Repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.

Also, try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game. Then add back the "options.ini" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders.

Ok. I will try this after I send my other character to his detective job to see if the build is enabled there.

The problem is that you can't enter any live mode in any community or the career venues?

@MDianaSanders answered my problems. But thank you very much @rosemow

Hello @xAceLlamaFacex
The bb.enablefreebuild cheat is only needed for the police and hospital career lots, and for other hidden lots such as Sylvan Glade.
The lot that you are in may be a lot that you are always able to enter build mode on.

@rosemow hey I don't have the "get to work" game but on my sims 4 the free build mode won't go off, how can I turn it off?

Hello @lotus772
Which cheat have you entered into the cheat box and which lots are you finding that you are having issues with?
All community lots can be edited in build mode without entering the free build mode cheat . The build mode on these lots can't be turned off /on.

And it should be, build mode is freely accessible for all community lots except the police station and the hospital and hidden lots like Sylvan Glade and the Forgotten Grotto. I'm not sure about shops, either owned by a different household or not, since I've only visited them with the Sims that actually owned a particular shop.

If everything works correctly, you'll only need the freebuildmode cheat for the police station, hospital, hidden lots (maybe shops). It turns off once you go through a loading screen.

Also Granite Falls should have build mode disabled.

Um, no.
You can rebuild all the vacation lots there, but not the actual forest parts.

Just save and exit to menu then go back to the lot! That what I did.

When this happened to me I had to reenter all 3 of the cheats in order ( testing, debug & freebuild ), leaving the cheat window open the whole time and then enter them again in the same order with "off" at the end of each. this was from the instructions when the cheat was first introduced.
