Fixes

Install
Close The Sims 3 and its launcher, then replace ApexRadiance.asi in The Sims 3\Game\Bin. Existing settings and presets remain compatible. No additional DLL is required.
Known limitations
Lighting updates may still take time in some scenes. An isolated indoor cross-story update delay resolved during testing and remains recorded for follow-up. No measured FPS increase is claimed.
