Simulation Lag/Save Broken?

My game has been pretty laggy lately. I had about 8000 CC and i now have reduced it to 3000 something. It is still the same. One thing i have noticed though is that my recent save says “My saved game 21,846”. I have never had that many saves and i’m probably not even close to 100 saves. I only have 5 saves right now too. I think it may be a mod but I really don’t know at this point.

  • @VeeBee31 When you're not sure it's a mod, it's time to do a "vanilla" test: Drag the Mods folder to the desktop, delete the file called localthumbcache, open the game to test, and exit without saving. This will show you if your lag is related to CC.

    But note that there's a lot of causes of lag. It might be that you've got big lots with lots of interactable objects. It might be having too many script mods (over about 250 of them). It might be duplicate mod/CC files. It might be more Sims in the game than your computer can handle. It might be higher graphics settings than your computer can handle. It might be all of the above.
