@Jo27030727 Yes, you can do that, or you can open the saves folder and copy one or more of the files inside. You can sort your saves by modified date, or just copy over all of them if it's easier.
@puzzlezaddict I just tried it and it still keeps freezing
@Jo27030727 Okay, so the game runs fine without your old saves, but freezes when you add the saves back in and try to play one? How large are your save files? Can you play a different household within the same save without issues? You don't have to save your progress, but it's a useful test.
@puzzlezaddict it seems to work fine on other saves, just the one world that doesn't work properly
@Jo27030727 How large, in KB or MB, is the save file that doesn't run properly? Do you see the same freezing if you load a different household?
@puzzlezaddict I'm not sure how to see how big of a file my save is because I don't know how to tell them apart in files lol. i tried out two different households in the same save, one of them I had visit my current families house and the freezing happened for the new household as well. the second house hold was in the same town but not with my current family and it seemed to be fine, i'm not sure if it was just going through a good patch though and wasn't freezing at that moment.
@Jo27030727 You can sort the saves by date modified and match the timestamps with the last time you saved your progress in a given save. If the other households run fine though, except for when you load the home lot of your main household, the issue is probably your main sims or their house.
You can experiment a bit, for example moving the sims to a different house. Or you can play a different household for a few sim-hours, save, quit, reload, and go back to your main household to see whether it runs better. If you start by using "save as" to rename the save, you'll have a new copy you can mess with while your original copy remains intact, so you don't have to worry about the consequences of what you're doing.
hey i know this post is a little older but i recently have been having these issues. i loaded the game without my mods folder and my game still freezes every few seconds. right when i load up my game it freezes and i know its not my mods since i tested that. i also even tried updating my graphics driver and still having the issue. is there anything i can do to fix it?
