Red, flashing walls.

[finalxhour]

For the past week, I have been reading over the forums trying to find a solution. I got Family Fun Stuff last week, ( I have all EPs now ) after installation everything seemed fine. I went into the Callente sister's lot to find the walls were flashing. I closed it out and went to other lots. They were all flashing. I also couldn't go into Live mode on a few attempts. I quit the game and took out my downloads and re-opened the game, went into several lots and they were all still flashing. I then uninstalled Family Fun Stuff and re-opened. It was fine. I re-installed the game without the downloads and the walls were flashing again. I don't understand what's wrong, please help me. This is making me insane, I need my Sims :!: :(

It's the same thing that's happening to me! I posted like 3 hrs ago! It's frustrating!

Really, I'm sorry... I went through all the forums and couldn't find anything like mine... Maybe I over looked it... I'm sorry if this is like a double post or something. If need be, I'll delete. The only difference I see is that mine didn't happen from downloading anything, I already had a ton of downloads, and before I install a new expansion pack, I always take them out. Nothing happened out of the ordinary with any of them, it's just FFS, and even with the downloads gone, it still flashes.

That could be my problem too. I don't know... like I said, I just noticed it after I DLed some new stuff. *shrugs*

That happened to me. All i could do was get rid of FFS.

If you have FFS, then it's a known issue with unsupported graphics cards. If you do not have a supported graphics card, then you either need to upgrade your hardware or uninstall the Fun Stuff pack. Bear in mind that if you uninstall, your games will no longer work without the FFS pack. Also, uninstalling usually results in deletion of your files so please back up your downloads.

Thank you! I thought I was just doing something wrong. I guess I'll have to get rid of FFs until I get a supported graphics card. :(

cenagirl696, FFS means the Family Fun Stuff pack.
Which expansion packs do you have? What graphics cards do you and your friend have in your computers?
