This is a companion post with what information has been posted in our
FAQ sectionHere are some suggested tips to help with lag for the SV2020 save files.
It's been suggested to delete bar lots or professional bar objects, elevators and subways.
That's great info, but what if you're a new player that isn't very familiar with Sunset Valley or these particular save files. This is where we've got you covered. lol We share photos and addresses of where the bar lots and subways are so they are easily found.
Along with deleting most of the bar lots or professional bar objects, we delete the subways, and the Royal Paradise Hotel, as it is a big cause of lag in the save files due to it being a highly detailed lot. For us it makes a big difference!!
Another help with lag tip: It's been suggested to remove some households if desired. Some players have deleted some or all of the households that were added to these saves from the player-made families to the families added from the different expansions. Check
here to see who was added.
Also checking what mods you have installed, as those can cause some lag as well. Specially if you have for example Nraas Story Progression and a lot of it's add-ons. Big mods that have add-ons are known to cause lag in the game.
The more content (CC and Sims 3 Store Content) added to the game will add considerable lag to the game. It's a good idea to check that too.
We can't promise this will fully fix the lag, but it should help and allow for a better gameplay experience.
** Save a copy of the save file before editing, just in case you change your mind.Also, Nraas has a great article full of tips for better game performance. Read more
