I'm just glad I thought to check it, though it took me forever to think of that. And then after all of that Origin went down and messed up my launcher getting rid of all my expansion and stuff packs. A restart sees that in order, at least it seems, but this weekend was not a great one for my game. A...

I apologize for updating this so much but I seem to have gotten rid of the white overlay. It seems in making any change to the exe file for the game it also made it to the launcher exe so unchecking the change and a restart seems to have fixed that. Load times change seem to be unrelated. Perhaps it...

I have tried compatibility mode and I tried putting in older options. Neither did anything. I even took out options and let the game run as new. From this I think the white overlay happens after I got into a lot. It might be one particular lot since I have used it to test because it was last save. I...

Something to note: I didn't have it in Compatibility Mode previously, however, if clicking and then undoing that one box did cause the issue would going into Compatibility Mode for Windows 8 smooth whatever happened, at least if that was the cause of the issue? I am just really slightly confused tha...

Sure.

Do I just copy/paste the lines you need? Or upload it?

Thank you for all your help.

I already posted the other post should we delete it?

as for config nothing has changed. This is the comp I have had for about a month.

I was trying to limit FPS and have caused some problems. Game takes longer to load and close and now when it does there is a white overlay left that is like the brightness being blown out. I had originally checked ‘disable full screen enhancements’. I undid it when that didn’t help. I can can fix th...

Should I make another post about the white overlay on desktop since it isn’t connected to the fps? It goes away if I shut down the computer but I don’t want to do that each time I play the Sims 3.

And the game game now takes twice the time to load.

Thank you I did get the FPS under control but I don’t know what is causing the loading issues and the white overlay. i had checked ‘disable full screen optimizations’ and turned off game bar. I undid both. Because they didn’t fix the issue I undid it but now load issues and whit overlay when I shut ...
