I'd play my household for a bit, then the sims would be stuck sleeping or doing something. The clock also freezes at a certain time when trying to speedup through the night. I can't save or do anything but use task manager to close it when it happens.

Could you please also post your specs ?
Here, thank you
Does your game run DX9 or DX11 ? You can find that next to the version number on the main menu.
Please also open the file called config.log (in your documents folder) and check if this part
=== Graphics device info ===
has your Nvidia card or your Intel chip listed.
For me its also since the last EP, when I disable life and death I can play my game just fine (or as fine as sims gets). I also dont seem to run into this problem after creating a new save file but I want to play my legacy save ):
Could you also post your specs ?
Here you go.
Try updating your graphics drivers. They are very old.
tried it, unfortunately didnt fix it, the problem is also only there when the life and death pack is enabled.
Unfortunately, freezing can have many causes so few more questions.
- Are you using mods/cc ?
- Do you have the freezing on any saves or just a specific one ?
- If it's just a specific one, how big is the save file ?
- Have you tested multiple households on the save ?
- Could you post a video of what exactly you are seeing ?
They issue was in only one specific save, and happened first with mods but also with mods disabled.
I played a new save and this did not have the issue so I tried to play my old save to record a video but it seems that since the last update I do not get this issue anymore
