@puzzlezaddict Could you tell me which part of GCC should I disable? Or just disable the full app? I bought this game on steam and I use the nvidia control panel to limit the framerate to 180fps I also have the vsyn on
@maxlaton The question is whether you're actually only seeing 180 fps in-game. Please make sure and let me know.
If you get another crash, 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 your computer, go through the Task Manager's background processes list shutting down any service that doesn't absolutely need to be running, for example anything from MSI Afterburner to RGB software might still be enabled. If you accidentally kill a critical process and it doesn't restart on its own, just reboot your computer again.
Don't open anything other than Sims 3 while testing, not even a browser window. You don't need to open Steam; just launch the game from TS3W.exe (with the W), which is here by default:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Sims 3\Game\Bin
@puzzlezaddict @Thanks for your reply I'll do some further test and post the result here as soon as I have the time! And sorry for my late reply,being quite busy these days.
@puzzlezaddict It seems that I have a new problem,I just can't start a new game,do you know what maybe be the cause of it?
@maxlaton What happens when you try to start a new save? If you're getting a "serious error" message, this may be OneDrive-related. In that case, the first question is where your Documents directory, and therefore the Sims 3 user folder, is located. Please search in Windows for Command Prompt, open it, enter this command:
reg query "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" /v "Personal"
and paste the result here. Please also let me know whether OneDrive is running on this computer, and if not, whether you've removed it or changed any other settings.
If you're getting a different error, please post a screenshot; if you get no error at all, describe what you see when you try to play.
@puzzlezaddict It is really weird that the game fix itself after I remove the sim3 document folder the 2nd time. The first time I delete it,nothing changes,but the second time that i delete it and redownload all the shop items------it is just fixed. Really thanks you for your patience and good advice,I can never fix it myself without them. Thanks again!
