Major bugs after nov 12 update Mac

My game has had major issues since updating. No cc installed. The screen glitches very bad with blue flashes. Sims walk through walls. I can see random speech bubbles in my house. Major lag. Eeeeh it’s very frustrating because I had none of those problems before the update. 

im running MAcOS High Sierra

mackbook pro (13 inch mid 2012)

2.5 GHz intel core i5

4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

intel HD graphics 4000 1536 MB

    @sirenxxx1947 Is there any chance you can share a screen shot of the glitching?

    Can you try going from Full Screen mode to Windowed mode? Any change?

    Do you see a difference if you disable Edge Smoothing, or change the overall graphics settings to a lower level?

    I did mess with the settings and edge smoothing completely off helped with the glitch a lot but my game looks horrible.  These things are still very prominent;

    - seeing random speech bubbles 

    - sims walking through walls

    - neighbors coming by every single day, multiple times thought the day ( never experienced this before) 

    - lag ( a lot better now with the edge smoothing off)

    I’ll try to get some screenshots up as soon as I can

    @sirenxxx1947 Thanks, that would be helpful.

    I don't have a workaround for the drop in resolution for Live Mode that some players see once they disable edge smoothing, but I'm still trying to think of something (it doesn't happen for me, so I can't really experiment). The other things you're seeing ... I'm wondering if you have CC or Mods that might not be compatible with the Nov 12 update. Have you tried running with a totally clean TS4 folder (move the existing one to your desktop, then restart) to see if those problems persist?
