[PS/XB] Low FPS in Live Mode (Not Build/Buy Related) [ Edited ]

I will say. Try restarting but turning off your Wi-Fi connection. That worked for me. Btw I play on Xbox One

Hey guys, I just got a ps5 a few weeks ago and have been happily playing The Sims 4, with a handful of DLCs installed, everything has been running perfectly and loading fast, however suddenly my game randomly starts running slow.

I dont know what it is, sometimes if fire happens on the plot, or i fast travel, or I switch between floors, my frames drop and stay dropped for a long while (about 5 minutes)

I've tried everything I could think of, I dont know if its cause my save is getting a little older (I'm on my 4th generation of kids)

Any help is appreciated! (Sorry if this is the wrong place, I'm new here)

I have/had the same issues. I tried figuring out what I added that may have caused it. Started with the notifications, because it started lagging awfully soon after I received the 'notifaction wall full' notification. So I removed all of them and boom. Lag gone.

Hopefully this is all that's to it and it helps your game as well.

I might have to try that. I've also had this lag issue consistently, and I have noticed pausing and un-pausing can make a difference, if the lags related to build mode.

Ever since the update that brought werewolves, almost every action in game has resulted in a massive FPS drop from which I can't recover unless I restart the game. It has made the game almost unplayable and really makes me not want to play. I'm on PS4 with most packs installed. Has anyone else encountered this problem? If so do you know a way to fix it?

@Michael_Pedretti Was talking to someone a couple of hours ago on twitter they said uninstalling the game and redownloading it solved it for them.

@chisatos You could try uninstalling the game and reinstalling that worked for me.

Me too. Game is unplayable since the werewolf pack. Constantly restarting my game to fix the lag. Most of the time it doesn’t work.
