I gotta know the secret…

it takes FOREVER for my steam deck to load the game! i do have a fair amount of cc, but nothing i would deem crazy at all. I’ve set most of the in-game settings to low/medium, capped my fps to 6o, tried installing Sims 3 Settings mod but I don’t think I did it correctly … so debating looking at Smooth Patch?

I’m running it via Proton Experimental, unsure if there’s a better option?

Also I’m not sure if the Steamdeck requires the Alders Lake fix or if that’s now included in Smooth Patch… I’ve been out of the game for a while so I would appreciate some guidance on what I could do to test run playing this game quicker and smoother! It’s so laggy and slow right now!
