Miscellaneous Q & A and Unfulfilled Requests

There is one other thing I can think to try and do, But I personally I think it should only be used as a last ditch effort.
That is open up the file Graphics Rules.sgr and look for every instance of boolProp enumerateMultisampleLevels false. Change everyone of them to true. If You haven't done so already I would use a fresh copy of the file(unaltered EA version).

Also You might want to look over these two threads over at leefish's website.

If you want to find out what your graphics card is, download GPUZ from http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/gpu_z.html. Run it and it should tell you what it is.

Hey Mac I am unsure if You were able to figure out the issue or not. But Toni sent me a link for a tool that can edit the the files doing with the Graphics rules. It has a fairly simple interface so it should be pretty easy to use. If You have any interest in it, It can be found here.

Thanks for the tip. Didn't quite seem to work. Dumped me into 800x600 in the game, allowing no higher resolution. For the moment I'll continue living with a few jaggies. But thanks, anyway!   

Anyone here have any experience with Simlogical's School types mods? SIMLOGICAL

I had an weird thought last night and presented it to Aaron as a possible future sims 2 project and he gave me this link (He thought it interesting but wasn't sure he wanted to do anything like it) and sadly, most of the stuff really doesn't have a lot of explanations and there doesn't appear to be a forum for them anymore to ask questions.

My thought was since there is a private school, the game might give modders a way to create a 3rd type of school system(or replace the private school) and I thought, wouldn't it be cool if we could create a school sim kids and YAs could go to based on Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry...Have to make a new Headmaster for it, some appropriately old looking bearded sage...lol Thought would be cool if we could mod a new bus for it based on the 'Night bus' from HP3...So I turn to you my friends for any help you can relay!

Thank you!

Hey, Tim!
I don't play with very many mods/hacks, only a few chosen minor ones I can't live without.
I'm not familiar with any of Simlogical's TS2 School Types (mods).
I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

Yes, VERY!!!
That might've required a whole EP of it's own probably!
Like you, I am a huge Harry Potter fan and would've loved such a game experience.

Hey Ms Sugah!

Did you know there is a teen career on MTS that if you use a mod that suspends school for kids, you can then give your teen this career and the career is based on like a student going to Hogwarts...It's pretty cool. But not really what I was hoping for.

Since no one had really spoke up and not being the long to wait kind of person. LOL The Simlogical site has this Prep school, which you use the school changer to assign the kids on the lot to go to and it is actually pretty cool...I haven't done a lot of testing with it. I had it and the latest Manipulator in my game and it crashed before they could actually go to class, so I took those out and left in the Manipulator and it crashed 2 more times after...so now I have the InSim back in and I need to go test and make sure...I am not sure what is crashing...maybe the lot is bugged...it's fairly new, I had created it to demo the teen babydoll outfits so I wouldn't think it was bugged. Will find out after I get back in a run it for a couple of hours and see if it crashes anymore.

Been trying to think of a new Challenge for TS2...going to be kind of like the legacy but with some differences...Not too sure how feasible it will be though...already looking at mods that perform specific functions to make it more 'realistic'...
