      My loading screens take forever. That's why I don't even try to travel that much.
      Also most of the time when (even when I don't) I tell my Sims to do something, they just stand around stuck. Takes about 2 to 3 mins before they start moving again.

      @@ShinelleDixon ahhh, that's truly so annoying! I wish we had open worlds, it would've been much easier this way. In regards to those stuck Sims, have you tried resetting them?

    • @Darielle
      @Darielle  3 года назад +1

      You can try to reset your Sim as well as your Sim's needs. Just press ctrl+shift+c (at the same time), type in the command bar 'testingcheats true', enter and then press once again ctrl+shift+c to close your command bar. Now, shift click on your Sim > reset object & then click on 'cheat needs' (select the options 'make happy' & 'enable needs decay'). And now your Sims should be fine! Let me know if this helps! 🤗

      Hi!! Do we also have enough RAM?
      If we use Windows, then we can press ctrl alt del at the same time on our keyboard > go to task manager and see how much ram our game uses! (this must be done with ts4 open)
      If most of our RAM is used (like 90% or more), we might need to uninstall some other apps that we no longer use or upgrade our ram (adding another slot of ram, only if our computer does support it, so we need to check the model's specifications online and see if the computer supports more ram than we already have)

    My game has been having issues with larger houses to be honest and even though i really want all the major skill building on one lot maybe it is just not feasible to expect as it is just waaaay toouch stuff. Oh well maybe i will just get a frw things and leave out large skill building items and maybe just build lots for those?

    • @Darielle
      @Darielle  Год назад +2

      Yes I do agree!! Both options are great, we can try to make our houses a bit smaller (& delete those animated objects if we do have ones!) & still have those skill building objects!
      If we have lots of cc items in the house, we can also try to limit those & delete some
      Or as you said, having separate lots for skill building objects & houses is something we can try!
      I found that disabling the edge smoothing option in the graphics game options makes the game A LOT smoother so we can try that as well!
      Also having lots of free space on our computer is key! (We can try to transfer some files to external hdd,ssd, flash drive, another laptop in order to have more free space)

    • @Darielle
      @Darielle  3 года назад +3

      Here are some tips that may help:
      First off, try taking out all of your script mods from your Mods folder and check if your game works fine. If so, you probably need to download the updated versions for those and install them.
      If that did not work, you can try to reset your EA folder and then place only updated versions for your mods, as shown in here: ruclips.net/video/-pCFvTcqQnQ/видео.html
      Keep in mind that you should not delete the old EA folder in order to copy all of your saves, tray, screenshots & cc and paste those into your newly generated EA folder.
      The other alternative would be scanning your Mods folder by using this BE mod & deleting your files that show up in your report list (here's a helpful tutorial: ruclips.net/video/WncYhAAtKcM/видео.html)
      Last but not least, if you haven't tried this already, there's also the 50/50 method that allows you to determine the problematic cc: ruclips.net/video/kp_fdyXQCfE/видео.html

    My problem is that I don't have a powerful computer... I don't want to go through the hassle of moving the playing games to a hard drive so I put everything else than my Sims on a hard drive yet it still so slow it's so annoying I literally clean out cache and local thumb thingy everytime I play... do you have any more tips for me?
