TOOL: 3Booter, the Incooperative Game Kicker
Writin_Reg:
Well I discovered the 3 booter and limiter did not work when I moved them to the new stuff pack - but I see you have updated the 3 booter - so where do I put them this time? I assume it should be the sp seeing we have to use that disk to start the game, or is that wrong?
I had to move them into WA to work with that xp and that worked fine - but the stuff pack doesn't. I just got the stuff pack tonight, but it did not take long for my card to start running a bit warmer than I liked it and my framerate went sky high several times.
Panastasia:
Writin_Reg - I downloaded the latest version of 3booter.exe from the first post here (looks like it was last modified on February 3) and put it in the HELS folder. I then deleted the old version from my WA folder and then moved the FPS_limiter, HookHelper, Limiter_D3D9 and Resource.cfg files from my WA folder to my HELS folder. Then I deleted the old desktop shortcut to 3booter and made a new one from the new file. Then I ran the game and my fps stays around 30, like it should.
Edit: Don't forget to move your Mods folder (if you have one) from the WA folder to the HELS folder so the Resource.cfg file can find it.
J. M. Pescado:
You don't have to move your mods folder. Mine is in the same place it has been since the original base game. The officially recommended solution is that it stays there.
Panastasia:
The only reason I moved the Mods folder was because a lot of the store/custom content wasn't showing up in game until I moved it. I am a techtard, however, so listen to Pescado, as correlation does not always equal causation.
Edit: I moved the Mods folder and Resource.cfg file back to The Sims 3 folder, and everything works fine.

I wanted to make a sort of request/suggestion on the plausibility of FPSlimter usage with CAW. More specifically, with edit town in-game mode to cap the frame rate. Is it possible at all to mod CAW to cap the FPS when it loads TS3 with a sort of CAW booter? Editing the map in-game for even a short time (30 minutes) causes my computer's temperatures to rise and graphical lag because the FPS is back to 93+.
I agree with that 1000% ...I just loaded my CAW tool, and as soon as I went to "edit in game" mode, my ATI could be heard from miles away...I quickly exited and my screen had lovely greenish flickering colors all over it...Is there any way we can make CAW not to bypass fps limiter?
Someone would have expected the latest patch would fix something so importand, but hey it's EA after all >:(
Anyway can I please alaborate on the above question about the updated booter and limiter? We just move the files to the newest EP/SP folder each time, or we just extract in the base game folder and just leave it there? Just to make sure my GC doesn't blow up...Yes i'm blonde- bare with me
