Sims 3 Lag--High End PC (Somewhat Fixed)

Okay. I have a computer with a high end graphics card and midrange CPU. Now, I know that there is lag with ts3 but this it is just bad. My settings in TS3 are Medium-High and I have Overwatch and Master Controller with no CC. I have patch 1.67 with all EPs and SPs. Can anyone help me. This is my Dxdiag: http://pastebin.com/vuY7wcaV

BTW I use radeonpro for fps limiting and vsync.

  • I updated the drivers to 15.xx and changed the vsync to dynamic in radeonpro. I get much smoother framerate.

    It isn't 100 percent but it is really close.
  • if it's close to 100% that about as good as it gets LOL I dont think this game could ever be 100%

  • I have a helpful possible fix for you. Check out the Manual Version section on this document I created: https://goo.gl/tsfkM2
  • Hi, I know I'm late but I'm desperate.

    Hi, I've never posted before but I'm thinking so much my brain hurts. If anyone of you could help me it would mean a lot.
    I just bought a Razer Blade 15'' Advanced 2019.

    SPECS:

    144Hz
    16GB RAM
    516 GB ssd
    NIVIDA GeForce RTX 2080 Max-Q
    Intel Core i7-8750H

    Basically I've got an awesome laptop but can't play the sims 3 as good as I should be able to. I've tried a bunch of games that runs extremely smoothly but the sims 3 just won't work as well as it should. I installed the base game and all of my expansion packs and stuff packs (I have all of them) and the game worked perfectly with no lag at all. I put some CC in my mods folder and now I drop frames more than I should. It's not that I need to clean out my game since it is just two days old.

    I also want to add my FPS can drop to 5-17 when scrolling wround or zooming out. I know my game could give more FPS since it reaches to 140 when I'm still.

    Also my loading screens and saving takes forever compared to a girl on youtube/twitch with worse Specs and a lot more GB of CC

    I gave it more RAM and my boyfriend is going to help me get the game to find my graphics card tomorrow. I've lowered the options to medium on almost everything but I can play every other game on the highest setting. I always start my game with NIVIDA cortex.

    Could someone help me out?
