@simbuildsam @FemmieFrodo and @spookyorca Have you tried playing in a clean Sims 3 folder? If not, please do so now, still on the lowest graphics settings and in windowed mode (cmd-enter to switch).

Hello,
- Operating System: MacOs Monterey 12.0.1
- Mac model: Macbook Air M1, 2020
- Processor: Apple M1
- Memory (RAM): 8 GB
- Display Type: Built-In Retina LCD
- Are you running any antivirus? NO
- What Expansion and Stuff Packs do you have installed? Every expansion/stuff pack available on Origin.
- Do you use CC/Mods? NO
My game does not crash but keeps freezing - everything freezes (NOT the Mac, just the game) for a few seconds every few seconds, then comes back but as you can imagine it is pretty frustrating. Do you have any idea for a solution?
Thank you!

@iremakakca What world(s) are you playing in, and does the same thing happen in Sunset Valley? Do you play with mods or custom content? It's fine if you do; it just needs to be taken into account.
- 4 years ago@puzzlezaddict Hey, I am in Islo Paradiso, I haven’t tried in Sunset Valley, I don’t have any mods or custom content. There are only some things downloaded from the Sims 3 store - like some other worlds, some CAS stuff etc. All from the Sims 3 store though.
I realized this sometimes stops, I tried lowering all the graphic/display options like you suggested someone on here - I am now on medium with all of those I think, I am not sure if that’s the thing that helps so it sometimes doesn’t happen.
Also, does this happen to other people, or have you come across this: When e.g. you are in a festival ground, Sim doing smth - a lot of the lots around are just color blocks - NO detail, and this doesn’t have to do with any graphic options because I played with those to see if it changes.
Thank you btw, sorry it is a long answer!
