This was asked several pages back, but I never saw a proper response.
Is it just my computer, my copy of the software, or my retardedness that is causing the game to run, AT ULTRA SPEED, at roughly the same or slightly slower pace as Sims1/2 speed 2? If the game is this excruciatingly slow-paced, it's WORSE than the loading screens from TS2; I can only watch my sim sleep for so long before I want to scoop out my eyes with a spoon.
It could be my computer, I've only got a gig of RAM and am running Vista, but it's not lagging or skipping or indicating in any other way that it's my PC speed causing the problem. I just have most of the graphics settings on medium. HALP
I think it's just you. Mine runs at fast speed just fine. You don't have nearly enough RAM for Vista + TS3.
I'm having the same issue, and I have 4GB of RAM and my game is showing no other signs of lagging with all graphic settings on high. Speeds 2 and 3 are exactly the same as speed 1 for me.
