@elimaximoff Please move your entire Sims 3 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop. When you open the launcher, a clean folder will spawn with no content. Don't add anything to it yet; just see whether you can get far enough to start a new save. Let me know either way.
If you still get the white screen, please also let me know whether you have iCloud Drive enabled.
I moved the folder to desktop and it didn't show the white screen but when I got to the edit neighborhood screen it started bugging REALLY bad like flashing. I've retried many times but it keeps happening. And yeah I have iCloud Drive enabled.
@elimaximoff Please open the new Sims 3 folder and delete options.ini. When you load the game, a new one will spawn. At the Main Menu, please turn all the graphics settings to the minimum, then quit to desktop before loading a save. Let me know whether a(nother) new save looks like the one in your screenshot.
I was able to make a save and no it wasn't flashing anymore but it was very laggy.
I also noticed that when I tried logging in (Member login) it kept telling me that the email & password was invalid which is not true because I can login everywhere else. I searched it up and a lot of ppl were saying to clear the IE cache? But I don't use internet explorer and I can't install it because I have a mac.
@elimaximoff What world are you playing in, and what packs do you have installed? How long did you play, and did it ever stop lagging?
Please also list the specs of your Mac: everything under About This Mac except for the serial number.
As for signing in, one common reason it doesn't work is if you have a special character in your password, like an & or !. But it wouldn't cause the other game issues.
