We also suggest looking at using some of the mods provided by NRaaS Industries. The following external links are recommended for general problems with The Sims 3: A catastrophic failure may well be due to a game bug, corrupt cache or script files, it might be caused by other custom content you've installed, or be broken by a newly released game patch. Please note ALL worlds are prone to break at some point, including the ones that ship with the game. It is always possible that a problem or two has slipped through, hopefully these are trivial, but if you do find something serious please let us know: The worlds you'll find here have been tested thoroughly but worlds are very complex items. The fewer there are of these, the lower the chance of Sims becoming stuck (and fewer stuck Sims) therefore hopefully less game lag.

NPC Sims can get stuck in elevators and subways, which is why they too are listed in the information provided. This causes the game to lag, and will worsen the more Sims are affected. A routing problem means that Sims get stuck and cannot exit their current location until they are reset. The quantities chosen for each group are based on extensive research and feedback other world builders have had from players.Ī world where the majority of these items are marked in orange and red, or just red will probably be unsuitable for computers which are close to or at the minimum system requirements for The Sims 3Įach world is designed to avoid as many potential routing problems as possible. The totals are marked in green, orange or red for low, medium or high.

Higher numbers of spawners, tree clusters, effects and world decor demand more from your computer, and especially your graphics card, than one with few. There may be additional hidden lots which are used for the purposes of decorating the world or even housing some surprise adventures for your Sims. You can also find general and technical information about our worlds here: There are a number of details given about each world to help you decide whether or not you wish to download it.
