UI Not Working (No Mods!)

My entire game is messed up since the update . I’ve removed all mods, repaired through EA app, deleted the mods folder, and localthumbcache file.

What I CAN’T do:

  • none of the UI features are working and opening (e.g. gallery, options menu, simology panel, camera, calendar etc.)
  • Cannot open the cheat box with control+shift+C
  • cannot shift+click on sims
  • i cannot see the selected sim’s picture of the bottom left corner and actions queue, it’s disappeared 
  • teen-adults sims cannot interact with a other sims when selected, the pie menu won’t appear
  • I can click on build mode and move existing objects on the lot but the UI for build mode won’t appear (catalogue and tools). I cannot go back to live mode once I’m in build mode. I have to force a shut down through task manager.
  • i can’t use manage worlds, it freezes when i try.

What I CAN do:

  • Pie menu appears when clicking on selected sim
  • toddler and child sims can interact with sims of all ages, pie menu appears and interactions are successful, this only works if child or toddler sim is selected 
  • the phone is the only Ui feature that will open
  • pause, play and fast forward buttons still work
  • sims of all ages can interact with objects

I’ve opened and closed the game many times. Sometimes a feature that wasn’t working will work then the next time I open it. Something that disappeared will reappear after restarting the game. What works and doesn’t work isn’t consistent.
