TOOL: 3Booter, the Incooperative Game Kicker
thesaint:
I am rather new to sims 3 and have been on the hunt for a few answers when I came upon this thread of a similar issue...
My game and system:
Game: Sims 3 base, WA, HLS, AM, LN, OL, GEN
System: Custom x58 gaming build, Core i7 950 quad, 12Gb DDR3 SDRAM, 2Gb Radeon HD 6950, Catalyst 12.1, Win 7-64
I do have many mods and packages installed mostly clothes, furn, and decorations. Cleaned out bad and blacklisted cc to the best of my ability.
The issue I am experiencing is a number of FPS and GPU usage spikes. Frequently, while playing, the GPU usage drops to 0% when technically should be working, then it starts and moves to around 50% to 60%, then suddenly back to 0%. Temps however never exceed 55C despite FPS spiking at around 600, probably due to factory custom GPU cooling (MSI Twin Frozr III).
The game does tend to lag a bit and these spikes occur even while running with no cc at all.
The game remains playable, albeit barely, but the spikes are irritating and I cannot figure out why the GPU usage hits 0%. FPS limiter seems to have no effect.
I am an avid gamer on this PC (Elderscrolls games, SWToR, COH, WoT, AION, MSFlightSim, etc) and the Sims 3 is the only game I play that has this issue.
I wonder if any of you have this issue as well, or if this issue is related to the issues being discussed on this thread.
Danke!
(Postscript--discovered another EA gamer at evga.com forums that is experiencing a similar issue with battlefield 3 which leads me to believe this may be an EA coding issue and if so, not much can be done unfortunately. Nevertheless, the issue continues.....)

Hello , I have a question about this tool .
So I been ussing it for a while before Show time was out , made a big diffrance in my game !
My question is now with the last patch 1.33 + showtime is it safe to use?
do I need to wait for a new version that is good to go with show time?
Just been getting tons of bugs with showtime which are probably not related but still woul'd love to know answer about it.

Did you ever need to update it before? If you're still getting the 30 FPS then it's working as intended.
