    this is something EA could fix in a single day but they so are cheap that they wont

    • @AshrielBackup
      @AshrielBackup 2 года назад +14

      No, they are not cheap, cause the sims 3 is a 2009 game that was only able to run on old graphics cards. Then until 2013, they stopped adding updates to newer graphics cards.

    It’s saying I don’t have permission to save in this location 😭 edit: I fixed it! If anyone else has this problem here’s the fix. “Modify Folder Permissions
    In the Properties window, switch to the Security tab. Select your username from the list and click on Edit to modify folder permissions. Tick the Allow checkbox next to Full control. Hit Apply followed by OK.”

    • @LgrKary
      @LgrKary 18 дней назад

      I had this problem so I figured it out so when you go to into device config right click on the folder and then click on properties when you are in properties click on security and then you should see a box that says edit. Click on it and allow all those options below that says full control, modify and then click on apply and then OK, I think it should work.

    Para los que tienen un PC de bajos y no tan bajos recursos, les recomiendo que desactiven el "sonido de ambiente".... No se porqué, pero no veo que lo mencionen prácticamente y, por lo menos para mí, ha sido algo clave en el rendimiento del juego.
    PD: Sigan el video paso a paso que funciona perfecto.
