Sims 2 Legacy on and off Lag

Been playing Sims 2 legacy for a few hours and everything was running fine, went to a community lot with a sim that owned the business, went back home and since the sim has been home I get constant on off lag only on my home lot and my computer sounds like its working harder. I can take my sim to any other location and the game runs fine but as soon as I get back to this sims home I get on off lag. Have gone into other families to see if they lag after going to the same lot but they all appear to be fine.

    I have been experiencing the exact same problem with my first Sim to own a business on a community lot. For me the lag is consistent tough and nothing seems to fix it not even the new update. I tried to move the household and put it back to the same lot (which I had moved a tiny bit). Game ran fine for about one Sim-day and then it lagged like crazy again and I didn't even visit my Sim's business on the community lot this time. If I take him there or anywhere else the game runs fine as well. It also loads super quickly - even after the lag occurred (no comparison to back in the day waiting minutes for a lot or neighborhood to load). My computer doesn't sound like it's working harder though.

    I tested going to community lots with other sims and it worked fine. No lag. Same with businesses at home, also no lag.

    I'm so sad because I was really looking forward to play TS2 again like back in the good old days. Hopefully it'll get fixed soon. I really wanted to try out the Build A City Challenge :(

  • I have the exact same issue. I used boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true, and it opened console error messages saying there's a problem with controller business remote (seems to be on infinite loop).

    I hope it helps and this will be fixed soon :) Opening a business was really THE thing I waited to do and still can't 😭

    I forgot to precise that I tried to sell the business, but the freezes keep going on after that.
