Delphy's Dashboard on Mac

[alishadarling]

Hi guys! I usually just search other people's questions to fix my problems instead of writing my own, but no one else seems to be having this exact problem, so I figured I would ask. I have a Macbook Pro running on OS X version 10.9.5 right now and I'm trying to download Delphy's Dashboard to find any bad CC my game might have. I know for sure something is slowing it down (my computer is barely a year old and I really don't do much on it besides write papers for school and play The Sims) but I've cleared out the cache and all that, so I know for sure it's the CC. My game noticeably lags (not anything dramatic, but enough to annoy me) and pauses for about a second every time before I click on a Sim. The startup for the game itself also takes way longer than before. So anyway, I looked up tutorials to get Delphy's Dashboard on a Mac, I've downloaded Mono and went to the Terminal and typed in the correct console commands. After pressing enter, it seems that Delphy's Dashboard opens for a second before quickly closing and refusing to open again. It's extremely annoying as I, more than anything, want to remove all the bad CC from my game. Any thoughts? Maybe I'm using the wrong Mono program or something? I don't know...

Thanks in advance!

Hi Alishadarling,

I'm not a mac user, and I don't know anything about Delphy's Dashboard. But something that may help is to take all your custom content out, and put it back piece by piece to see which ones are bad.

If you find that you're really wanting to use Delphy's Dashboard, you may want to try asking about it via ModtheSims. They maybe the best help.

However, I might have some tips that may help too.
