Aaargh! Suddenly my game is slow After having recently installed TS2U I sent my oldest teen from one of my families off to Uni to see what it was like, and after playing him through until the beginning of his Junior year, I decided to get his younger sister into Uni as well. So I go back to the original house and spend most of my time getting the sisters skills up, and then last night suddenly the game is extremely slow! After saving and closing, Windows was complaining about virtual memory. I went and fixed that (its now on a min of 1GB) but no luck .... aargh! Did some searching through the forums today and have a list of things to try tonight, wish me luck... I just hope that I don't have to stop playing this family ... they were my first family I created when I got TS2...
My game was like that just last night. I had my teen invite another boy teen over, hoping to get them aquainted and love each other. He comes over (the sister, mom, and dad were also there with the teen) and after he gets there, everything is really slow. I'd never seen it like that before. So I restarted and they were still slow. So I move them out, bulldoze that house, build another one. I haven't moved them in yet, but maybe the new house will work. Maybe try moving them out?
Well I briefly tried a few things last night and it seems like its just the one lot that is very slow. My other neighbourhoods and houses all work great. I realise now that I installed TS2U without checking on all my families and this particular one had a maid still on the lot and he got stuck there, so I ended up deleting him with the move_objects cheat.... So now my plan is to move the family out (and lose all my paintings...) and rebuild them a new house. And this family started as legacy thing, but I got too addicted to some of J.M.Pescado's "hacks" to bother carrying on with those rules. Thankfully shortly before this weirdness started my elder male sim (called Star) had just got a 50,000 research grant chance card so at least I can build a nice house now...
