Ultra Speed not working

KscSimmer

So just recently, I noticed that the speed isn't working on my game. Primarily when my sim is asleep and/or at work, it will somewhat speed up. But not do the typical max speed it usually does. My sim doesn't have any guests over. Is this because my sim lives in an apartment?

Hello
Have you noticed that it has only started occurring since your sim has been living in an apartment?
Try when it happens to press pause, then wait a few seconds , then press pause again, then try to see if will do ultra speed then.

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. Exit the game and then copy back the "options.ini" 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

Hello @Katlins Welcome to the forums.
Ultra speed isnt working when living in apartments. It doesn’t work during festivals, and some simmers are finding it isn’t working at other times when living in apartments also. You may like to post feedback on this AHQ EA thread.

Try moving your sim to a home in another world, and see if that helps the issue.
