Re: Simulation Lag

★ Apprentice
Hello @SimGuruIcarus
I've tried repairing the game. I haven't tried in other neighbourhood, it's been happening in the gym and in my sim lot, I'm gonna try in other lots/ neighbourhoods and see if the lag continues.

When it starts, it doesn't stop, only if I pause the game or open the building mode, then, after 10 secs starts all over again.

Thanks

Haven't notice anything wrong with the temperature, but I'll pay attention next time.

Thanks @roberta591

Re: Simulation Lag

You seem to have crashing from an Intel SST Audio Device. I found some information on how to fix that over here:

Could you post a new DxDiag? And maybe have a peek in your screenshots folder. If you have a lot of files in there, could try moving that folder outside The Sims 4 folder and see if the game runs any better without it?

Here's my new DX doc, after doing some updates in the drivers. Also, can't do anything about the Intel SST.

 

Thanks for your time

Re: Simulation Lag

That looks a lot better already. Could you make sure the game runs on your GeForce card:

Done, I'm gonna check if it works later. Right now I only have two drivers that i can't update, is the Intel(R) Wtachdog Timer Driver and the Realtek High Definition Audio. Don't know if any interferes with the game.

Thanks again!

Re: Simulation Lag

I don't think those should have any effect on the game.

Unfortunately nothing worked! Still lagging. I'm going to use my last resource: uninstall the game completly.

Re: Simulation Lag

Could you try letting the game make a new game folder?
- Go to Documents\Electronic Arts\
- Rename the 'The Sims 4' folder to something like 'The Sims 4 old' 
- Start the game, this will create a new folder.
- See how the game runs then. 

 

It could be one of the files is just bit too big.

I think I've found the problem. I have a lot of CC + max graphics while playing. That's the problem! So, now I'm playing with good graphics (not max) and it looks ok. Thanks to everyone envolved
