Build buy FPS drop

Question

I play sims on a MacBook Air m1 base model. It runs good accept for when sometimes I drop into build buy for a minute it lags then smooths out. But when I go nice into live mode it lags and doesn’t smooth out unless I restart the gsme. Now I know sims 4 isn’t optimized yet for apple silicon but I love the game and I don’t want to give up hope for it to become optimized on AS. I’ve done some bug checking and stuff still doesn’t fix it.&nbsp;

@Bluebellflora Running macOS 12.4Done clearing of L files and tried game repair. Neither of which worked

@Techcraft3r675 What are L files?Can you try a whole new clean game by moving the Sims 4 folder out of the Electronic Arts folder to the desktop then launching the game like new. Test Live mode and build/buy for any lag. How is it? If it is ok then quit the game, move just one of your save files into the newly created Sims 4 &gt; saves folder and then load it up to see if it is lag free.
