This issue now seems to be fixed in the 1.68.154.1220 November 2020 patch.
Thanks all for confirming it now seems to be fixed. If you start experiencing issues again please post 🙂
So are there any updates on this? I was having some luck using Sims 3 camera but alas, it's freezing up again. No rhyme or reason to it either. Yesterday I played for a few hours with no issues, today, within the first hour.
This is incredibly frustrating and it seems many people on Mac are reporting similar issues.
There are currently three separate threads for the Vega issues:
2018 and 2019 15" MacBook Pros (Vega 16 or 20)
2017 iMac Pros (Vega 56 or Vega 64)
2019 iMacs (Vega 20 or Vega 48)
This is the iMac one. The reason they are split at the moment is because they are three separate model Macs. We may merge them all into one but it's good to have them separated for clarification currently. Not all of these model Macs have Vega GPUs either as it was a point of sale upgrade.
The most helpful thing people can do is provide their full system info and upload their Config.log file and and lastCrash reports.
Some users have reported that lowering their in-game graphics options to rock bottom helps stop the freezing and crashing.
Thanks, I provided my system specs on this thread. I unfortunately don’t have any crash reports because it never actually crashes I have to force shut down or quit.
Will get my config file when I’m able to later. What will that show?
Thanks. Attaching the file here.
Just to recap for my specs:
iMac (Retina 4K, 21.5-inch, 2019)
3 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i5
16 GB 2667 MHz DDR4
Radeon Pro Vega 20 4 GB
And to recap, I repaired game (no change), reinstalled (no change), took all mods out (no change).
