Ok, for some reason my game started looking really freaking clear.

I loaded up my game and was bombarded with crisp and clear graphics. I'm able to see things that I have never seen before. Mind you I'm not complaining, but does anyone know why? Does it have to do with the update?

If you have a decent video card and now with the game full 64 bit you now how use of all your ram - in the game and in your video card that was not available under 32 bit because 32 bit never lets you use more than 3.5 ram and windows even takes part of that 3.5 - but now it's all available to you and ram allows you so much freedom when you have it and can use it. Especially if you know how to tweak your system to get the most out of it. It gets good even not knowing - but knowing how to tweak opens a whole new world in gaming systems - especially if you have a gaming desktop. Nothing like it.

I think the pre-DU patch mentioned updates to graphics so that might be it.
All the icons are so clear that it feels so unusual. I do have to mention that icons for Jumpy (dogs) and Playful (cats) traits have been changed.
What have you discovered with these new crisp and clear graphics? And most importantly: want to share screenshots?
Well I noticed the toys in the pet toy bin, the leaves on the bonsai tree, and I have a canning mod and the pickles were super clear in their jars. And I noticed all of this literally within a minute of loading up the game. Hopefully this is a good picture to show what I mean, though I think there might be some degradation of quality from game to screenshot.
I'm using a desktop computer.
Haaaa.
Same, I have a desktop gaming rig with an Nvidia 1060 gpu thatI have played on ultra graphics since I set it up two years ago, and I have a save where it’s currently summertime and my family lives in the Parkshore house in Pendula View in Willow Creek, between the Goth’s house and that little park. While they were sleeping I suddenly noticed all this movement around the street lamps, when I focused in it was moths/insects flying around the light. I had never ever seen that before. I have to admit I was quite enraptured and it made me feel so happy because it’s those little details in this game that I just adore!
I never noticed the subtle stripes on the caps of that tree playhouse before and I use it all the time. I also never noticed the little face drawn on the LEGO table.
