Sorry it was in so many messages. I'd already got it on my computer as friend was going to look over the file but never got back to me
Your graphic card might not be up to IP. See this: http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:TS3_System_Requirements
Try lowering the settings and update your drivers. As far as I know, Nvidia has newer ones than may.
- Thanks. I will try the driver update. I did try lowering the settings before in game but I hadn't tried it since I reset the game following the steps on this forum. I'll try it tonight when I get home and post the results
on that list, i found my Graphics card but i couldn't find the IP expansion so i don't know if it is compatible but as I said previous to the patch IP worked brilliantly on my computer
IP is very demanding. The list ony goes up to seasons and the card is marked red for that already.
It's a user made list and not above all doubt but chances are that IP doesn't work well. Every patch adds new code and can raise the requirement a bit.
Did you try to unchart all islands though ?
I haven't tried the unchart all islands,i've updated my driver and i've turned my options down a bit but i found a page for system requirements for IP and my processor and graphics seem to be ok for it
should it make any difference that I'm using the Steam versions? purely because when I had the Sims 2, Apartment Life developed a virus and I could no longer use that disc or the new copy I bought
Try the unchartallislands cheat. Not sure what's it called exactly but I'm sure you'll find it on google.
Don't think that Steam makes a difference.
Did we try to check if your graphic card is actually recognized by the game ?
http://sims3.crinrict.com/en/2013/06/getting-the-game-to-recognize-your-card.htmlno we didn't but that looks complicated...i'm willing to try it though
Check on the file first if it's recognized. That's not very complicated and you'll just be checking a file, not change anything.
right it came up with found 1, matched 1
Did you try the uncharting of the island ? You will need to google the exact cheat.
- I've got the cheat code and I tried it on my new game and it seemed ok for about two game days and it mainly froze during the night
Not sure what else to suggest.
You might wanna open a thread over at thesims3.com and see if other people can help you out. We pretty much exhausted all I got and maybe a new person has fresh ideas.
EIther link this thread or post your DxDiag again over there.
Sorry I coudn't help you.
- I appreciate your help and at least its not lagging as much as it was so im very grateful for all your help
