Hi,
I just wanted to report that I’m experiencing the same issue. Whenever my Sims use the TV or the computer, my game starts to lag really badly and becomes almost unplayable.
I’m playing on a Mac M4, and after reading other posts, I realized that several Mac players seem to have the exact same problem. Everything runs fine otherwise, but as soon as the TV or computer is in use, the performance drops significantly.
So you’re definitely not alone — I’m having the same issue here as well.
Such a frustrating issue that hasn't been fixed for months. It wasn't happening until an update in 2025, I just don't know which one as I stopped playing the game for a while until July.
Hoping EA will answer our prayers at some point.
