Unlimited Sims Game Option - Is It Laggy?

It means that the limit of Sims with NPCs and Sims on all lots is unlimited, but limit on each lot is still only 20 without the help of mods. It is a bit more laggy the more Sims you add to lots because more Sims means more memory.

I play with unlimited sims checked, and I have had no issues at all. I suggest you just try for yourself and see if you have lag issues when playing, if you do, then you know that you need to keep it set to 200, if you don't then have a field day!

I used to have a limit (200?), then I had to surpass that limit when adding cats and dogs. I intended to go back to 200 by time, but with more worlds added I had to simply ignore the sims count... I probably have 350 now - on a low-end computer, and I don't notice much of a difference.

In fact, this game has surprisingly little lag. I never care about fps, but it feels okay even on a low end with many packs and also a huge number of files in my mods folder. I found that what will cause lag eventually, is filling my hard drive. The game obviously runs better when there is about 4GB free driver space. So, my best investment is to delete or move to USB pins, say screenshots and other stuff on my computer that I don't really need. Upping the sims count had little to no impact in my case.
