@luthienrising Hey, I think that might have actually helped! My game only crashed once while running an exceptions check, which is much better. Thanks for that! However, I'm struggling with extreme game lag. When in Live mode and un-paused, it's so slow to the point where it doesn't play through some interactions/animations, but skips to the next one. Also, the camera doesn't move smoothly at all in Live Mode. Could that all be for the same reasons--scripts? I just realized I have over 55K package files in my game (and now down to about 180 scripts). Yikes. However, my computer specs, I thought, are pretty good to be able to handle it. Can the game itself only handle so big a Mods folder? Guess I'm learning something new about this game...
@AkennArt It absolutely can be for the same reason. All these extra things the game is tracking can slow it down. But consider also factors like how many interactions you're lining up on how many Sims at once and how many interactable objects are on a lot. I've also been seeing a recent issue of the game suddenly creating dozens of new townies, and people have said deleting them helps with some lag. Turning online social features off in Options has also helped some people who were trying to play offline.
@luthienrising The game creates an UNNECESSARY amount of townies lol and they all look ridiculous! I wish the game would take into account the sims we make and not generate so many, for sake of performance. I will be more diligent about deleting them and also try playing with the Options to see if that helps eliminate some of the lag. And going forward create my own builds more often so I can control the number of interactable items on each lot. Thanks again!
