Thanks to Radical Clown Friend once more for finding out this superior FPS Limiter fix! If you want to know why FPS limiting needs to be done on Sims 3 games that run on newer cards, what’s the difference between windowed mode and full screen and how to run the game borderless, check out the old, now outdated thread here: You can still use the original launcher by launching Launcher.exe Don’t forget to create a new shortcut for it and ALWAYS RUN IT AS ADMIN! Run the game trough this launcher if you want to bypass the original one. If you haven’t had my launcher bypass before, rename your original game launcher from Sims3Launcher.exe to Launcher.exe and then place this file in the game install bin ( where the launcher is). If you have installed my old one, you can just replace it with this new one. exe file specifically for normal games to bypass the launcher. If you are on 1.69 but aren’t using 3booter, I’ve made another. There is few more things if you truly want to have a clean experience. You can open antilag.cfg with notepad and edit your desired FPS limit to any FPS you want.
The FPS will be limited to 30FPS by default. Your game can be ran normally like you’ve always ran it before. (or whatever your install location of the game is). Open and extract the contents of it toĬ:/Program Files (x86)/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Game/Bin orĬ:/Program Files x(86)/Origin Games/The Sims 3/Game/Bin Scroll down a bit, click * Manual Download* Once you are done and have your own account, go back to this download link. If you haven’t had an account there before, make it, it’s free. If you’ve never followed my older FPSLmiter fix tutorial, you can skip these initial steps completely! If you still however do want to bypass the launcher, skip this step and read on. If you’ve also installed my new launcher, and don’t want to bypass the launcher delete Sims3Launcher.exe and rename Launcher.exe back to Sims3Launcher.exe For 1.69, if your files are named like this:
If you’ve followed my OLD GUIDE, you need to do these steps first: The only problem with this method is that you have to make an account at NexusMods to download the limiter, but that’s easy as accounts there are free.
In fact one such person in particular, aka Radical Clown Friendhas found a better way to limit Sims 3 FPS both for windowed and fullscreen modes, with just a few clicks. Some people encountered errors with the FPS Limiting method I posted few days earlier and because of that, another method of FPS limiting was found.
