Initial Setup
1. Know the recommended specs for modern systems:
- Since TS2 was made for 2004 hardware, just about any recent computer should be able to run it. However, performance will vary depending on your specs. We recommend:
- 2 GHz CPU or higher, at least 4-8GB of RAM, and 20 GB free space (~15 GB is the bare minimum to install, but you’ll need more space for your neighborhoods and any custom content)
- GPU with DirectX 9 or Vulkan support
- Windows 10 or 11, or Linux using Steam/Lutris/etc.
- Original Requirements (for base game/older hardware)
2. Update graphics drivers (Windows):
{: .warning } "Microsoft Basic Render Driver" and pre-installed drivers from Microsoft/Windows Update cause issues. Make sure to use the latest drivers for your GPU directly from the manufacturer.
3. Install an archive manager (Windows) 📚:
- You’ll need this to extract various kinds of files for the game, especially if you want CC/mods! I recommend 7-Zip.
4. Disable OneDrive Documents syncing (Windows):
- Having OneDrive backup the Documents can result in disk space errors, conflicts, save-file corruption, missing hoods, etc. as it tries to sync before and during gameplay. You don’t have to get rid of OneDrive entirely, you can still use the main OneDrive folder - but at the very least the Documents folder itself should be local to your user folder/excluded to ensure the game’s folder does not get synced.
