Try turning off Laptop Mode; someone mentioned this in the discussion forum.

You have tried the V2 mod version?

I tried my game in Windowed Mode right now and it looks exactly the same as in Fullscreen Mode.

Thanks for this great mod, really improved the game. But I have a question, right now with your V2 mod installed, the unlit room (the room without any lamp / windows / all lamps turned off) is quite dark imo. Is it possible to make the unlit room little brighter?

I don't know how to do that with the settings in this file. Doesn't mean it isn't possible though.

Have you tried all the things mentioned in this thread? http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=533595
I don't know anything myself about this issue, only what I've read described by others.

Okay, if you manage to do that, it will be great. Thank you for the answer.

Thanks for this mod, good work!
Unfortunately, it doesn't really look that good in my game. The second version is much better than the first, but still there's too much blueish light for my taste, for example some objects in the bathroom are shining pure white and others are still much darker. The curtain thingy above the staircase also looks unnaturally bright and blueish, I think (in contrast to the floor, the table, ...)? However, it does brighten the rooms a lot, which is great.


(edit: I tried to attach a picture but it won't work. I can see it in my Attachments but even after waiting for hours now it doesn't show in my post. Hm.)

Thank you, very much needed!
Could you probably split the DATA files in two packages? I would prefer to simply alter the indoor lighting, not the outdoor lighting.

To my eye it looks a bit better with the increase, the world and objects and everything doesn't look so washed out. And I don't really see 'thick dark edges' everywhere.

Thank youuuuu
