Hi,
So i have a macbook pro mid 2014 model that is only about a month old and I'm experiencing slow loading time for the sims.
Like it takes like 20 - 40 secs just to load the main menu and can take 1min plus to load the family.
I have the sims 4 at home on a desktop PC and everything loads super fast, like 20 seconds.
Do you have any suggestion that i could do to speed it up

Not really....
I should list my specs (There not the best to play the game) but i swear it used to be fast once on my mac.
2.6Ghz Core i5
8GB Ram
Intel Iris 1536 MB
By default, the game has enabled retina display resolution or something along those lines.....
I turned it off and it seem fast now
Must have been graphics linked. Thanks for the update and fix
What Mac do you have? How big are your saves and how much CC/Mods do you have?
Does it still happen if you move out your Sims 4 folder from Documents > Electronic Arts and launch a new game?
I have a Retina 5K 27 inch iMac
3.4 GHz Intel core i5
Radeon pro 570 4gb
Ditto my response to Moriarty above yours
Try lowering your resolution in game settings to 1080p. 5k is too high a resolution to be gaming in with your video card . The higher the resolution the better the video card you need for gaming. higher resolution is fine for streaming a movie or computer tasks but not gaming. You game should run smoother if your gaming in a lower resolution and take stress off your video card
How long is it taking? Make sure you have Origin in-game disabled and turn of all the annoying notifications in Origin. Yous should repair the game too and also clear the cache as the last update was a biggie
A minute and a half, is that all? Whilst it’s not seconds it’s really not a ridiculously long time. How large is your save file and if you use CC/Mods, how large is the Mods folder? If you move out your Sims 4 folder from Documents > Electronic Arts to the desktop how long does it then take to load?
the not responding thing is weird though. How about trying in a new user account on your Mac? Maybe something you have running is interfering with it?
