I have a mac and my computer specs are:
macOS Sierra version 10.12.4
Macbook Air (11 inch, early 2015)
Processor 1,6 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Sure, the sims 4 is a little demanding for my computer, and it gets a little hot at times, but it has always worked smoothly, until this issue took place, sure it's a very small issue but when you pay for all the packs in the game and spend all your money, you want the game to run smoothly.
Can you please post your full specs. as requested, including the specific Intel graphics you have and what pointing device you are using. And do you have every single Game/Stuff/Expansion pack released so far, including Bowling? Do you have laptop mode enabled?
