Those who got Sims 4 CAS Demo plz share your PC specs

halimali1980

I have seen lots of videos and lots of pics of CAS Demo
While some pics look sooo good very smooth others do not look good and hard on edges and very blocky. Could be due to low PC specs or not proper way of taking screen shot.

To those who have it can you please share your PC specs, Your experience with CAS, if it worked smoothly etc.. And your CAS settings.

I appreciate your contribution here. Will help us to know where do we stand with our PCs when we get it

Although they have said Sims 4 will work better than Sims 3 did in low end comps....i doubt that it's the truth.


Mine is Mac 2009. 2.66 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
10GB ram.

I would bet you that it will not work well on my computer. More so because if they don't sell it as a native Mac game, i will have to play it through Parallells.

Here's mine:

CPU: Intel i7-2640M (dual core)
RAM: 8 GBs
OS: Windows 7 64-bit
GPU: Nvidia 525M 2GB

I've been playing the demo on high settings in 1080p resolution. It looks fantastic and runs very smoothly. I would be ecstatic if the actual game ran this well but I'm not counting on it!

I play most my games on my iMac through bootcamp, it is more stable than parallels
I play both Sims 2 and Sims 3 on my bootcamp

You should check origin to see if you got the CAS or not. It is invite only for now

Lindalu

HP h9-1180
i7-3770 CPU
3.40 GHz
12.0 GB Ram
Window 7 Home Premium, 64 bit (not in a rush to update to Win 8.1)

Works like a charm. Sims 3 runs great and any temporary glitches seem to be due to CC or updates etc. It has never been a computer issue. Graphics are great in the game as well.

I use Norton Internet Security for years. I run CCleaner regularly as well as Glary Utilities. Never have a problem with viruses.

A sample pic of the Sims 4 demo ( I think I want this guy to move in!)

Excellent specs and a very nice Sim

Sims 4 CAS works smoothly on the highest settings

I received the CAS DEMO. It's pretty cool. But its somewhat difficult to use. The game runs flawlessly or atleast CAS does...Im pretty sure the sims 4 will also run well on my computer considering I built it specifically for gaming....might up my processor.


here are two of my creations.

ebuchala

AMD FX8150 Build
3.6 GHz
8G Ram
Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-Bit
AMD Radeon R9 270x, 2G memory

Runs great on my system! I have default settings so I'm not sure what they're running at within the game.

Felicity

I'm on a laptop.

Windows 8
Intel i5-3230M
12GB RAM\
Dual 650m running in SLI (which the Sims does NOT utilize)

I run everything in ultra high quality, 1920x1080 in a full screen window. I run a browser and a few other applications on my primary monitor while CAS runs in my secondary monitor. It looks decent and runs well. I really appreciate the ability to run in a full screen window -- this is great for a dual monitor setup.

Is bootcamp any good on Macs? I have wine glass or something to convert Windows files to mac...

I installed on my crappy old laptop

Windows 8.1 32 bit
Intel Core Duo CPU, 2.1 GHz
2 GB RAM
Nvidia Quadro NVS 140M, 112 MB dedicated RAM







Also tried on my tablet but touch screen support is horrible. Did not take pics. Ran fine though

Windows 8.1 32 bit
Intel Atom (4 CPU) 1.8 GHz
2 GB RAM
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator, 0 MB dedicated RAM

I'm running the demo in bootcamp with this mbp,isn't set at max but looks and runs pretty darn well! I'm not sure the actual game will run though since the video card is meh.

I think the CAS Demo is okay on the low end machines but that' not the full game. I believe the same failures that TS3 had will arise when the base game is released then people start to add on EPs/SPs. EA has once again set the specs too low and I for one refuse to offer anymore "free" tech support for TS4.

Below is a re-post of part of my feedback for the CAS Demo.



Current Specs

OS: Microsoft® Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit Edition)
NOTEBOOK: MSI MS1762 (System Model: GT70 0NC series) Gaming Notebook 17.3" FHD LED-Backlit 1920x1080 16:9 Display
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-3630QM Mobile Processor 2.40 GHz (8 CPUs) 6M Smart Cache, Max Turbo Freq. 3.40 GHz
MEMORY: 16GB (4GBx4) DDR3-1600 SODIMM Memory (Corsair Vengeance Gaming)
HDD1: 750GB 7200RPM SATA300 Hard Drive
HDD2: 750GB My Passport External Hard Drive
VIDEO1: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 (For everyday use)
VIDEO2: NVIDIA GTX 675M 2GB (For gaming)



Overall I'm okay with the CAS Demo but it hasn't made me change my mind about pre-ordering, so I'm still on the fence. I need to see way more than this to make me change my mind (i.e. actual gameplay). I'm still looking for that "Wow Factor".

Note: I've also snooped around in the the GraphicsCards.sgr and GraphicsRules.sgr files. Turns out the Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 (integrated) isn't even on the list. You've somehow missed it and that is a widely used integrated card. Since it's not on the list the graphics were automatically set to low. Strange all the other Intel cards (even older) were there.

This needed to be added to the list.

I've since gone into the NCP and assigned the dedicated gaming graphics. As well as set the resolution to 1080p and the below.





Some of my creations in the Gallery.

Brandi and Skip Broke.


Brandi and Skip from TS2 days then.


My version of them now.




Here's my attempt at Pharrell Williams.

Second attempt at a version of my simself. Note: I liked this version better.

And finally today's creation - Maria DeLaChic. I really like her she turned out well.




FYI ~ I am uploading all my screenshots to a Photobucket album for TS4 located here.

I hope you all enjoy my creations!

Here are my computer specs (the language is Greek, my native one, hehe):



And some of the Sims I created:

gothprincess4ever

All of your creations look fantastic!

(I forgot to add on my previous message, all the settings for the Demo are Ultra/High and it runs smoothly, I'm completely satisfied with it!)
