Sims 4 Lagging

★★★ Newbie

So I've had Sims 4 for a while now and just got a brand new gaming computer, but now my game won't work AT ALL. It lags so bad that I can't even play the game anymore.

Probable reasons:
1.Cause - mods
If you have any mods
Move the mods folder to the desktop.
Delete localthumbcache.package file in the game folder
Fix the game in Origin.
Origin/Library -right click on TS4 - option "Repair game"
You have to wait until Origin will fix all packs, not only the base game.
Turn on the game to create a new, empty mods folder. Check if a game is working now without mods.
Then copy from desktop your mods and CC and paste it in the new mods folder. First, paste script mods every time checking if the game is OK. Do the same with CC but if you have a lot of this, try the 50/50 method


2. Cause - connection with internet
Unknown program in the background that connects to the internet lowers FPS rate. It is so low, that to play is near impossible. It can be even Windows itself sending data to Microsoft
Disconnect your internet completely and try without this.

3. Cause - problems with the computer (The computer does not meet the requirements of the game, failure Windows updates. week graphic card, outdated graphics card drivers, software failures, the ventilation system is dirty and the computer overheats when it is working hard)
Could you post your Computer's DxDiag?
