- How can I make Sims 3 run better?
31
1. Use and configure NRAAS Master Controller with the Integration Module and set all categories to "compact" in CAS settings.
32
2. Use and configure NRAAS Overwatch, Error Trap, and Register if you're using Pets, Bridgeport, or Isla Paradiso.
33
3. Use S3PE to merge packages if you have a lot of folders or CC items (DO NOT merge skintones, mods, patterns, defaults, or overrides.)
34
5. Your game will get slower the more content you've installed. Try only installing the EPs/SPs that you want.

- My disc is scratched and can't load the game (TS3):
63
Contact EA customer support with box/codes/serial, etc. ready to provide proof you own the game, and they might be able to give you an origin code for the digital version. And be ready to wait, because the service tends to be very slow.
