Sims 4 Lagging ps4
Since update game is very laggy and people will just stand in place staring into space not doing any of the assigned activities.
@Renegademan17 hi, I'm on Xbox Series X. I've had lagging problems over the years and found ways to help alleviate the problem in my game.
I would check your Sim total in Game Options and check you are not near or over your total number of Sims allowed. If you are, you can move some Sims into Other Households. In Other Households itself, I often clear some random NPCs because the total number can get out of control, especially with adding new content. I usually cull them once a week and I personally choose to keep the total under 100. After adding Cottage Living I had so many NPCs my game ground to a halt.
In your Library, check you don't have loads of saved Sims and Lots that you don't need to keep copies of.
In your played households, clear their inventories, fridges, household inventories. I clear those every time I switch households. If you have many households with a lot of stored items it can cause lagging and crashing. It clutters up up your game. My current Sims use their inventories as normal while I'm playing their household, but I always clear it all before moving on.
I do all of this once a week as a regular game maintenance to stop my game lagging and crashing. I also notice that it is worse on a 64x64 lot. For an occasional lag, I bring up the Game Options and close it down a couple of times and that usually clears the lag for me.
You can also power cycle your console, I'd do that after you've cleared excess storage. If you haven't done that before you will find tips here.
Good luck, hope something here helps.
