@SimmerGeorge I never found that to be largely true of 2, think I had it on at least 2 machines and I remember saying well I'm loading a downtown lot, better make me a sandwich. LOL, I laugh about it now but it was a little frustrating back then. The graphics were so good, but if lots had too many items on it you were just over-taxing it.lol. I admit I still (item hoard, I don't like my sims getting bored lol) or is it just me lol. Fake lots, any lots in particular you feel are that way? You didn't name one so I wasn't sure which ones you meant.
