@crinrict So I just mapped the middle click button action to another button on my gaming mouse and it works fine. I just don't understand why it suddenly changed when the update came out since it was working fine the night before. I tried the middle button again in game and tried pressing it really hard and it worked although it's not like I'll be pressing that hard while playing the game. I guess I'll have to keep it mapped to another button for The Sims 4.
I'm very confused but I guess somehow this is a mouse issue on a Logitech mouse I've only had 6 months and the issue began exactly when this game patch came out. I'm not much for coincidences but either way I guess I found my fix. Not sure if there's a way this post can be deleted or hidden or something since it's not a game issue. Anyway thanks for the suggestion that lead me to figuring it out! I really appreciate it!
@crinrict It is really weird. So I used the program for the gaming mouse and mapped the middle button to be right click. I tested it out and just clicking the button normally with the normal amount of pressure where I hear it click does nothing. If I put a ton of pressure like where my wrist starts to lift up from the desk then it works as I programmed it. So it does appear to be a problem with the mouse for sure but the timing is very weird. I swear I was playing The Sims 4 with it less than 12 hours before updating the game and it was fine. I checked the software for the mouse and there are no updates So it's weird but it seems to be the mouse and I guess now I'm stuck with a mouse with a broken middle button. Wonder if it's still under warranty...
Thanks so much for your help!
@died4u525 I think I had the same issue, deleted the Options file in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4, this reset all the options after setting those back to how I had them it worked like normal again.
