Lags in Islo Paradiso
Problem The world that comes with Island Paradise, Islo Paradiso, is very laggy. I don’t have as many issues in any other world. Cause Islo Paradiso is probably the biggest world from EA and is very heavy on the performance. The world is big and on top of that, it has a whole routable ocean where every bit is accessible. On top of that the world has many routing issues and other problems that can lead to lags on the most high-end PCs. Workarounds Next to the general tips you can find here: Lags & Intermittent Freezes, there are a few…

Routing Issues in the Resort Hobart’s Hideout
Problem The maintenance staff at Hobart’s Hideaway is stomping and complaining with no end. Cause The resort has multiple routing issues but the most annoying are the bug spawners which are located underground. Since the bugs then spawn underground too, it’s hard for the staff to get there and complain. Solution Move the spawners so that they are above ground (or delete them if you don’t want any roaches). Be aware that the spawners only seem to show if the roaches are active. Also if you can’t go to the required level, build a small pool and it should work.…

Game freezes when checking into resort
Problem Whenever my Sim wants to check into a resort, the game freezes and all I can do is to kill the game. Cause This problem is caused by a self-employed Sim (gardener, painter, angler, ..) The diving career is affected by this too If you check in with another Sim that also has a self-employed career, the freeze will also happen. Solution Don’t check in into a resort with those Sims or change their career. They can be unemployed. Mods that help with the issue Overwatch V101 and higher has a fix for the issue

In Preparation for Island Paradise
Island Paradise is almost upon us, so time for me to make this post. I do recommend to backup all your stuff, most importantly the DCCache folder and the Saves folder. Most of the things stated here: What to do before patching do still apply. Installing the EP will reset all your Sims so for example not being in a vacation town orat the time, reduces the changes of game corruption. If you want to be on the safe side, also remove your mods/custom content. Start a new game after the installation. Get a feeling for what’s new. If you want to continue…
