I don't hav any mods or cc, the first game i tried wass in sunset valley.
I did the windows thing, but is still laggy, and It seems that the scroll wheel on my mouse in game is not working properly because I use it to rotate the camera and it moves very slowly or barely moves at all. I have to use the buttons instead for it to work, but overall, is still laggy.
@SHADYN-72 Did playing while offline not help at all? Try playing in windowed mode and let me know whether it helps. I'm not saying you need to keep playing that way, only that it's a useful test.
If that doesn't make a difference, please try playing in a clean boot:
The one service to leave enabled is the EABackgroundService, which the EA App needs in order to run. Disable the rest as described.
When you reboot, go through the Task Manager's background services list shutting down anything that doesn't absolutely need to be running, for example some Lenovo software or a utility like MSI Afterburner might still be active when it shouldn't be. If you accidentally kill the wrong process and it doesn't restart on its own, just reboot your computer again. Please test while offline again, and if everything is fine, you can go back online while still in the clean boot and test again.
Sorry for the late reply.
i did the boot thing, but it seems to not change anything, im playing with window mode cause if i make it to full screen my game crashes.
The game is still going slow and laggy
Okay!! i found the problem.
the problem was that i was playing just with one cpu in the sims, cause i supposed it didnt work if i put them all, but actually it worked perfectly now.!
@SHADYN-72 Right, the workaround of only allowing Sims 3 to use one CPU core only needs to be applied for the first few seconds after launch, then you can undo the setting. As you've seen, giving the game access to only one core as you're playing is not great for performance.
