My build mode is not working?

[DragonRiderElisa]

My sims 4 build mode is bugging out big time. When i try to rotate the camera it causes the screen to shift so far to the right without me doing it which is annoying. It's also extremely slow and I have no idea why it's bugging out, I clicked repair for my game but it did nothing

Do you play with CC/Mods? If so please move your Mods folder to the desktop then load your game again and see if it still lags. Do not save it but just quit after testing.

Could you also please trash the Options.ini file in Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4. This resets your graphics options in-game.

Let us know how you get on

I removed the Options.ini file first to see if that would work (if not i would remove my mods) and it seems to be working perfectly now!

@DragonRiderElisa

Super! The settings were probably just a little too high. Bear in mind that high poly CC can really cause lag due to all the rendering the game has to do

[DragonRiderElisa]

I will keep that in mind, thank you so much for the help!
