CAS, Build mode, live mode camera being weird

I quit playing TS4 for around a year and came back around a month ago, and I’ve noticed how in CAS whenever I try moving a body part there’s this weird force pulling the cursor to the opposite direction of where I’m moving it, and it ends up drastically messing up the Sim. Same goes for the camera in both live and build mode, whenever I try to move it to a certain direction theres this slight force or this resistance pulling the camera to the opposite direction. I went from using the Sims 4 camera to the Sims 3 camera and there is no difference in the camera’s weird resistance. I use a macbook btw. Help pls its SO ANNOYING

    Yes, that’s what I’m thinking may be the issue as you’ve had it continuously on one machine then another.

    I never use Time Machine, always preferring to manually copy over files and always installing software as new.

    The best test would be to wipe your machine and reinstall the OS but that may be a little drastic. I would do that though 🙂

    Hello.

    Just letting you know the team no longer needs additional information about this issue for the time being.  They will investigate.

    Thank you.

  • Hello, so I am playing the sims and when I was creating a new sim while dragging the body parts it keeps pushing it to the left. I can move it up and down but not left or right. For example, the hips, if I wanted to make them smaller then it doesn't work, it just pushes them bigger. I took my mods out and tried updating everything, but it didn't work. Can anyone help me, please

    Since I have a Time Machine drive, I decided to wipe my iMac to test things out. After wiping my iMac's SSD using Recovery Mode's Disk Utility and then reinstalling macOS, I set the computer up as new, and transferred no data. The only setting I changed was enabling right-click on the Magic Mouse. I freshly installed Origin using Safari, and then installed the base game, fresh as well. This didn't fix this issue. It appeared immediately in CAS on the entirely new installation. It's starting to look like the bug is following around my Origin Account, rather than my computers.

    And for what it's worth, I'm running the Limited Edition version of the base game. I don't know if the versions of the base game might have different coding, but I just figured I'd just mention it, since it appears to be the only version of the base game (in the U.S. anyway) that didn't get the rebranded, royal blue cover art. At least, in my library, it didn't. The only time I've ever seen it change, is when I set my VPN to Germany, and I get the regional cover art.

    Thanks for testing and reporting back 🙂 The base game editions are all the same, apart from the Legacy edition which doesn't get any updates.
