build mode glitching out

My game is glitching out badly.
I've Tried re-loading my save, re-starting my game, re-downloading my game, playing with bb.moveobjects on/off (as that was suggested by some other sims players) and I've also tried bulldozing the terrain and the lot hoping to fix these bugs. (my computer is up to date as is my origin and sims 4 game)
Issue #1 - In build mode If I download a lot from the gallery, most of the time my game will show walls but not be able to delete them. I'll go to select the wall and I'll select things behind the wall that I shouldn't be able to select. (I show a picture of this happening in a basement I built, to clarify it used to delete the room when I deleted a wall in the basement. However if that is not the case this is still happening elsewhere.)
Issue #2 - In build mode on all lots (Yes, I tested multiple lots probably about twenty now.) Walls and fences will glitch out, going invisible. If I surround a sim with a fence or wall they wont be able to get out, but the wall/fence Is not visible. (shown in attached pictures.)
Issue #3 - If I then decide to give up on my fenced in lot and delete the invisible fences the terrain glitches out and I can see through the world. (shown in attached pictures.)
(I show mostly fences but this happens with wall too.)

  • @Suzicu22  Please test in a clean game folder: move your entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop.  When you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  (You can always put your old folder or its subfolders back later.)  Don't add anything to the new folder; just start a new save and play around with build mode a bit, maybe download a couple of lots from the Gallery.  Let me know whether it works, and whether you have mods or custom content.
