Sims won't follow commands
I have recently tried playing the Sims 4 after downloading the new packs and updating the game, but every time i give my sims a command, they simply don't move. Or for example, if i click on the sink and select 'wash hands' command, the animation plays but the sim doesn't walk to the sink instead they stand in the same spot as before. I have tried fixing it in so many different ways but nothing has worked so far. If anyone knows a solution for this, it would be much appreciated!Game Crashes in Any Mode
College Football 27 PC – Crash Summary for EA Support Platform: EA App GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Issue: Game crashes on the black-and-white College Football 27 flag load screen when starting any match (Play Now, Dynasty, or Road to Glory). Often shows DirectX error: E_OUTOFMEMORY ("Direct3D could not allocate sufficient memory to complete the call.") GPU listed as NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060, Driver 61742. What happens: I can get into the main menu and navigate modes. When I try to start a game (after selecting teams/uniforms in Play Now or Dynasty, or starting a high school game in Road to Glory), the flag load screen appears, then the game freezes or crashes back to the EA App. This happens in every mode. Troubleshooting steps already tried: Updated NVIDIA drivers (multiple times, including clean installs after Windows updates). Disabled NVIDIA Overlay. Set the game to High Performance in Windows Graphics Settings. Unplugged controller and used keyboard/mouse. Unplugged extra monitor. Lowered all graphics settings to Low (Texture Quality, Cutscenes, etc.), capped FPS at 60, and used Fullscreen. Cleared / disabled NVIDIA shader cache (set to Disabled, then re-enabled to Unlimited/Driver Default). Repaired Visual C++ Redistributables (both x64 and x86). Repaired the game through the EA App. Uninstalled and reinstalled the game (installed on C: drive). Restarted PC multiple times before attempting to load matches. Tried Windows + Ctrl + Shift + B (graphics driver reset) during the flag screen. Closed background programs to free VRAM. Confirmed game is installed on the C: drive. Windows is fully updated (26H2). Result: None of the above fixed the crash. The game still dies on the flag load screen in Play Now, Dynasty, and Road to Glory, frequently with the DirectX E_OUTOFMEMORY error. Request: The game is effectively unplayable. I would like a refund or assistance resolving the persistent match load-screen crash.EA SPORTS™ SKATE. Causes Full PC Shutdowns and Restarts During Gameplay
Platform: PC (Steam) Issue: Critical system crashes and unexpected restarts during gameplay Duration: Over a year Description: I've been playing EA SPORTS SKATE. through Steam for over a year now, with over 150 hours played. First of all, props to the development team for continuing to improve the game with each update and for listening to the player base. I genuinely enjoy the game and hope to see it continue to improve in the future. However, there is one recurring issue that has been seriously affecting my experience: SKATE. repeatedly causes my entire PC to crash and restart during gameplay. My desktop PC has the following specifications: CPU: 12th Gen Intel Core i7-12700F (2.10 GHz) GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (12 GB VRAM) RAM: 64 GB Platform: Steam (PC) Target resolution: 1920 × 1080 (1080p) This hardware should be more than capable of running the game at 1080p. However, while playing SKATE., my PC sometimes appears to experience unusually high power consumption or a sudden system-level failure, eventually shutting down and restarting completely. This is not simply a game crash to the desktop. The entire computer restarts, interrupting everything I am doing. When checking Windows Event Viewer, I consistently encounter the following critical error: Source: Kernel-Power Event ID: 41 Task Category: 63 Message: "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly." This issue has been happening repeatedly for over a year, and it is becoming increasingly frustrating. I have continued playing because I genuinely enjoy the game and appreciate the work being done to improve it, but these repeated full-system crashes make it difficult to enjoy the experience reliably. Expected Behavior: The game should run at 1080p on a system with these specifications without causing the entire PC to shut down or restart unexpectedly. Actual Behavior: During gameplay, my PC experiences a critical failure that results in an unexpected shutdown or restart. Windows Event Viewer subsequently records Kernel-Power Event ID 41. Request: Could the development and technical teams please investigate whether this issue could be related to game optimization, unusually high CPU or GPU loads, power spikes, driver compatibility, or another problem triggered during gameplay? I understand that unexpected system restarts can also be caused by hardware, drivers, power delivery, or system stability issues, so I am not assuming the game is necessarily the sole cause. However, the recurring nature of the problem while playing SKATE. makes it worth investigating. I would appreciate any troubleshooting steps, diagnostic recommendations, or information that could help identify the root cause. I genuinely want to keep playing and supporting the game. Thank you for your continued work on SKATE. and for taking the time to look into this issue.
Stick Issue with Switch Pro Controller
I use Switch Pro Controller with Steam Input enabled. I have no problems with any other games, or even using emulators on Skate 3. But with this game, after pushing, then trying to hold the stick down for popping, the character doesn't react and it basically eats the input. I turned the on-screen display on, it shows that it's registering the input, but it doesn't initiate the readying pop animation, and I basically can't act out of pushing normally. I have to wiggle the stick back and forth at the bottom for it to register then he moves down to the readying animation, or I have to re-center the stick back to neutral then move it back down again. It still mostly functions normally for nollie though. I think switch controllers don't go all the way to 1, if I remember correctly. So when I'm pushing down maybe it's at like 0.85 - 0.9 and that for whatever reason doesn't interrupt the pushing animation Very annoying, basically makes the game unplayable on a Switch Pro Controller, before you ask, yes I've tried BetterJoy, it makes the problem worse.
