This is by no means a magical fix for the numerous crashing/lagging/hanging issues but it can help if your issues are memory related. There’s no limit to the amount of times you can do this.
Your game should now perform a bit quicker. After a few moments you should see the free RAM figure increase: If it’s low you definitely need to free some up. Next, open up Activity Monitor and see how much free RAM you have:Īpplications > Utilities > Activity Monitor With the game running (and paused) hold down CMD and press Enter. If you’re running Snow Leopard you can install Xcode from the disc that came with your Mac.įirstly, play in windowed mode so you can see what you’re doing. It’s free, provided by Apple, and available from the App Store. If you get “ Command not found” in Terminal you may need to download Xcode in order for it to work. You can buy apps from the App Store to do this but why bother when you can do it through Terminal for free? You can do this when your game starts to lag noticeably which seems to happen to me when I’m moving between Vacation, University and Home worlds in The Sims 3. You need to free some of it up and you can easily do this whilst you’re playing. Another symptom is the Exception Raised, do you wish to debug it? error message. If you suffer from frequent crashes/lagging/hanging in game and/or the dreaded Error 12, this may be because your Mac is running out of RAM whilst you’re playing.
