Sims 4 Cursor Won't Appear

★★★ Apprentice

As you can see in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKiqsMQIZwU the mouse cursor isn't there, all there was is my windows cursor, it's weird cuz the cursor glitches whenever i move the camera or morph the sims in cas. it's kinda getting on my nerves.

What's your OS ?

 

Are you using Origin in Game ? What Software are you using to make your videos ? Are they running in the background ?

 

Did you try a clean boot to see if it's any other programs running in the back ?

 

Are you playing in fullscreen or windowed screen ? Did you try switching between them ?

Did you do all the usual troubleshooting steps like repairing the game, deleting cache files and such ?

@crinrict alright so i've tried looking for troubleshooting guides, all i can find are ones for the Mac.

 

these are the things i did:

 

1. Repair game - Didn't work

 

2. Move folder to desktop, let game create a new one - Didn't work

 

3. Clear cache - The cache is already cleared

 

4. Turned off post processing option - Didn't work

 

what else can I do? it's really getting annoying that my cursor is a windows factory cursor

Re: Sims 4 Cursor Won't Appear

my OS is windows 10

 

Yes i use origin in game.

 

the recording software i use is action mirillis, but ti shouldn't matter because it's within the game not the program.

 

I turn off my pc at night almost every night, and this problem has been happening for almost a week.

 

I've tried both fullscreen and windowed. nothing changed.

 

*Testing game with program closed.*

 

Nope closing mirillis action didn't help.

 

*lemme close out all the programs i won't need.*

 

*i closed my programs, and the cursor went back to normal. i'm thinking it's Evolvehq doing this bug.*

 

IT WAS EVOLVEHQ

 

omg that's so dumb xDDDD

 

@crinrict thanks for your help boo!
