This summer, I will buy a max specd MacBook Pro 2017, I will try to remember your post and come back with some feedback from my experience playing the game (: I have no plans installing Windows on that one too though, I feel Windows is so slow compared with MacOS, at least on my Mac Mini. I found a list on Mod The Sims showing every compatible graphics cards, so I suggest you check it out there (: You may have 16GB of RAM, and an i7 processor, but if your graphics card is not compatible with Sims 3, then you'll not have a decent experience. It should show up on your desktop, a CD icon, just click on that icon. Close that window and reinsert the game disc. When playing Sims 3, the graphics card on your Mac/PC is essential for having a decent gaming-exerience. Click on 'Finder' Go to 'Preferences', then under the 'General' tab where it sais 'Show these items in the desktop' make sure the option 'CDs, DVDs and Ipods' is checked. More Sims should be able to join sims town, the babies need to be able to interact with Preteens and toddlers, and the toddlers should have more quests. When I started the game in Windows 10, it was playable, but still, I was really disappointed not being able to play the game on more than low-mid-settings.īut, I have learned by my mistakes. Upgrades Needed This is thus far the best game I have ever played. I could not play Sims 3 in MacOS because the game kept crashing, and having sever graphical corruptions. When I bought my Mac Mini with full specs, I really hoped I would be able to play Sims 3 decently, but it all turned out to be a disaster.
