especially if you use a water shader mod.) With these NVIDIA settings applied, the graphics are mostly being controlled through the video card rather than the game. My graphics options now look like this:

And my game -- which includes Dreadpirate's less-blue-at-night radiance lighting plus Almighty Hat's "World Lit By Fire" tweak -- looks like this:

3) I don't want to reblog my huge-long initial post about this, but regarding a reblog of it that @sims-influence​ made of it: I'm glad to hear that these settings improve the appearance of Bodyshop as well. I rarely use Bodyshop, so I'm not sure I would have even thought to apply the NVIDIA settings to it! You might try some different compatibility settings assigned to Bodyshop, if you still want the better shadow rendering that ambient occlusion offers. One of them might make a difference.

(As an aside but in a similar vein, I have noticed similar weird "shadowing" in TS3's CAS with the ambient occlusion settings on, but it only happens when entering and exiting CAS, not when actively making a Sim in it, so it's not a big deal to me.  Which is good because of course TS3 doesn't have a separate Sim-making application like TS2 does, so if you turn off AO in TS3, you turn it off in the whole game. In TS3 there is also a small issue where the shadows of objects sort of bleed through the UI. It’s weird-looking, but doesn’t interfere with using the UI. I’m going to change the AO compatibility setting for TS3, too, so we'll see if that makes a difference there.)

Unfortunately, I have no answer for you about the post-effects mod. I don't use it and am not fond of how the game looks with those effects applied, so I'm not going to be the person who will resolve that issue, if it can be resolved. All I can suggest is to experiment with the settings and maybe you'll come up with a combination that will work. But at the very least, I would think that the anti-aliasing (which seeks to make images smoother-edged and crisp) is going to conflict with, for instance, the depth-of-field effect that that mod includes, since the whole point of depth-of-field is to selectively blur the image. Those two things, at least, would seem to me to be fundamentally incompatible, but as I am not an expert on this subject, I could very well be wrong about that.

4) Finally, a nonnie:

Do you mean that the changes just don't "stick" in the program when you click "Apply Changes" or that the changes "stick" but you aren't seeing any difference in your game? I have no idea what would cause the first issue, so I'm assuming the latter...

First of all, what video card do you have? If it's older/less powerful, it's possible that it is not capable of rendering at the level you're asking it to do. You might try using some less-strong settings. If you're playing on a laptop, are you certain that the game is actually using the dedicated video card and not an integrated graphics chip instead? Obviously if the game isn't using the dedicated graphics card, then these settings will have no effect. If you've got a good-enough card and you are certain that the game is using it, are you certain that you changed the settings for the right game? If you are certain, you might try using the NVIDIA Control Panel instead of the Profile Inspector to make the settings changes.

I did this in one of my user accounts because for some reason the settings weren't applying to the game set-up in that one user account. I think that for whatever reason it wasn't affecting the right .EXE that starts up the game, but I have no idea why when it worked just fine in other user accounts. I couldn't figure out how to add a functional new profile in the Profile Inspector, so I just decided to do it via the Control Panel for that one user account.

You access the Control Panel by right-clicking on an empty space on your desktop and choosing NVIDIA Control Panel and then when the panel comes up choose "Manage 3D settings" and then choose the "Program Settings" tab. Assuming that you are using the UC or have all EPs/SPs installed via disk, you'll want to make a new profile by clicking the "Add" button, clicking "The Sims 2 EP9" on the list that comes up, and then "Add Selected Program." Then you go through the various settings that the Control Panel offers, which isn't as many settings as the Profile Inspector, but you can set the major ones you need to make the game look very nice.
