Purple/Black glasses and intransparent pools
Problem
My Sims glasses look like sunglasses
My Sims glasses look purple on the UI
My pools are solid instead of transparent. I can only see their head when they are swimming.
Cause
This is caused by laptop mode.
Solution
Turn off laptop mode in your graphics options. If you can’t do so because of performance, you need to live with the other issues.
It doesn’t matter if you have a laptop or not. Laptop mode can be turned off on all computers.
If the black glasses persist in the GUI after turning off laptop mode, be sure to delete the cache files.
