  • Yes on both monitors the game is set to the max of the each monitor. I have windows 8.1 I think that might be it
  • I have tested the problem on two different monitors one in 1080p and the other in 1024 x 768 and they both have the choppy graphics
  • I tired the first one and the second wasn't need because my card is already supported. Here is a screenshot of the problem You can see the letters are choppy and it's just the letters. I know my graphics can look better I just don't how to do it.
  • Hi I saw some of your specs on your build. I just built my own computer to mainly play the sims 3 on and sims 4 when it comes out. My suggestion would be if you can wait and save up some more money you will at least need $600 min and 800 to get a good machine. 400 dallors will play the game but just barely. This guy named…
  • Just for anyone new looking here SLI is supported in the new patches though I would recommend a single card like instead of two gtx 760 maybe go for a gtx 770 it's cheaper then two 760's. Also if you need extra power for a more power game like BF3 you can SLI it. But if you have a small budget one 760 with the right cpu…
  • Well itsaprilXD thats your opinion which is fine but just be more open to other opinions. Speak to the editor he says it would be a great article. And the article not about some "minor" glitches which you can ask anyone they make the game unplayable. There is no game to play if you have these glitches. And as far as…
  • Well yes i'm very frustrated but i'm not gonna apologize for what i feel. I'm not the type of person to just sit back and let this stuff go unfixed you might get my frustration when you hear my story. I got a macbook pro and the sims 3 games for a dream come true gift. which i got because i'm sick. I'm not saying this for…
  • I updated to 1.39 and it's horrible it's making me mad and more mad! I'm gonna get this problem out there and EA is gonna know that this a MAJOR PROBLEM AND IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED! I have written into a game magazine and i'm in touch with the editor. We have been talking back and fourth and he thinks that a article can be…
  • Well i'm glad yours is working but if you look around like the Exception Raised error forums this is a huge problem that makes the game unplayable! If your game plays good then great but i'm speaking for mac users who have exception raised errors and random crash playing with the same specs and same things as a pc player…
  • I use to have that before installed Showtime but i don't have problems with hair now. I know 4 years is too long. I really hope EA crashes and burnes because of this problem. 4 years! You can't fix a problem with a game you made in 4 years i'm try to think about something that can get the company attention as a whole so…
  • Ok i'm back but with a sad update unfortunately all the old tricks on here no longer work to help the problem the new patch just borked everything when i installed there was no way possible to play the game so it looks like we are on our own. I really wish there was a way to get EA attention about this problem so it would…
  • Everytime i try to play my game i get more and more mad! and sad i just feel upset that the greatest gift i ever got doesn't work. I mean put yourself in my postion you have been sick since your 12 and your 15 and someone tells you, u can get a dreams come true wish. You get the chance to get anything you want! Well being…

  • Ok macs are great! but not for gaming i love my 2010 macbook pro it runs great no virus and no problems so i would always recommend a mac. But for sims 3 and mac thats a whole other thing. Right now most macs are having errors and crashes running the game. It's not the mac it's the way ea has programed the game. And with…

  • i have this problem too don't reinstall anything i reinstalled pets hoping it would help but it didn't so don't uninstall i warn you!
  • Has anyone downloaded the new patch it doesn't say anything about macs or this problem in the notes which makes me mad but i'm try it to see if it helps may help with crashes and the lag that came with the last patch. cross your fingers! :oops:
  • I'm curious what did they tell you because i've been talking to them at least once for twice a month more if i'm really frustrated. I talked to them today and still thay haven't been able to help me and i don't even have lion my mbp is a 2010
  • Ok i'm back with new tips! Boy i still can't believe EA hasn't fixed this yet!! makes me so mad! I was just trying to create a sim in bridgeport which i rarely do because i use the builder island which i find helps me go through the CAS process without crashing or freezes. Ok #2 after every crash or freeze delete your…

  • My game crashed again today i'm gonna post my screenshots of it. *LOOK CLOSELY AT THE BOTTOM IN CAS WHERE THE SHOE THUMBNAIL APPEARS DISTORTED . This also shows you what to do when you have this problem
  • http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/534900.page use the last thing i said about changing the folders it will fix it or generate a new folder and move your folders you need over to the new EA folder.

  • For right now the goal is to try to minimize this problem. Ok i have some things to try out along with all the other things you have to do like clearing out caches every new game and so one. I got this tip from tumblr every time your game crashes name your Electronic Arts to _lectronic Arts than run the game. Than quit and…
