Annoying freezing on maps, changing outfits, CAS, etc.

Before the updates for the new expansion started, the game was running great for me. Since the first update, the Del Sol Valley map and some others started to freeze slightly when I hovered over the terrain, also when changing my Sim's outfit, it loads the outfits very slowly, before it was the second one, and in CAS, in tattoos it presents the same freezes, is there a solution? because it is being very annoying that it crashes all the time.

    I have recorded the freezing problems again, it happens with both dx9 and dx11, and I already tried a new game, as soon as I put my unit or others, it starts to freeze videos about freezing game  , I'm tired of this, I've had this problem for more than 1 month that started with the update prior to the expansion

  • TM95Gerardo  Again, does this happen in your existing save with no mods or custom content present?  It's a really important question, and it sounds like you keep loading the save with your mods and cc.

    Well, it's my save with all the mods and cc. but as I said before it didn't happen.

  • TM95Gerardo  My point is, if your main save is affected only when your mods and custom content are present in the Mods folder, then the problem is something in that folder.  The fact that the mods and cc work in other saves isn't relevant.  Since your save works fine without the mods or cc, you'll need to test to figure out which files are causing a problem.  Use the 50/50 method if you have a lot of files to test:

    It was solved a little but now, suddenly the game closes when I want to start with my home unit or when I want to open the CAS.  I didn't put cc or mods, it's very strange that this happens now if I didn't put anything in the mods folder

    I've tried everything and the problem is my saved game, but before it worked normally, because suddenly when loading my home unit the game closes, I didn't have any interaction with the recent expansion

  • TM95Gerardo​  With no mods or cc present, does this save work if you move your sims to a new lot?  Can you load CAS to create new sims, as in, maybe CAS only crashes when you're trying to edit your main ones; or does CAS not work regardless?
