This user has the following games installed:

Sims 3, World Adventures, Ambitions, Late Night, Generations, Pets, Showtime, Supernatural, Seasons, University Life, Island Paradise, Into the Future
Default Extreme lag at the start of the game
I have TS3 on Origin. The major problem is that my game starts lagging immediately after starting a new game. I can't reach the end of the week without the lag freezing the game. The game is set to use the Nvidia graphics card and the framerate is locked at 60. The framerate drops to 15-16 FPS when it's raining or snowing. Memories are disabled. I have all of Nraas mods and 6.04 GB of mods and 10.0 GB worth of stuff in .sims3pack format. The main thing is that I used to have a much older computer that ran Sims 3 better despite being much less powerful. I just got this laptop last year and the old one was eight years old when I retired it. I NEVER had these problems on my old laptop. Is there any way to improve the lag?

Specs

Windows 10 64-bit
16b GB RAM
Ryzen 9 4900HS 3.00 GHz
Integrated graphics card and Nvidia 2600 with MaxQ Design

I just fixed that, but I'm still getting massive frame drops and my sims are just standing still when I tell them to do something. (Routing error?)

Did you follow the instruction in step 6? If done correctly, it will not have the override message. This most likely means you didn't fix the trigger and your system still believes your GPU does not have sufficient VRAM.


I somehow completely missed that. Just fixed it. It's almost 10pm where I am and I have a meeting tomorrow morning, so I can't test it tonight. Thanks for helping!
