I've been having persistent issues with The Sims 4 recently, and it's really starting to affect my gameplay experience. Every time I open the cheat bar, the game freezes on that screen and becomes unresponsive. I’m unable to use any other functions—it just stays locked. The only way I’ve found to save any progress is by exiting to the "Manage Worlds" screen, which is frustrating and time-consuming.
The problem gets even worse when I try to enter Create-a-Sim (CAS) mode, especially when I use the cas.fulleditmodecheat. In this mode, the screen often freezes completely. I can't move my Sim, click on different features to edit, or make any changes. And unlike the cheat bar issue, there's no way to save progress—I’m forced to completely close the game, which causes me to lose everything I've worked on.
These issues have been happening repeatedly, and it's become very discouraging. I haven’t been able to make any real progress in the game for a while because of these recurring freezes.
