    Comment: Game does not run, black screen with sound or at best, game running on very low settings, textures flickering. Tried some modifications (like Graphics Rules Maker), compatibility troubleshooting or guide provided at https://forum.parallels.com/threads/sims-2-graphics-issues.210407/ but no luck really. Technically found a gameplay video with method used on that forum but personally had no luck with this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMhcrvuveKc
