Sims stand still when holding stuff
My game keeps stopping whenever any sim, household or NPC, hold anything in their hand. Most game braking are dishes, they cause the most stopping, but any item a sim holds makes ether them or everyo...

I play on PC and by "stop" I mean all the sims just stay still, not completing any actions and just bob their heads. As soon as I delete the item they're holding everything goes back to normal. It is so frequent and predictable that any time sims stop doing anything I start looking for sims holding something (I noticed that empty plates cause this but not full ones. Glasses make everyone stop no matter if they're full or empty). In bars and nightclubs and such, it is especially frustrating, because everyone is buying drinks. I also have problems with different venue types. At nightclubs (not bars for some reason) everyone keeps pulling those futurecubes out of thin air and using them, even after deleting them. And in university dorms all the furniture keeps disappearing one by one, like if there were kleptomaniacs. These are just few of the problems that came to my mind while I was writing this that I couldn't find answers to.

- @Raborix I don't know if there are any newer graphics drivers for AMD for Win 8.1 but it's worth checking. Yours are from 2014.
Think we haven't talked about mods yet. Are you using mods/cc ?I actually use a lot of mods. I have tested the game with and without them but the problem persists. The game does run a lot more smoothly without mods but removing them doesn't seem to help with this particular issue.
