I can't click on the lights in live mode

Hy everyone!

I can't click on lights when I'm in live mode, at all.

I wanted to turn on the automatic lights and when I hover with the cursor over any light it doesn't change into the cursor with the tiny gear near it, and when I click them it does't do anything.

Yes, I have some mods, but I removed them and it still doesn't work.

Do you have any ideea what can cause this issue?

  • @luat_dianaIt's a pain in the butt but yeah.
    Seems the best fix for most issues of late ( even non CC users ) is to move mod folder out along with Tray / saves and then repair ( I mention non CC users in that even they have reported issues with latest patches etc ) 
    Start a new clean game ( just a quick one, you wont need to keep playing it )
    Then put your stuff back in. As long as your mods are up to date ( and For Rent and patches caused a lot of chaos on mods ) you should be fine.
    I recommend the FAME opt in tick trick for everyone right now. That NPC issue can creep in and out without it. ☹️

    LOL.. or as below by our hero says 😉 Hiya @crinrict 

  • HI @luat_diana 

    Try the following

    • Close the game
    • Rename Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old
    • Repair the game
    • Start the game. All your content will be gone now as the game created a new folder. All your saves/.. is still in the old folder so not to worry
    • Start a new save game
    • Check if you still have the error
    • Report back with your results for further steps on how to get your stuff back.
