Lagging 4 no reason, nothing helps
Sims 3 used to run great with all x-packs, overwatch+mastercontroller, for months. Then, two days ago, the game started lagging like crazy: every few seconds, both sims and time freeze for a minute, then they move like 2 frames, only to freeze again for up to five minutes. Happens in all towns. All other games run fine.
I've:
Moved to new towns.
Played logged out.
Deleted all cache files.
Decrapified.
Killed backg processes.
Did resetsim *
Did everything mentioned on forums here and elsewhere.
Still freezing like *.
WTF? Anyone?
It can't be a PC issue; I can run any other 2 to 3 games at once without lagging.
PC specs:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz
