Sims 2 won't play

@bev6usa It says the path isn't valid.

@bev6usa Where does it say that? When you use Graphics Rules Maker or when you try to add -w to run it in Windowed mode? Can you take a screenshot of the error and what you edited and post it?

I tried to send a photo of th message but it says the file type is wrong. The photo saves as heic instead of jpeg

@bev6usa My last message got marked as a solution so I am not sure if you managed to launch it.

However, you can also take screenshots by using the Print Screen button on your keyboard (or Fn + Print Screen) and pasting the image in Paint, which will let you save it as a JPG. You can crop out any unnecessary stuff.

I don't know why it got marked as a solution but I haven't been able to launch it yet.

@bev6usa Try making a space between the quotation mark and -w

It's playing but in a small window on the desktop

@bev6usa If you correctly used Graphics Rules Maker, you should have higher resolutions available in game options.

i used graphics rules maker exactly how you said. It's not the resolution. It will play but just a small window on the desktop. It doesn't play fullscreen and it doesn't play through origin.
