Resolved - It's lagging
AxelVal:
Just recently my game began to have a serious lag time, but only in one neighborhood. It's my second custom neighborhod, and the first one only lags due to the 'stalker syndrome' which is easily cured. I only play in these two towns, and not the Maxis ones.
This neighborhood is used for my "Without Divine Intervention" story, so there is only one family. It is also affecting my story as I can only stand to be in there for a short amount of time before it drives me insane. What could cause a lag time in this town but not my other?
Micco:
Do you have a lot of decorations? The more eye candy you have the slower it gets.
AxelVal:
I'm pretty (99.9%) sure that I have little/no windows and I know that I have no decorations put up.
The only thing I can think of is that it would be due to the house size. I have five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a backyard with a pool, and a huge living/dining/kitchen.
Micco:
By decorations I mean trees, signs, water, towers, balloons, airplanes, etc in your neighborhood. How many buildings in your hood? Is all that visible from inside the lot? If it is, that can really slow things down.
Your house isn't doing it; if you turn off (or at least down) the visibility of what's in the hood and that still doesn't help I'm not sure what your problem could be. System specs?
AxelVal:
I don't about the system, but my other neighborhood is full of houses.
This one has maybe three other houses, all empty so I can delete them if I have to, and no decorations in the town. It was made specifically for my story and I didn't feel like bogging it down with stuff for no reason. I have everything I can on the graphics turned to 'low' or 'off'.
