You can also use this tool to clear caches, which helps make your game run faster. You can quickly remove or disable any problem packages which may be causing slow loading times or crashing etc. The purpose of this tool is to check all of your installed package files in your mods folder for any conflicts (orange), Sims 2 packages (blue) *can cause crashing*, corrupted packages (red) *these can sometimes be the ones that cause the “ blue lots” problem and “monster sims” and duplicate packages (yellow). This is an amazing tool created by Delphy over at ModTheSims. There are instructions on how to use this on the website but if you ever need any help with this please don’t hesitate to ask me. This tool can help give your game a “boost” (pretty self explanatory) It works by disabling unnecessary background applications to help your game run faster and smoother.

Prepare to be overloaded with information…įirst off, Programs and tools you can download.

Please take note that I have only ever played on Windows Vista and Windows 7 - If you’re a Mac user I cannot guarantee these will work the same. I’ve played the Sims for a very long time and since playing the Sims 3 on many different computers and running into (probably) every single error you can have with this game I have found many fixes and have now got my game to a point where it runs smoothly and I rarely (touch wood) have crashes. I have decided to make a big long list of helpful tips and programs I use to help make your game run smoother, prevent crashing and solve crashing issues you may be having!
