Re: sims 3 64 bit & metal keeps crashing?
Well, my game is crashing nearly every 15 minutes after I launch it...And I don't know what to do. I already tried to repair it via Origin but that doesn't help. The mac crash error says: Crashed...

@alkuch Before you go to all the trouble of uninstalling and reinstalling, you may want to check your computer's internal temperatures. Among the causes of what you describe is overheating, and trying to play when the computer is already hot, like, say, immediately after a crash, will only give the heat issue a head start.
One comprehensive tool you can try is iStat, developed by Bjango. While it's a paid app, it does offer a 14-day free trial. Another useful tool is Macs Fan Control, by CrystalIDEA, which has a free version; although it doesn't read as many sensors as iStat, it should be sufficient for this purpose.
@puzzlezaddict I do have an app which controls my temperature, and at the moment (while I am playing) it is about 62-66 degrees Celsius
@alkuch What temperature reading is that? I'm interested in CPU temps: the individual cores, the iGPU, the die, the package, anything like that. A proximity sensor might give a significantly lower reading, and the temps of other components are probably not relevant.
