Hi everyone, im new xD Someone linked me here as it may help? But my query might not be for this thread so sry :p
Im wondering if there is a way (on PS4) to "Reset the game/Character" You see, I made a character I really like, and started playing unbeknown you age. So i'd like to restart everything from scratch but with my Character i spent ages making (setting age to long not normal)
I cant use my library saves as the only save of the character i got is skilled and aged up and now starts like that :/ (I deleted the original saves because i edited the sims face slightly later on and re-saved that.)
Yeh something i've noticed in build mode which is very frustrating at the moment is it works fine then i don't know what causes it but i move up on the stick to select a category and it keeps dashing up to the lot details at the top left so if i go down i cannot move up to choose a category.

You could always turn on testingcheats then type cas.fulleditmode. After that, you hold circle and click x on the sim to get the option to fully edit them and age them down. Save the changes to your library and make a new game (if you want to be able to unlock trophies, otherwise you can just continue your current game).

Though it works occasionally, using R3 is not a long-term solution when you're dealing with multiple Sims. It also increases the tendency of your cursor to get stuck in that lower right area (collections, needs, work, etc...).
@floralney maybe you could tell me exactly which object you raised in your own PS4 console, The Sims4 game, so that I can try and duplicate what you did?
Any object really. I mainly use it for curtains or paintings. Select the object then L2+R2+up or down.
Ok. So the L2 + R2 will only raise or lower any object that is normally placed on a wall when that objects height is normally adjustable. Sorry, just trying to clarify what you are trying to say. I get it now. I thought my game was bugged. Sadly, it's getting a bit glitchy already. My game has crashed several times, and the item description bubbles are staying popped up, occasional screen flashing, just to name a few. I'm disappointed and sad about it, but not surprised. Going to move family to the library and start a new save, limit one played family per save, limit game time to one hour playing sessions. If that doesn't work I will delete everything and reinstall. Back up your saves folks.

On my PS4 I seem to not be able switch between window placement types at all. Is there a fix for this?
Im having issues with the cursor going out of control in build mode. I have an extremely difficult time selecting anything because the cursor likes to switch between the ui screens. Can this please be fixed? @EA_Mage and @SimGuruDrake
If playing on ps4 pro
I press the large square button to slow it down.
It works fine for me then.
If you want to move things up and down, on the Xbox One, hold down LT and RT and on the road go press up or down, depending if you want to go up or down
I was wondering about the ability to move objects up and down again, for one game session I had figured it out on Xbox one holding RT & LT and the up arrow (similar to resizing) would move objects up but I tried again just now and it won't work

I think sometimes you have to turn on bb.moveobjects to raise and lower it.
Does anyone know if there is a ‘shift’ key equivalent for xbox? I’m trying to adjust only one side of roof’s overhang. Apparently on PC you can do that with the ‘shift’ key.
Is it just my PS4 game? Pressing triangle and square to delete a whole stack does not work in Household Inventory. It does work in my Sims personal inventory.
Hi, I have problem with adding grass on my terrain (PS4 version). I simply can't move to menu which I can switch rounded to square shape in. Is there a bug in my version or should I use specific controls for it?

Use the arrows on the controller after selecting the paint design.

Can you guys seriously consider adding mouse and keyboard support for consoles? Let's face it, this is 100% a point and click game. Native mouse and keyboard seems common sense for a game like this,
To be honest, I'm struggling playing on the PS4. It's not easy to click on a sim who's walking fast or jogging down the sidewalk to try and click on them to interact with them. There isn't even basic joystick sensitivity settings built in the Settings menu. Build mode is where a mouse and keyboard is key, trying to place objects in the exact spot you want them is really a pain with joysticks.
I know it will take extra effort and programming time, but please add native mouse and keyboard support.
Today I bought Sims 4 for the PS4 and I was IMMEDIATELY dissatisfied with the game. I understand that the controls and cursor are not going to be as easy to use, but the menus are completely unusable.
Clicking on the eyes and eyebrows doesn't bring up any options for editing those features. I have tried absolutely EVERYWHERE on the screen and it brings up the same 🐸🐸🐸🐸 menu. This is absolutely unacceptable. No matter where I click, it gives me the options for Face, Hair, Hats, Accessories and Makeup, that's it. I can edit the body, the clothes, the hair, just not the eyebrows or eyes no matter where I click.
I spoke with THREE support representatives and they essentially told me tough 🐸🐸🐸🐸, to post it in the forums and hope for an answer! That there is a "sweet spot" I need to find on my own and I have to deal with it as is until the issue is resolved. Absolutely and completely ridiculous! How can you justify selling a game that is so obviously incomplete that you can't even click on the desired option and edit it?! That's the most basic of features. This game is an utter disappointment and EA Help is even worse than the game itself.

I've been able to do it okay? Just click on the eyebrows and the menu comes up?
> @LoveMcQueen5683 said: > Anyone know how to use the memory system? ??
They didn't bring the memory system over to the console version. SimGuruDuke says on Twitter that "It is not on console since we removed the in game UI for taking screenshots which is where this feature lived."
I was so excited to hear it coming to ps4. But I'm just holding fire until mouse and keyboard are supported as I know playing without it will just put me off the game. The way I see it is the longer they take to make that change the cheaper the game will be anyway so win win for me
