    Ultra Speed now works while Festivals are in progress. Some conspiracy can be said about Festivals wanting Simmers to enjoy them in all their glory… at a normal speed at every speed, but these are just conjectures… yes.

    Fixed in Patch 1.68.154/ 1.33

    If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.

    Patch notes explicitly mention festivals as being fixed so if you still have issues in apartments, create a new thread

    use this thread if you have pets: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-CD-No-Ultra-Speed-While-Pets-are-on-lot/m-p/6548391#M56140

I'm having exactly the same issue.

I've moved apartments and districts and it's the same problem.

Night and at work, the super ultra speed looks like the time is wirring past, but often it's not actually moving at all, if I pause it or press play, it often jumps back by an hour or so - the sleep need (or whatever was going up) also jumps back in line with the time which can make sleep take forever - and work.

During the day, the super ultra speed doesn't seem to go any faster than fast forward which is only slightly faster than normal play - so skills take forever to increase.

This seems to happen whether super ultra speed has been triggered automatically or i have chosen it.

The game is becoming unplayable. I've had to turn on cheats (which I was trying to avoid) so that I can avoid having to sleep - however, it takes the fun out of it, especially as ANY action that I want to finish quickly takes 5 x longer than it should. It's almost like attempting to play the game on the slowest setting.

Nothing to do with festivals.

No CC or Mods installed.

Happens on all save games.

Fresh install of base game and expansion at the weekend.

Computer running much higher spec than required.

PLEASE HELP

This is my exact problem. Thanks for stating it in your way.

The ultra speed has been doing better recently as I started a new save but sometimes it screw s up. Right now I live in the Fashion distrcit where the apartment trait is "need fixing" and before I lived in the one next door

    I’m having the exact same problem, no matter what world I’m in or what game I’m playing. I have many save files on the go at once. I play on the Xbox one as well so can’t do some of the steps above but it’s really frustrating.
