Sims keep freezing In-Game!

Hi there,

Recently my sims have been freezing in-game from time to time, but i is becoming every 4 or 5 in-game hours now.

There will be queues of actions, the time will still run, and their moods will change, but the sims are stood still and won't do anything.

This usually happens to the entire family in the game at the same time.

I've tried pausing and un-pausing, going on build mode, but either they come unstuck themselves after a while of fastforwarding or i have to quit the game and go back on it.

This is really frustrating and has only began recently after i downloaded the patch and also origin did some updates. I have only downloaded a few houeses from the gallery into my game so i cant see it being because of that.

Any ideas?

Thanks
