C Drive Almost Full, Suggestions for Clearing Up Space?
So, I literally have less than 10GB left on my C Drive, and I don't have anything else on it other than The Sims 4, LOL. I probably only have about half the packs right now. I'm thinking about deleting some saves and also going through some of my cc to see if there's stuff on there that I don't use. Any other suggestions? .
The Sims 3 is unplayable....
I recently came back to The Sims 3, but unfortunately I keep running into constant issues. The game keeps freezing, and even when it launches, I get this message: "It looks like you have installed a game modification that is not compatible with your current version of The Sims 3." I just reinstalled everything with all DLCs, and I can’t even click OK or close the error — it just gets stuck there. Please fix the game and update it for modern hardware. It’s ridiculous that over the years you’ve managed to break the game this badly — and the EA app as well. We paid for this, and IT DOES NOT WORK!!!!! (P.S.: I have NO mods installed at all, nothing. Everything used to work fine before. Specs: i7-9700K / RTX 2080 Ti)
Keyboard stops working while playing Sims 4
The keyboard on my Yoga 7 2-in-1 laptop stops working after ~5-10 minutes of gameplay in The Sims 4. The entire keyboard goes down, not just specific keys. My only solution right now is to close the game, shut the computer down, and restart everything. I have my in-game overlays disabled for both EA and Steam. I have no mods or CC installed. I play in windowed mode. I've deleted the files from my cache folder. I've repaired the game. My computer systems are up to date. I've run virus scans to ensure I'm not harboring any corrupt software. I've tried every recommendation I've seen posted and I still have this issue. What can I do to resolve this? Thank you!
Stuck at 85% repair, and game breaks after closing
So I have two issues that are happening simultaneously. Currently, I'm trying to repair my game and it keeps getting stuck at 85%. The something went wrong error pops up, and it cycles back to the start of the repair. I've tried the app recovery/restart app multiple times already, and I've even factory reset my laptop. It worked for about an hourish yesterday, with Mods, but I noticed that some of the items (DLC items, not CC) weren't showing up properly. They appeared in the catalog with a white and red X box. It keeps saying the client Delta build 8/0? error (both, 8 and 0) I've tried emptying out my Mods folder, reinstalling both EA and the game, and deleting the clientDB file. Idk what else to do so...

Playing Sims 4 with mods on external hard drive 2026
Hi! I have never been on a forum before so I apologize for all the things I do wrong. I want to find out how the best way to play Sims 4 through an external hard drive works. Everything I can find is still using origin and players are saying it’s different. Can someone please tell me the correct hard drive to buy and how to actually do it? Thank you!
Avoid Sims 3 damaging my pc? (Mac)
Hi all, I've read on other threads that the optimisation, outdated settings, unrestricted FPS, etc of Sims 3 could cause damage to your pc over time. My last 2 laptops both ended up with the same problems with the battery and connectivity and the Sims 3 was the only heavy app I used so I want to do everything I can to protect my laptop this time I saw posts about restricting the FPS but I couldn't find any way to do it on Mac/Macbook. If anyone has any advice on doing this, and the best things to do/download/etc to optimise the game and avoid any problems I'd appreciate it 🙂
Sims 3 won't open as well as the launcher itself?
I purchased Sims 3 from the EA app a few hours ago along with almost every single expansion and add-on available to me, but when I try to play from the EA app, it won't launch. The EA app minimizes for a second and then reopens? Nothing is different. There's no Sims 3 file in my Electronic Arts folder, so I know it's not even launching, but I don't know what to do! I uninstalled/reinstalled, repaired game files, uninstalled it and reinstalled it on a different drive, and restarted my PC. Any suggestions are appreciated!Stuck in L2 and R2 grab on pc
so i have played over 50 hours already without having any major issue that wont let me play. but one day i was playing end mid mission my character start grabbing his board on both sides without wanting to let go. at first i thought my controller was just broken so i tried different one. after plugging it in and restarting the game fully because guys still haven't made a main menu with is pretty annoying. i opened the game so see it work normally then less then a minute later it happens again so i tried installing it tru the ea app thinking it was maybe to do with the steam controller software. witch is didn't because it happend there too. so at this point i have just uninstalled the game because i just cant play it unless i restart the game 50 times and pray it works witch till now has not worked so ive just uninstalled but please look into this because ive not seen u guys mention it once in the bug report in updates and iam sure im not the only one having this issue
