Re: [FIXED] Sims keep moving after paused

Product: The Sims 4
Platform: Windows
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? I'll say 90% of the time
What is your current game version number? 1.88.213.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Everything up to and including the Décor To The Max kit.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play in 3x speed and then pause the game.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sims carry on moving
What do you expect to see? Not moving
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now, I've removed them
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Patch 1.88

Here is a video of the problem - it's never been an issue prior to this update for me. Now it's a constant thing and it's really creepy, lol.

I have all the DLC available for the game, and have tried with and without mods/cc.

Also including my DxDiag.

I am not experiencing the other lag issues as reported in the other thread.

    I can confirm

    been seeing this for a little while now.. 

    to see the issue faster have 2 or more sims talking to each other then paused in the middle of it. their heads will keep turning very slowly like a clock whining down.

    my save game is old like 1 1/2 years old,  so I built a new game folder to see if that would clear it up// nope same thing

    Ok, here's my video clip. I'm on normal speed except at the very start while waiting for the 3rd sim to enter the conversation, then I slow it down to normal when they begin talking. It only started happening  after yesterday's patch. I've played this household for a long time and never noticed it prior to this. This is one my regular save files/main households. I'm not sure if I'm doing this right but here's a dropbox link:
