   Any idea on how to get pass the error of Mansion and Garden Stuff? It says “Failed to find any DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapters…”

   everytime i load it i don’t have any neighbourhoods, the only option there is to create a custom neighbourhood. i went on another forum and tried moving my sims 2 file to my desktop but it didn’t work, does anyone know how to fix this?

         Set those default resolutions in every slot to 1920×1080 and if it starts to argue with you when trying to save the changes, you must choose that “Graphic Rules” -file and click “Properties” > Security and add “Full control” for ever group (just in case) then apply and ok and try to save it again, it should work.

         It still doesn’t let me save the file. What do you mean by “for every group”? Tried all possibilities but still denies changes.

         This picture is from Google but this is what you should see and in this pic you can also see what I meant when saying “for every group”. Just ask if you still need help, I’ll try my best with my english skills 😀 https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/10bd8688194323689bae22c5c4bf1ab29f94155e177c289a53e48d9f343e352e.jpg

    How can I change the language? I’ve tried to change it from Registry Editor but there’s no all needed folders so I can’t find it anywhere..
