    It took me a while as the files are so well hidden, but if anybody struggled to find any answers online like I did, this is how I managed it!

    ~/library/Containers/com.aspyr.sims2.appstore/Data/Library/Application Support/Aspyr/The Sims 2/Neighborhoods

    And there I just copy and pasted my (now 11 years old!) neighbourhood files, which have been working perfectly 🙂

You should be able to copy over your saves from your previous game. Try that and let us know if it works 🙂

      @bluesatinsashes , have you applied the Graphics Rule Maker to update the graphics card info in the game?

      Funnily enough about a year ago my game developed a glitch and the game crashed every time a particular sim died, plus it started taking over 45 mins to load anything. I haven't played it since as it's barely playable and I'm too sentimental to start again haha.

      Has the same thing happened to you?
