Let's give the following steps a try:
Run a full power cycle on your console by following these steps:
- Turn off the Xbox console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds. This will shut down your console completely.
- Unplug the console's power cable. Wait 30 seconds so the power supply is reset.
- Plug the console power cable back in.
- Press the Xbox button on your console to turn on the Xbox.
If this doesn't help, we'll want to try a full uninstall and reinstall of The Sims.
We'll then want to check a few things on your controller:
- Replace the batteries in your controller
- Manually power-cycle your controller
- Connect your controller to your Xbox using a USB cable
- Check for a firmware update on your controller
- Restore your controller's button mapping settings to default-
- Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
- Under Profile & system, select Settings.
- Under Devices & connections, select Accessories.
- On the Xbox Wireless Controller screen, select Configure.
- Select Restore to default to set the controller back to its original button mapping.
Please also test a different controller, and keep me updated on how this works for you!
So first I tried uninstalling my game and all of my packs and then I updated my controller and the bug is still occurring. I didn’t explain the actual issue well in my first post but basically as you can see in the screenshot when I hover over sims in game the white outline does not appear I can only see their name and life stage, the same problem on objects, when I press A on sims/objects no options show up I hear the click sound effect but nothing appears. Also when I click LT to switch between sims, my screen is dragged to the other sim but I’m not playing her if that makes sense, I can’t switch to her at the bottom.
