Thankyou for the help! I have two questions.......if its not my sim (I am only in control of maybe only two), could it still be a stuck sim in the community that I am playing? (I think that is what you had said, but I wanted to make sure to clarify).
Also, if it IS the dedicated memory, what can be done about it? I have already talked to a guy about putting in another video card, but he said it can't be done. At most, he had suggested getting a new computer--which is NOT happening because this is a brand new computer--or getting another fan to keep my computer from heating up......he said it MIGHT help. Although I am not sure how much a new fan would cost and not even sure how well that would work.
I will try, next time I am playing the game, to reset the sim and the town. HOPEFULLY that is it.
Thank you for all your help!!
- Stuck Sims can be any sim in your neighborhood. The game tries to simulate the other Sims and if they are stuck, it can affect the whole game.
- Depends if your computer gets really hot. A cooling pad or just cleaning out the fans might have the same effect than getting a new fan. A new fan won't make your game better though.
Thankyou again for all your help!! I will try to reset the sim and the town and see if that works. I hope that this is what it is because if its the fact that I dont have any dedicated memory because that would **bleep** me off. My Dad got this amazing gaming computer and I love it, but it shouldnt be THIS hard to find a Sim-worthy computer nor should you have to buy the most expensive laptop out there in order to run it either. EA seriously needs to revamp their whole game and take into account that some people just dont have dedicated memory on their computers. Im surprised that they haven't had any angry people knocking down their doors concerning this to be honest.
