[CURRENT ISSUE 64-bit] Pixellated shadows [ Edited ]

[puzzlezaddict]

Shadows are quite pixellated in-game, in both the game window and in-game screenshots.  This affects sims:

as well as objects:

This treehouse roof is especially dramatic:

These are all EA-made items, with no lighting mods or other attempts to tweak the game's graphics.

@bbmuchsims  The pixellated shadows have been an issue since the beginning, although not on all systems.  I see the same thing.  In-game screenshot:

Taken with cmd-shift-4 (screen capture/snip tool):

I don't think there's much to be done about it, to be honest.  But if I get any info, I'll let you know.

These shadows really look horrific. My kid thinks they are great because they remind him of Minecraft. I think they look awful.

I know there'll be more important issues with the game, but I just want to post some screenshots here.

Those pixelated shadows are ugly lol

@fwmello I have the same problems presented by everyone in this post.
