And it works so well 🙂
Intel chips really aren't designed for gaming and high performance rendering. 99% of the graphics issues I've come across over the years with the Sims have been down to underpowered Intel chips so the fact that this issue only affects Macs with Intel is no real surprise. It's a shame but hopefully the Metal upgrade is going to help a bit in the future.
That's the funny thing, I have never had any other issues, graphics wise, with the Sims 4 or X-plane (which eats far more GPU than the Sims 4) they both run very smooth even with fairly high settings and add-ons. It is only the cursor in CAS that is glitched from High Sierra onward, never had it in Sierra.

This issue has been fixed in the April '19 patch, 1.51.75.1220 so I will mark this post as solved. However, if you are still experiencing this exact issue, and have Intel only graphics, please post here and I will remove the solution.
- Fixed an issue for Mac users with Intel integrated graphics, where the mouse cursor would not move properly after adjusting the shape of a Sim’s body in Create a Sim.
- 7 years agoAfter 2+ years this dumb glitch has been fixed😩 I hope this issue doesn’t happen again or I’ll rip my hair out.

Yep, can confirm this seems to be fixed now. Agreed no need that it took that long.

Sadly I updated my game and the glitch is still there....really have NO idea why, since everyone else's seems to be fixed. My info is all the same as last time. ☹️ Glad it got fixed for everyone else though!!

After updating, repairing the game, loading without CC and starting a new game, I'm still having the same issue I've been having for the last 2 years. Nothing was fixed for me. ☹️

Thanks both. You both have Broadwell processors with Intel Iris 6xxxx graphics. Not sure if that is relevant but interesting. Thanks for your specs. 🙂

Mine is not fixed either. See my earlier post for specs
