Water blinks red and Black...
Tenshii~Akari:
Ohh..... :shock: No wonder. Your graphics card won't be able to handle the water's original graphics... :icon9: My home PC has the same brand of video card, and even after updating the drivers thousands of times, the water still flashed red... so if you want blue water, the only way to get it is to get a new "higher end" video card (that's compatible with your computer, of course.)
(This is where the computer gurus logged onto InSim should step in. I have very little knowledge on which ones work well or not. I've done all I can do for the moment! ;) )

Everyone has their favored graphics card to use, so it's all a matter of preference. I'm an ATI gal, myself. I've got an nVidia in my laptop and I've had more issues with it than I've ever had with any ATI card I've had in my pc, but that's just my experience. Whatever you decide to get, I would suggest you go to the Sims2 site first and take a gander at the minimum requirements. The eps you have in your game will determine what the minimum is.
If you go here and click on the latest ep you have, you'll find a link on the bottom right of the page that will take you to the minimum system requirements. If you have/plan on getting Seasons, then I would suggest you look at that one.
Whatever you decide on, I would strongly recommend you go with a card that has a minimum of 256mb of memory. Anything less than that won't allow you to get the full visual impact of the game.

Well okay then xD
Thanx for your help, everyone!! =)
Got to get a new video card then... hope it doesn't take long because the flashing red water really bugs me =(
But the thing is... it didn't do it before. I've had the game for about 6 months and it only happened a month ago... but, oh well... it's still playable... can't build anything near the "ocean" or that has fountains... and have to look away from the sinks, LMAO xD
