How do you make your big houses playable?
I've asked in the past about what to void of build elements to limit lag on larger lots, so that's not what I'm asking now. I just would like to know how big mansions/castles you actually play without...

I have a large castle on my gallery, it's meant to be a rental and at most I've had 4 sims and some ghosts living there. It runs smoothly in my game, without issues. You could try it out in your game and see if it runs as smoothly for you. I play vanilla though, and it could also be that some of the CC you use is too high poly. Then there is another issue I've noticed with some downloaded houses, even though they are CC free, the builders have crammed too much stuff on the lot with MOO and TOOL. It looks nice in pictures but it's unplayable due to lag and routing issues.
With sims, I think if you want to build large mansions and castles inspired from real life, it's necessary to scale them down and focus on a few essential elements. You also need to scale down on decorations and don't layer objects on top of another, it might look nice in pictures but it adds unnecessary polys to the lot.
