Sims Size or Resolution
Cindra:
Ok I'm wondering why my sims height is taller than I remember it being. I'm not using the "stretchskeleton" cheat either. This is just how the sim is normal size.
Is there maybe a way to reset the resolution or something? This is a brand new computer and I just got the game with all EP's and SP's installed earlier today. I don't know though, maybe it's fine but just looks different on a different computer.
Zoomed out all the way, I cannot see the top of my sims head. I've provided a picture for you all to decipher whether it is me or there is something I really need to adjust. Please inform me of anything that can solve this issue. Thanks in advance everybody!!! :)

While I can't say for certain, it might be an issue with using a widescreen resolution/monitor. My own copy of TS2 started doing that very same thing after I switched over to a new computer with a widescreen display. Changing resolutions didn't really seem to help it any. (change resolution via the Graphics options in game).

Yea I do have a wide LED screen on this new laptop of mine. I do love the way the picture just pops out at you and I'm able to have my settings maxed out which is nice also.
They only appear freakishly tall at the CAS screen. In-game it seems normal to me.
Thank you for your reply and input Jenna. I'm happy to know I'm not the only one experiencing this sim oddness. I appreciate your help.

Here's something for you to try...
1. Right click on your desktop.
2. Go to the properties tab at the bottom and select it.
3. In properties, select the settings tab.
4. In settings, increase your screen resolution to 1280 x 960. This is the standard resolution for most monitors.
5. Select apply, then ok and you should see everything on your screen get a bit smaller, but a lot more crisp looking.
The problem with new monitors on new PCs are that they haven't been optimized yet. All they do in manufacturing is check if the monitor itself is working. You have to set the resolution yourself. Hopefully this helps you out some.

Try this. It's a "fix" for CAS for use with widescreen monitors.
