Re: How do I control a Sim using Xbox one

Sims 4 on Xbox one

I'm almost ready to return it.
I can't find instructions anywhere and its frustrating me.

Thanks for clarifying, @AckMaster1. I'm moving your thread to The Sims 4 forums then 😉

Have you already created your Sim? Could you place your Sim in a house and load the house without issues?

Once you are in the house, with your Sim, you should be able to press A while the cursor is in an object to see the different interactions available for that object. If you select one of the interactions and press A again, your Sim should do the interaction you selected.

You can find a list of the controls for the game here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Consoles/Controls-for-The-Sims-4-on-consoles/td-p/6446759

If that doesn't help, could you give us details of where in the game are you and what difficulties are you finding, so we can try to help?

I'm going to try it. I'll get back to you.
Thanks!

I created one Sim, went to build mode and made a bathroom and a kitchen. Went to play mode, can't put Sim into kitchen.

Hi @AckMaster1,

If you press A while cursor is selecting the fridge, do you get the option to ask your Sim to cook something? What happens when you select any option?

Make sure your Sim has a door to be able to access the kitchen. If you placed foundations, your Sim will need stairs as well.

Would it be possible for you to take a screenshot and share it with us? We might be able to see the problem more easily if we can see the house 🙂