El estado actual del Juego
Hola a todos. Quiero abrir este hilo para reportar la enorme frustración que estamos sintiendo muchos jugadores con el estado actual del juego. Es incomprensible que se priorice la monetización agresiva por encima de tener un juego que, como mínimo, funcione de manera fluida y estable. Aquí detallo los problemas principales que exigen una solución urgente: 1. Problemas graves de rendimiento y bugs visuales - Efecto "Cámara Lenta": El juego sufre caídas brutales de rendimiento donde la simulación física se ralentiza por completo. Aunque los fotogramas parezcan estables, el skater se mueve a cámara lenta, arruinando el ritmo de cualquier línea o combo. - Input Lag masivo: Hay un retraso inaceptable desde que mueves los sticks del mando hasta que el personaje reacciona. En un juego de skate donde la precisión lo es todo, esto hace que el juego sea directamente injugable. - Inestabilidad de los servidores: Los tirones, el lag de red y las desincronizaciones con otros jugadores en el mundo abierto son constantes, especialmente en zonas concurridas. 2. Sistema de pases abusivo (Skate Pass Premium) - Bloqueo de contenido repetitivo: Es absurdo que tras pagar el pase prémium de una temporada para acceder a zonas como El Estadio, ese acceso expire. Volver a pedir micropagos o forzar el grindeo de pases diarios de 24 horas en la siguiente temporada por el mismo mapa es una falta de respeto al tiempo y al dinero del usuario. - Economía desbalanceada: El juego te empuja a pagar constantemente con dinero real en lugar de premiar de forma justa las horas dedicadas. No tiene sentido gastar un solo céntimo en el Skate Pass Prémium si la experiencia base del juego va fatal. Necesitamos que optimicen el motor del juego, arreglen el netcode de los servidores y revisen las políticas de acceso a los mapas de temporada. ¿Alguien más está sufriendo este combo de lag en cámara lenta y frustración con los pases? Espero que el equipo de desarrollo tome nota de esto pronto.
Controller Support
I had no issues until after the most recent patch. On the home screen, ever time I select an option with the controller, the menu resets--an animation of the EA Sports banner plays, and the menu resets. I am unable to select a game mode because of this reset. I can switch to mouse input and eventually highlight an option, but it does not provide a cursor. Possibly related, in Road to Glory, I am unable to select "Retry Attempt" with a controller; I need to switch to mouse to do so (a cursor is available on this screen). I am using an XBox controller. I have confirmed it is up-to-date and Steam recognizes it; the game responds as expected to the controller as long as no menus are involved.
"There was an error during startup. Please see the log for more details"
Hello, I've already installed the sims 3 in this laptop previously, so I know how the deal is with the installation and what not, but I've never encountered this issue. For reference I play with Steam, and it's the first time this error showed up, it never in the past since I deleted the memory in this laptop for external reasons, so i know for sure it cannot be due really old data corrupting the start. This issue always shows up when I try to open it from Steam, which loads the "TS3W.exe" file, the launcher shows up, and just as it opens, that error reveals itself without leaving me other options but to quit by clicking "ok". If you wonder, I did try to open it from the "TS3.exe" file directly, which turns into this error showing up or the file not opening at all (sorry for the poor picture, I taken it with my phone yesterday while trying to see what was wrong, its on spanish as I usually launch the game with that language, and then I changed it as The Sims 4 tends to sometimes give the issue if the folders are in different language) "Game cannot start. There was an error with the setup of the service (0x0175dcbb)" Please someone help me, I have over 36H on the game so I cannot refund it, those 36H are from the time I was able to run smoothly this game on the very same laptop where this errors are happening, so I know well this game can run here :(Game Continues to Freeze
For a while now throughout the game it will freeze and lag especially during replays of defensive big plays. What will also happen is the cheerleaders and crowd will disappear. I also noticed while checking task manager the disk starts to spike, I wanted to know if anyone also experienced this too. I have tried many things to fix that such as verifying integrity of files, changing graphics settings to low, passing it through exclusions in windows security, upgrading to 32gb of ram. All of these things plus other things recommended in this thread and it’s still having this issue. I’m now posting here to see what else I can try I’ve run out of things to try. Right now I’ve just delt with the crashing and playing on medium-high settings At this point I’m convinced the game is just poorly optimized for pc any recommendations? my specs are: CPU: amd ryzen 5 5600x gpu: geforce rtx5060 8gb ram: 32gb ddr4 Storage: ssd 1 tbCPU Heating to 192-195 F
I'm on the Steam version with a 4080 Super, Ryzen 7700, and 32 GB DDR5, but my CPU skyrockets to 195 degrees while playing at 4k 240Hz. I would try 120Hz or 165Hz, but there is no option. This is the only game that gives me this issue, I even have the graphics turned down, but it makes no difference. I love this game, but I fear playing it will just degrade my hardware. Playing at a lower frame rate makes this game significantly less enjoyable, and 1440p on a 4k panel looks pretty bad.
