I am trying to make the Sims 2 run on Windows 10 on my '15 rMBP. Does anybody have any experience with this?

I am experiencing graphical issues and some of the settings are inaccessible.

I tried using this http://www.simsnetwork.com/simpedia...aphics-rules-maker-improve-compatibility-with. It does not work at all, at least for me. No noticeable difference.

I changed some of the settings myself in the graphics config file and got the resolution to let me change it. I still can't access the anti aliasing in game.

Also, is it normal for stuff like this to make my MacBook run hot? I don't have exact temperatures, but this and some other older games like NFS: Most Wanted and Battlefield 2 make the computer run significantly warmer than like Minecraft or the Sims 4 does on OS X.

Thanks!

Most games run hot for me on Windows 10 Boot Camp.
