Title: Disappearing Command Bubble
Post by: lipstickonmetal on April 04, 2009, 01:37:11 pm
So, I'm running into this problem where whenever I click on an object (couch, TV, other Sim, etc etc), the command bubble pops up for maybe a second and then goes away. I've removed any new mods I've downloaded since this started happening, and it's still there.

Oh, by command bubble I mean the circle with your Sim's face in the middle, with the command options around the edges. It's beginning to irritate me, I tried all last night to fix it by changing settings and removing mods one by one, but I can't seem to get it fixed by myself this time  :'( :confused: :confused:

Can anyone shed some light on what's going on here?

BTW, specs are as follows:

Vista
AMD Turion x64 (2x1.9GHz)
2GB RAM
ATI Radeon Xpress 1150 (1GB) GFX Card


I really appreciate any help, I tried to find an answer in the FAQs but came up short. Thanks for looking!

Hmm similar setup to yours except mine is 1GB DDR2 RAM and AMD Semptron 3800+.

Have you tried adjusting the mouse clicking speed?

I've Played the sims for two years on this computer, and I've never had this problem and i have also downloaded a driver and installed it based on someone elses reconmendation. i dont believe the mouse is the problem because it doesnt seem to effect the other game play just in live mode...

A driver for what if you don't mind us asking? Did the recent driver update change the way you played Sims 2 as described in your earlier post?
