Hi, so ever since i have updated my sims 4 game it has become jittery and crashing. I have also updated my sims 4 mods and cc that has needed an update and also installed [adult mod name removed] as I wanted to try it...not a problem also. As I had tried to go onto my save file, the live mode became jittery and kept skipping, when my sim went to bed and I pressed 3x speed my game didn't respond and became frozen. I did some research and thought it was a mod conflict. Took out the conflicting mod (it was the mod that conflicts with sleep cuddle) to see if it was fine, and it was all good for a few minutes although still jittery and then it crashed. Today I have taken all my mods out and cc, I have then attempted to free up storage and what not I also put my mods and cc back in, it hasn't crashed but it is laggy and takes a long time to load up the menu and it is still jittery....anyone else with this problem.? [edited to remove adult mod]

Hi @FatPikachew6 If you play with no mods do you get the same issue? Drag the whole folder to the destop and delete localthumbcache. (Try to remember to not save, or back up your Saves too)

Hi, thank you for responding. It still happens when I don't have any mods or cc enabled..it has something to do with the game I suppose?

@luthienrising I have seen on reddit about disabling reconnect with the gallery?

Does it happen only when you use high speed? And does it happen in a new save?

@luthienrising it does usually 9/10 times happen when it is using high speed, although prior to this i thought it was a mod conflict (it wasnt i have taken the conflicting mod out now). but yes, it happens in my save and when using high speed and other speeds.

Sims 4 becomes jittery and then doesnt respond.

@luthienrising If this solution did work, is there a way to create a new save file with my existing one? As I don't want to stop playing that save?

Sometiimes loading an earlier version of a save will work. If you want to reconstruct a save, more or less, I've done that before. What I did - and note here that I play rotationally, so this was pretty involved - was save all the households and lots that I wanted to my Library so they would keep their increased skills, careers, and within-household relationships. I also wrote down the clubs and interhousehold relationships that mattered most to me. Then I imported the households and lots into the new save. After that, I used clubs to help SIms "meet" each other again (you can then delete those clubs-of-convenience) and UI Cheats Extension to re-create relationship levels.
