Super speed doesn't work

Hi there,

I've googled this for ages and have heard some similar issues but nothing exactly the same. For years now my third speed doesn't function properly when everyone is asleep or at work. It just continues to cycle through the same 10 minutes or so on the clock instead of progressing through the day. My only option is to always have someone awake or only use the second speed which is so slow when there's no one to play. I have tried repairing the game and no luck. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    HI @RandyMandy27 

    Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.
