Have you changed the clothing settings for a restaurant during gameplay?

@Lexington1390 Were you in the Gallery prior to the controls not working or were you editing clothing in the CAS for a restaurant?

Can you please check your game version number by pressing the bumpers and triggers simultaneously, then type in the word Version in the cheat box and press enter. Once in the list, scroll to the top of the numbers listed there to the word "Base." The numbers after "Base" are your game version.

@sesalie08&nbsp;A few different threads for controls are currently open. Please check through these and post in the thread that matches your issue if you haven't already.&nbsp;"Editing restaurant/vet outfits breaks it UI/Controls"&nbsp;or&nbsp;"Gallery Menu Distortion"&nbsp;or&nbsp;"Can’t rotate sim in create a sim"

This happened to me as well! However, there is a very quick and simple fix. If you downloaded a lot from the gallery and placed it down, this problem might have happened to you! So the easy fix is to just save your game, restart your Xbox, and just reboot your game! Simple! I hope I helped! Have a great day!&nbsp;🥳
