Please help! I don't know what I did!
This will be long. I'm sorry. I just want all the details to be there. I'm on a 2018 MacBook Air. I haven't played my game since 2024. Last year I tried to play but realized I didn't have enough storage on my Mac to do the much needed software update or download the new EA app. I put it off and told myself I would just get an external hard drive later. Fast forward to now -- I have the external hard drive. I bought a Maxone 320GB hard drive and last night I freed a bunch of space on my Mac by putting personal files and some sims files on it. I was finally able to update my Mac and download the Ea app. I downloaded the game and all of the packs I have. All of my saves are gone which stung a bit but I've been here before and don't mind starting over. What I can't deal with is an issue I've never had before-- CAS is broken. I'll attach a photo: From the looks of it, it's only my packs. It's not any base game items. I have no idea what I did wrong! Extra info: My mods AND cc have been removed My game used to play from my iCloud files. I put a copy of that folder on my external hard drive. I have a bunch of Sims4 related folders on this hard drive and I'm wondering if that's what's causing the issue? I have already tried repairing the game I have already tried uninstalling the packs Here is what the hard drive looks like. I labeled the folders 1, 2, and 3. Folder 1 has the same exact folder in it with more sims data Forgive me if I sound like a bone head but I'm not good with this stuff and really just want to be able to play my game again : ( thank you all for any help!
Can't Full Screen Without Having Cursor Calibration Issues
Hello, yesterday I mirrored my MAC screen to another laptop (my own), since then my sims 4 has been having mouse calibration issues on top of other things. When I go into full screen, the sims 4 title on the top of the window will not go away. This in turn has made it so that my cursor to click onto anything has to be below the object I want to click on, instead of the usual click onto the object to select. I've tried resetting my computer, restoring the game, opening and closing the app/game. Nothing seems to be working. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this issue? I attached an image below to give an example of what my screen looks like.
Mac cursor showing instead of in-game
Every time I load the game the in game cursor doesn't show up and it only shows my own mac one. I took my whole mod folder out and it is still showing, I have tried changing my resolution and windowing my game but nothing seems to be working. I've attached a video showing the issue
First-person camera randomly stabilized
When using the Sims 4 first-person camera (Shift + Tab), the camera no longer tilts or sways at all. It stays perfectly level and stabilized during every animation (walking, standing, interacting, turning, etc.) Previously, there was subtle camera tilt/sway that followed the Sim’s movement, which made first-person feel fluid. Now the camera feels completely locked, as if all camera interpolation or tilt has been disabled. First person itself still works, but the camera no longer responds to any animation with tilt or sway. I was wondering why that is and how to get it back to being chaotic and unstable?*URGENT* !!! Can't get title bar off my screen
I think this white title bar showed up after accidentally activating Split View, I don’t want the title bar on my game all the time. I want to play full screen with no white title bar, how can I get rid of it? See on the screen shot, even in full screen it’s still showing. thank you , bless up
Game screen glitches when I load into other lots. NVIDIA GPU
Product: The Sims 4 Platform:Mac Which language are you playing the game in? English How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%) What is your current game version number? Idk What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Most of everything but no kits. Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Going to a community lot What happens when the bug occurs? The screen glitches different colors. What do you expect to see? Not a rave light show on my computer Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes Please describe the patch or change you made. This only started happening after the latest update When I load onto other lots outside of my household the screen glitches different colors and weird streaks. This only happened after the last patch update. Edit - edited title to reflect status (Bluebellflora)Bottom screen controls not appearing.
None of the controls at the bottom of the screen appear when I try to play a Sim; then when I try to exit and press the Manage Worlds button, the entire screen goes black. I tried repairing the game and uninstalling and reinstalling the EA app, but it keeps happening. I do not use mods at all, so I know that that is not the cause.Scary glitch with everything
soo I was playing and then this happened. It’s not my computer. No mods or cc. Restarting did luckily fix it. Hopefully the link works, otherwise it’s was black box jumping across my screen like it was poses https://share.snapchat.com/m/ESQwE3fu?share_id=Di1P2b5vQmu6f4LpsbG8vQ&locale=en_SEGame is making desktop ui bigger and glitchy for some reason
So earlier I accidentally backed up everything to the iCloud Drive. I managed to recover everything thankfully and I’m slowly adding things back in. After putting my mods back in, the game for some reason makes my desktop ui bigger and somewhat glitchy with my folders that are on the desktop. It still does this after removing my mods as well. Any reason as to why and how to fix this? This has never happened to me before and I have no idea where to begin to fix it. My saves and tray files are also backed up. However, I’m about 2 updates behind. Is my game not being updated causing this possibly? Like I said, I’m at a loss for what to do as I’ve never had this happen before. How do I fix this? Is it even fixable?
