Long Loading Times
Problem It takes forever until my game is loaded Cause In most cases this is due to many or faulty .package files. If you have tons of them, they can slow down your game and the loading times. Also make sure that there isn’t a Sims 2 package file amongst your Sims 3 files. Sometimes it’s hard to tell what game they are for. Long played save games with large houses can result in long loading times as well. Especially relationships can bloat your game. Your Computer also has a great deal to do with this.
