Something like IP without the lag

I am trying to find a world with ports and dive spots that is like Island Paradise without all the hair pulling lag involved. Does anyone have any recommendations? 🤬

  • Kcity74​  There's a fixed IP available as well:

    Removing IP Lag | EA Forums - 2055350

    A lot of the fixes aren't necessary on higher-end computers, for example the fog does cause a framerate drop, but you wouldn't notice anything if your theoretical fps was 400 (before you capped it) and it dropped to 250 or so.  In fact, you could get rid of most if not all of the lag by fixing the few lots mentioned in that guide and using this mod to prevent inactive sims from moving their houseboats:

    As far as the avatar goes, it changes to the one you have in the EA App and ea.com every time you login to this forum.  This is apparently by design.

    DivinylsFan​  No other EA-made world has dive lots because those come with Island Paradise, and the other worlds need to be compatible with either the base game or only the expansion they came with.  I also believe Barnacle Bay was released long before IP.
