The sims 3 for mac#
This thread has been the main source of information about 64-Bit release for Mac players, but many Windows users have recently expressed concern about a Windows version of the update. The main reason I'm writing this now is the release of The Sims 3 (64-Bit & Metal) for Mac, which has left many Windows users wondering if Windows version is getting the same treatment.

I hope that this helps players shave off at least some lag, so we can all enjoy a more stable Sims 3. There's a lot of different guides, fixes and options scattered around the Internet, I also made one (on Twitter, of all places!), but these forums seem like a logical option, especially since many players come here anyway to look for help with issues that they experience. However, another reocurring feature is lag, freezing and generally unstable performance. We all love The Sims 3 the gameplay, the customization, the amount of content is so massive that everyone has something to do. PLEASE, BACK UP EVERYTHING THAT YOU MODIFY, SO YOU CAN ROLL BACK IN CASE AN ISSUE POPS UP! And sure, the incident would have been a whole lot less creepy if it hadn't been in the form of a haunted doll figure.īut The Sims has always leaned into the paranormal, and with Halloween rapidly approaching, it feels appropriate to remember one of the biggest, creepiest modding scandals of the game - and remember to always double check your mods.PLEASE NOTE THAT, IN THIS POST, I WILL GO OVER FIXES THAT WORKED FOR ME AND LET ME PLAY THE SIMS 3 WITH LITTLE TO NO LAG! I OWN ALL PACKS AND ALMOST ALL STORE CONTENT, ALONG WITH A DECENT AMOUNT OF CC/MODS, AND MY GAME ALMOST NEVER LAGS, EVEN ON HIGH SETTINGS. She states in the video, "An invisible virus that would break the game attaching itself to custom content randomly and you have no control over knowing if you're downloading it or not? I'm not surprised it turned into a little bit of a moral panic."Īs a result of the corrupted doll incident, players became a lot more savvy when it came to the custom content they chose to download. Popular Sims YouTuber Jesse McNamara - known online as Plumbella - recently published a video on the topic as part of her "Entire History Of" series, retelling stories from the early days of The Sims and explaining the lore of the game. Modders and developers alike worked to find a solution, with modder Glitzyangel eventually discovering a way to wipe the doll's existence from the game. There was no escaping it - subsequent downloads of "infected" packages would spread the doll even farther.Įventually, the tide of this corrupted doll became so strong that EA itself had to step in. Any lots or packages uploaded from games that had the doll present would find themselves uploading with the doll attached.

To make matters worse, the file itself was visible neither on the Mods screen nor in the downloads folder for the game.

Weird.- archived account January 18, 2021įrom lag to corrupted save files to game crashes, the doll was inadvertently responsible for countless hours of lost gameplay. Didn't help that the doll LOOKED like a creepy, haunted doll.

Omg just watched some video about some Sims 3 cc doll that somehow got corrupted/made in to a virus and broke a bunch of people's games and couldn't be deleted once it had infected your game.
