Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Get a mannequin and put some of the unlocked carrier outfits on it
What happens when the bug occurs? the carrier outfits disappear
What do you expect to see? carrier outfits on the mannequin
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. the one we got yesterday, there should fix the mannequin crash.

I hope I am doing this right because I have never reported a bug before.

I have for a long time used carrier outfits I have unlocked, on mannequins so that I as a player have a reason to buy outfits. 

But now the unlocked clothes disappear from the mannequin. they will stay when I first make it, but if I make multiple outfits, they disappear are not available, for other mannequins, if I go into creating on a different mannequin the unlocked clothes disappear, and it also disappears if I re-stock. 

As this has not happened in the past I assume it is a bug, and hopefully not a new thing for sims, that you can not use unlocked clothes for mannequins. 

you can see in the pictures my old saved room. with some mannequins with unlocked carrier outfits, and me putting it down where the clothes disappear. I hope this is an easy solved problem, and I dont have to wait years for it to be fixed. thank you in advance EA.

  • Just discovered this bug, and I am pretty upset about it. It had only recently occurred to me that if you used them to sell CAS unlockables, mannequins and clothing stores wouldn't be completely pointless. And I had put some serious effort into creating a mountain gear shop where I could sell the climbing suit! Maxis, please fix!

    Yes maxis please do fix it. it gives shopping a much more interesting reason to be there. as you actually can get locked items. instead of just buying already existing cas items

  • I have the same problem but I also discovered that if the outfits stay, the sim trying them on don't have the same clothes as the mannequin and buying the outfit doesn't allow them to have the unlocked outfit and the game randomize any outfit instead

  • Encountering this issue while trying to dress mannequins today. Unlocked assets won't stay from one manny to another. EG: Manny 1 dressed in unlocked doctor outfit. Go to dress Manny 2 and the unlocked doctor assets aren't showing/available and have been removed from the look. Manny 1 stays dressed correctly. If I want Manny 2 to have the same doctor outfit, I have to enter into CAS to apply those same unlocked assets again. This is clearly not working as intended or as it used to.

    I noticed this issue when placing a lot I created 3/21 called Modern Sci-Fi Museum that had every manny dressed in unique outfits that include unlocked CAS assets. When placing today, many of the outfits have been changed. So this bug is affecting previously created outfits/builds too.

  • Just wanna make aware its 2024 and this is still a bug problem.

  • Still having issues with this. Spent half the day planning outfits for a build I posted to the gallery today. I could only have one unlocked outfit otherwise they weren't an option on any other mannys on the lot. Just placed my gallery upload into another save and the outfits have reset again - to something totally random. Very frustrating.
