Sims 3 Mac

★ Apprentice

So, this has been going on since i started playing the sims 3 for my mac. Whenever I play for a few minutes my mouse cursor shows up then it freezes, I really don't get this problem and it just happened again today. So anyone please help me.

Hello again Standard smile

 

Sounds like it's lagging through memory issues. Have you installed any new CC/Mods or game packs recently? Or are you playing a large household? Does it happen on community lots more frequently?

Hi, I installed some cc and game packs, and I'm playing a large household.

That's probably the cause. I can't remember which Mac you have, was it a MacBook Air or 13" MacBook Pro? If it's a lower spec machine (not a high end 15" MacBook Pro, 27" iMac or Mac Pro) it's probably starting to struggle as you add more into your game. If you want to keep everything you currently have installed you'll probably have to lower your graphics settings in game and enable laptop mode (if available).

 

Try removing just the CC first to see if that's causing the issue.
