The Sims Complete Collection visuals are washed

jackofthehowley wrote:first of all, apologies that this isn't to do with the sims 3 (that's working), this is to do with the sims 1. I downloaded the complete collection from thepiratebay, the installation was fine, until i created a family and moved them in. everything expect the ui and my sims was washed, the house and its furniture etc. I've tried lowering the settings and I've my drivers are up-to-date. it looks like my game is a painting with water over it. I've enclosed a picture of the glitch. thankyou for reading.

It seems the photo isn't there. I'm new to the forum (posting a thread-wise)

Hello,

I experienced this glitch too. this glitch can be easily solved by restarting your game and don't alt-tab or press the window key when The Sims 1 is being loaded.

I tried it today and didn't alt-tab, it still happened. strange...
