Constant momentary freezing. Stupid BV? Stupid computer? Or something else?
pioupiou:
I have a big lag at the exact moment the sim who is playing collects the pieces to put them in the chess table.
It goes like that :
Sim is playing. Sims stops playing (autonomously or because I cancel the action).
Sim takes the pieces in hand and lift the table thing.
Then, bam !! lag, that last between 2 to 5 five real-time seconds. During lag everything is freezed, time not moving, and the sound (voices, sound effects etc...) are stop and start (like an old disk with a scratch). Then suddenly sim finally put the pieces in the table and everything is back to normal.
It does the same thing when a second sim joins an already playing sim, that then put the pieces in the table to take them back out and start a new game. It does exactly as discribed previously.
It doesn't matter if the playing sim is playable or NPC, the size of the lot doesn't matter, it does it on community lot as well as home lot or dorm....
I have never experienced this before BV....

Water lots are extremely terrible for lag, yes. I have an anti-lag which fixes this, but it's sorta hamhanded in its approach, and also, Fat Gwilly People haven't asked.
Please explain the 'hamhanded' before I get on my knees and beg Gwill to jump up and down.
MissDoh:
What I personally notice is sims seems to be trying to fish threw the floors which is kind of impossible and instead of looking for a usuable spot (there are not many on that lot to start with), they will stomp, scream and try over and over again to fish at the same silly spot instead of getting any knowledge and stop and find the usuable spot, all this is causing a huge lag.
I ended up totally removing the pond on that specific lot but unfortunately, I cannot on the witch hut lot since it is a special lot.
I asked fat gwilly people to release it twice with no luck, I am joining you in this request Emma jump as high as you can. :P
It is a must fix that should have been release at least one month ago.
As for the lagging problem, since I install the patch it did reduce the lag for no reasons (not the fishing one though) problem a lot.

I've noticed that BV is not nearly as tolerant about my amount of CC as Seasons was, at least for me. I don't know if other people have noticed. Much more loading time and a good deal more lag, it's just fine without the custom, Seasons had the same amount in and it wasn't nearly this bad.

Music stutter is RAM overload. BV seems to exceed the critical chunk that can fit in RAMs, and thus wit CC load, it may stutter. Lot stutter is caused by numerous causes. What do the lots you lag on look like? Do you allow your sims free will, or do you rule with a 42-pound, allegedly portable fist? Are any visitors present?
The lots have been varied, from a huge beach lot with lot view enabled, to a 2x2 lot with lot view disabled and no beaches anywhere in the neighborhood. There was no difference in the amount of freezing. That's what I don't understand. If it was due to an overload, wouldn't the bigger lots suffer more?
Visitors/walk-bys don't seem to make much difference.

Probably all your CC crap. That's probably part of your thrashing right there.
Still freezes with no CC at all. The CC (which I admit I have a lot of) does not increase the freezing.

Have you ensured that auto patch is not enabled on your game? Have you fire walled BV?
I had massive pause lag from BV even after bypassing the launcher, I fire walled it and it stopped. No idea if it was SecuRom exactly or whether it was something with BV. I read somewhere that Securom sends a message to ea if ou are running an illegal copy, no idea if any of that is actually true, I just know that BV was on my log a few times from trying to get to the net.
Okay, I looked, and besides the "Auto login to sims2.com, I didn't see anything. Is there a separate place for auto patch that I need to disable?
