Automatically.

There are, though if the bug is with a package, it should be filed by someone
affected by it (I don't have Sims 3 or an AMD card, so I can't verify it). You
might try with fglrx.

FIXMEs are very generic, i.e., for each stub function/missing cases. The game
works fine for others, who rated it platinum. If it doesn't work for you,
please file a different report, which will be calculated into its rating.
