Simulation Lag

[ Edited ]

Hello

Till now I have solved most of the problems I had with the game, by myself, but this one is one that I can't find a way to solve.


It's starts right here, I have bought a bundle (Seasons + Jungle Adventures + Laundry Day), and since then the simulation is lagging.Usually I am in a lot, and after 5 minutes playing, the game start lagging, infinite task (even with i cancel the task), the time goes on but my sims and other sims don't move a leg...

 

I've tried everything, (delete all my mods, use the SimulationLagFix...) and nothing worked. Right now I am really upset, because I am spending more time trying to solve this problem, than playing.


I really hope someone can help me with this situation.

Thank you.

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

Make sure your drivers are up to date.  I think everyone’s game has gotten a little laggy, but not to the point of unplayable.  Nvidia just put out a new driver.

Hi @Bellusim

 

Have you also tried repairing the game?

 

Does this issue occur on an specific neighbourhood or lot? Does this always occur or only when performing specific actions?

 

Thank you for your report!

@Bellusim  There seems to be some update failures. Correcting the updates may fix the issue. Is the laptop getting hot? It is possible (needs to be checked) the temperature may be getting so hot that the computer slows down to protect itself. The cooling systems in laptops are not the greatest and tend to get clogged after time.
