Sims 4 Lagging. Need help?!

★★★★★ Newbie

 

I do not liking asking people but

 

 

This pop up screen, on the start up of the sims 4, says I need to switch to a 32 bit. It said I was running on a 64 bit. 

I switch folders and the screen still says it. I made sure my computer was updated and I made sure origin was updated as well.

 

I'm sooo upset. Can some one help me? I do not want to reset origin.

 

My sims games lags. the loading takes for ever!

Yes, I have CC.

No, Its not the CC.

Before anything, I had over 200 CC on the sims 3 and 360 CC on the Sims 2. I just Have 9 CC on the sims 4. 

Help me understand please!

 

(sorry for any misspelled words)

Hi @hazeljay

 

If you run the 32-bit game it's normal to have lags, because you use maximum to 4gb of RAM.Wink

 

-Open Origin


-Go to My Game Library Tab


-Right Click Sims 4


-Click Game Properties in dropdown


-Switch to 64Bit at the top where it says "when launching this game" via dropdown.

NOTE if your issue persist :

 

Clear Origin cache https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/origin/origin/origin-my-games-list-is-blank/

 

Restart your machine .

 

Run the setup file Origin with Admin rights  http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-do-i-run-a-program-or-a-game-as-an-administrator/#2


 

My Opinion is no more important or right than yours.I'm a gamer like you, trying to help you (i'm not an EA employee).
