I've never had this issue before so I'm not sure how to fix it. When I load my game, everything is normal, however when I go into build mode and back to live mode All my bars at the bottom of the screen are gone. It won't let me interact with other sims or objects. This also occurs any time I travel to another lot. I attempted to Leave one location to go back home but it wouldn't let me select anything. I've repaired the game but that did nothing to fix it. I assume it's a bug from the latest update, but does anyone have any ideas? All of my mods are up to date to the best of my knowledge, but could it possibly be a complication with one of them?

Do you have UI Cheats installed? If so, that may be causing the issue. I had the same problem as you and it was resolved after removing the mod. Try disabling or deleting the mod and let me know if that works!Hope this helps, Jai :)

I am having this exact issue and I really hope it gets fixed soon :( It's making the game completely unplayable

brittyjayy Does this happen with your Mods folder removed? Please try it and let me know. You don't need to save your progress.

If this doesn't help, let me know whether you're playing a scenario.

barelybythebook If your issue is exactly the same, then the above applies to you as well.

Same issue. Happening on both console (PS5, no mods) and PC. Started happening with the last couple of laundry day patch updates.

aBeautifulStory Are you playing a scenario when this happens, at least on PS5 with no mods? There are a few bug reports for UI-related issues, with different triggers, so it would be helpful to have some context.

I removed my mods folder and it still had the same issue. I had to delete the UI mod and it went back to normal

you know now that you mention it: i have the same issue here
i'm playing with scenario, i don't know if that has something to do with it?
i can try a different save without the scenario and see if it's scenario related or not?
but i have this issue for like a week or 2 or so now
(i don't use mods and cc's at this moment and deleted the cache and other things that isn't important to The Sims 4)

sailorleontine Please do head to Bug Reports if you have no mods/CC. Test to see if this happens only in a Scenario save.

so it seems scenario related i can't do things Brittyjayy have mentioned in the descriptions
