Clicking Issue?!

maisy_

I just recently updated my game and decided to play. I tried to click on the shower to have my sim shower and the action to go fishing popped up. I tried to click on the dance floor thing and the light settings popped up. It will either act like I'm clicking on a different object or I'm clicking on a non-interactive item. My settings are at what I normally keep them and this is the first time I had this issue. The issue is only in-game.

Hello
Do you have cc/mods in your game? If you do, move your mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and test to see if the issue is still there. If it has helped with the issue, put your mods/ CC back into the newly generated mods folder that is in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing after each one to see which is the causes of the problem.

If the issue still remains, repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.


Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game and then copy back the "options.ini" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders from the desktop sims 4 folder .

@rosemow I did what you suggested and it didn't resolve the issue and my game got erased. I forgot to mention I use a MacBook Air to play.

Hello.
Have you copied back your saves folder from the desktop into the new sims 4 folder? The saves folder contains your saves files, and when you copy that folder back in to replace the new saves folder, your saves games will be back.

After you have done that, if the clicking issues remain, it may be best to post about your issue in the Mac section of the forums. The link to that section is

I'm having the same issue after updating to the latest patch. Able to load game but the game itself is not playable due to strange clicking behavior.
