After I edit the graphic rule sims 2 file at startup it gives me the error of directx9.0 not compatible instead if I do not edit the file the game starts but with low resolution, also after I edit graphic rule the graphic rules maker program no longer finds the path to the game. I play on parallels

SOLUTION: If you get the error after editing, then you're editing the file wrong - you've made a typo somewhere or used the wrong file type. You'll need to go through the instructions again and make sure you follow them exactly. Also ensure that you aren't changing the file type - it's an sgr file and needs to be saved as one while programs like Notepad would default to txt.

Follow up: How do I convert the txt file to sgr after I edit it??
Solution: add ".sgr" to the end of the file name before saving
