Constant lag after last update
I've been playing the sims on this computer for the past two years, and it's always run smooth as silk without a single issue. However, a couple of days after the last update my game just started lag...

Hello @alternatealice ,
It is possible that the game runs slowly because you have a lot of content that needs to be loaded. Some games might seem more intense and all that, though Sims 4 with many expansions and packs can slow down your computer while all the content that you own is loaded.
Have you tried installing only the base game with maybe only one-two expansions/stuff packs? If it runs perfectly without everything, then all the content was the cause. Do let me know what happens after this so we can see what we can do further :D
Also, I'd recommend performing a Clean boot (guide here) and opening only Sims 4 (with all the expansions). Closing all the extra processes should help us see whether the game is still misbehaving or not :D. You can try this first (since you already have the game fully installed), and then try the step above.
I hope it's not too much info that we've provided :D. We'll be waiting for your reply ^_^!
I wish you a lovely week ahead! 🐱
I've tried all of the suggestions above in both responses including clean booting, and have also had my more tech savvy brother try and fix the issue of which he was at a complete loss. My game continues to lag and be unplayable. Is there any other possible solutions??? I cannot put into words how much I miss playing sims.
After looking through the forums I saw some other people providing a dxdiag so here's mine if it helps. (I'm sorry, I'm not really tech savvy)
- There's been a few reports of the game lagging with active internet connection
Could turn of the connection (not just going offline in Origin) and see if that makes a difference ?Unfortunately didn't work ☹️
