Re: Time freezing & Resetting

I've had this bug for some time on all my saves & it's *always* homework that freezes time. I have testingcheats on & reset homework books until I find the culprit & everyone goes back to normal. I've also noted that it's usually (though not always) a high school homework book that's to blame. Unfortunately, this led to the demise of a study club (because it constantly froze time) but otherwise no big issues.

Also, I've noticed that I'm fine if one sim is doing homework but two or more causes issues.

I'd love to post my computer info & all that but other than playing Sims & checking Facebook I'm fairly illiterate (& lazy) so that won't happen. My rig is not top of the line but not quite a potato. It runs Sims 4 really smoothly with nice graphics & other than the occasional glitch it works great. So I guess I'm in the 'mid range to higher end' category that seems effected by time freeze. I'll try some of the tips posted; I just kinda searched this to see if it was being worked on or whatever & add a 'Me Too' to the thread. 😉

    Cleared cache files according to the instructions on Carl's site, and it didn't help. Once I went into the game, I did the resetsim command for one of my affected family members and everything began working normally again.

    I'm going to close this thread.

    Not because I think its fixed but because it has become an thread of multiple things that all need addressing separately.

    I have opened this thread a while ago: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/Performance-Issues-Compiled-List-of-Threads/m-p/5095251 and I would ask everyone that is still plagued by either of those issues, to open their own thread in the general section of the forum.

    Please provide the info asked in the appropriate posts in your own thread and I will then add your thread to that list.

    It's way easier to keep up with the individual progress this way as these issues probably don't have one cause as such but are a problem of multiple things. 

    I think it's a better way to get the info that the devs need to address these problems.
