Very bad lag in Isla Paradiso all of a sudden

I've been playing my family, consisting of two married adults and their toddler girl. They live in Isla Paradiso, in the small blue house opposite Rebecca's Café. This is very strange because all of a sudden I've been getting very bad lag. I've played this family since the adults were young adults minus their child, and up until now it lags for about five seconds before restarting, and it happens regularly. I'm seriously considering starting a new game, but it's a huge shame because I've had so much happen with this saved game, like lots of promotions and then the child and building up their house. I tried deleting the notorious Scott family and their houseboat with no luck. There is no way I'm installing mods to fix this. Is this temporary? It was playing smoothly earlier today, and it didn't start as soon as I loaded my game, it was like after half an hour it started. Should I try resetAllSims or whatever the cheat is to see if one of the ignorant NPCs had got stuck? I did install a game on my computer earlier today, but it was only Bejeweled 3, a small game. Any suggestions anyone, I'd be very grateful, because I know this problem has come up everywhere and it probably becomes tedious for you to read about someone complaining about the same problem you've heard a billions times already. Thank you.

Also what are your computer specs?
Sorry, I tried to fix your problem, but I couldn't.

there's all these thumbnails of stuff from the store that you don't need unless you like to use the in-game store feature, I usually just buy my store items from the site so I deleted them and it made a world of difference in my game
oh and they regenerate each time you go in-game so you have to delete them before or after you go in-game
Hope it helps you out
The lag ist mostly caused by the families in the premade houseboats and in houses with many stilts (Amigos, Medina). Let some of them move into empty houses on the main island.
Icatcha
Scott
Los Amigos
Medina
If it still lags, then remove those houses as well:
The Romantic
The Prince
Just delete those houses and move sims living in them somewhere else. Or just delete the sims as well.
I hope this helped.

> I had the same problem and I solved it. All you ned to do is go to edit town and delete some houses. You need to delete houses of the households below:
