I'm having an issue where I can't get my sim to watch tv while on the treadmill. I remember when I first played sims 4 they were able to do that. I have a treadmill in the house and a TV within eyesight. The treadmill is against the wall and the tv is mounted on the wall above it, is that too close?
Hello @ElijahKT
Try moving the treadmill away from the wall and see if that helps. Try testing by placing it in various positions in the room.
I've also had an issue where the pizza man never comes. I've only ever tried to hire him with a child sim, don't know if that has anything to do with it. It's always been in the early morning of the day.

Hello @ElijahKT
Try ordering at another time of the day and see if that helps the issue.
Ordering a different variety of pizza can also help.
Ok, well that explains why I couldn't post a new thread. Didn't know I was new though, lol, as I've been a member since day one. In any event, I'm having a wierd issue with my sims eating. For some reason they take FOREVER to eat, to the point that eating is pretty much all they ahve time to do. It seriously just took my sim 4 game-hours to eat a ham sandwich, clocked from the time he sat down to the time the timing bar on the icon was full. Both my sims do it, as well as npc sims throughout the world. Most of the time there very little eating animation, about one "bite" taken about every 45 game minutes; mostly they just sit there and blink and such. It doesn't make a difference if they are at home or away, alone or with company. Doesn't matter what they are eating, quality, time of day, sitting or standing, talking or not. They just eat VERY slowly.
The only content I have installed is the base game and get to work, if it matters. Any help here would be hot.

Hello @sayler04
I am sorry that you are having this issue.
Sometimes having a large amount of items in the sims inventories and household inventory can cause issues. Try removing some of the items from the inventories and see if that helps.
Repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.
Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated.
Start a new game and test to see if the issue is in that new save game.
Exit the game and then copy back the "options.ini" or "options" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders from the desktop sims 4 folder.
Try lowering your graphics settings and see if that helps.
If your sims live in San Myshuno, try moving them to another world
Try turning off origin in-game and see if that helps. To do that, go,to Game Library in Origin . Right click on The Sims 4 picture. Click on “Game Properties”. Then untick the box that enables origin in-game
Try switching back to 32 bit mode and see if that helps. To do that ,
Go to games library in Origin . Right click on The Sims 4 picture.
Click on “Game Properties”. Click on Advanced Launch options.
Change the “When launching this Game” setting to “The Sims 4 32-bit”
If you are finding lagging in other parts of your game also, and it continues after doing the above things, Could you please post your DxDiag info here.
To gather a DXDIAG on your computer, do this :
Press and hold the Windows key and the letter R on your keyboard
You will see a Run box in the lower-left corner of your screen
Type dxdiag in the text field
Click OK
Click the Save All Information button, found on the bottom of the DXDIAG report
Then copy and paste the information from where you saved it, to pastebin https://pastebin.com

Hello! Today I tried to go into my game and noticed a bunch of problems involving stuff going missing. I go into the menu and it looks a lot different than how it would normally look. There is no "open last save" or "start a new game" option... just a play button. So I just go into my CAS and it turns out that ALL of my cc has disappeared, even though I have mods enabled... I go into my gallery and all of my households are gone as well. So basically, it restarted? I tried to work it out by taking my mods and tray out of the folder multiple times and I also disabled and enabled mods, but it doesn't do anything :/ Any help? Thanks!

Does the insane trait make a maid not do anything? I hired a maid who happens to have the insane trait and when he arrives he just stands in the living room staring at the wall thinking about my female Sim in the house.. xD

Sorry for the double post but I can't seem to edit existing posts, to add onto it, when he does finally move, he'll usually go pick up a dirty dish and move it to a different location in the house, instead of putting it in the dishwasher or sinks.

I tried to do the second option first and unfortunately, it did not work. I press "load game" and it only has the sim I used to test it. For the 1st one, I am slightly confused. I do have onedrive, and I think it does lead to the mods folder, but i'm not sure on how to fix it. Could you help me out? Thanks! :)

Hello @ElijahKT
New members can't edit posts. It would be best to fire the maid and hire a new one. The new maid may not have this issue.

Hello @imsobored82
Try moving your Documents -electronic arts -sims 4 folder to the desktop.
Then go to One Drive and find your Sims 4 folder there. Copy the Sims 4 folder and place it in the Documents-electronic arts folder where you moved the other one from.
You then need to unlink One Drive . This link explains how to do that https://support.office.com/en-US/article/Turn-off-or-uninstall-OneDrive-f32a17ce-3336-40fe-9c38-6efb09f944b0
Then start the game and see if that helps the issues.

Alright, i'll try that! I'll get back to you once I am done :) Thanks!
Also, unlinking to Onedrive won't do anything to your files, right?
