Why is my sims 3 so slow?

Why did my Sims 3 game start going really slow?

  • I have The Sims 3, and today it just started going really slow.... Like it would take my Sims 7-8 minutes to do anything or even begin doing something! I checked my ram and I have 4 GB, so I know it's not that. I recently downloaded some hair for the sims and a few shirts but that is all so could that be doing it? They were all .package files.... Anyone think they can help?

  • Answer:

    Uninstalling the game is completely unnecessary. I have a gaming computer (alienware) and my game was still slow haha. Packages do screw up your game and you should get rid of them all, and then put them back. My game was suuuper laggy and froze like every 3 seconds and once i did this, it was running sooo smooth. OR there could be a particular one that suddenly caused your game to be slower for whatever reason. So think about what the last mods or packages were that you put in. You should consider which ones are worth keeping, and just reinstall ones that really improve your game. That's the trick with cc, some of it really screws with your game and its always a risk, especially with packages. So just consider that, try to keep packages to a minimum and stick with mostly simpacks, ESPECIALLY cuz its only hair. Stay away from peggyzone cuz every hair is package. Try TSR or anubis360.blogspot.com for some amazing hairs and clothes and stuff that are sim packs. Also, check your game settings, if you have the sims detail and town detail on high, that messes up game performance as well. Goodluck
