Re: [DU] Sims Turning into Servos

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.60.54.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All but tiny living, Moschino, my first pet, toddler, bowling night, kids room, cool kitchen, luxury party stuff packs.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have Discover University and have crafted a Servo and added it to household
What happens when the bug occurs? Other Sims will have Servo skin, and revert back later at random. Trying to alter the Sim in CAS proves ineffective, or debugging the sim. Sims I have created and non-played sims change.
What do you expect to see? For the sims to not change into Servos
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. After I installed Discover University and I crafted a Servo and added it to my household

‌

I had mods installed, at the start of Discover University, then they didn't work with the games version, so I uninstalled them. This bug happened way later than when the mods had been installed and then uninstalled. I noticed another discussion about this same problem but saw the result was that it needed more information, hopefully I provided more and we can get this bug fixed 🙂

    @Tonyunderminer If you have the holiday pack, I believe they introduced the Servo costume a little bit before DU was released. Also if you have sims that work in the sci career the Alien Uniforms and Scientist Uniforms are so close to Servo. While playing a scientist that has discovered Aliens NPC that are Aliens won't hide anymore around your scientist sim. Alien skin tone is purple to light blue, green to pink. I believe NPC sims can where whatever clothing costumes they want available in CAS, but it won't change the main cloth they have already chosen on played sims or player created non played sims.

    I do have the holiday pack, and no sims of mine are working in the sci career or wear the scientist or alien uniforms. All other sims would be normal then just turn into servos, i.e. Dirk Dreamer (Get Famous). He does not own any servo outfits and he is an example that turned into a Servo. I would try to use cas.fulleditmode on him but cant alter his looks or outfits. Later when I play he will turn back to normal. Sometimes in CAS when I go to edit the Sims who have mysteriously turned into Servos, they will either appear normal as is nothing is wrong or they have actually become Servos. When I exit however they are still Servos, and dont turn back until some random time in the future.

    Update on this thread: I have noticed that if a sim has mysteriously turned into a Servo, they can be reverted back by going into the pool. Whenever a Sim in my household turns into the Servo, who is in my household as well, I just make them swim in the pool and the Sim turns right back to normal. Hope this helps!
