Re: [OPEN] Preset Eyes Eyeliner/Eyelashes Lighter Now

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Polski
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.98.158.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Expansions: all except Growing Together, High School Years, Horse Ranch, For Rent, Lovestruck, and Life and Death. Game packs: all except My Wedding Stories and Journey to Batuu. Stuff packs: all except Home Chef Hustle and Crystal Creations.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a Sim with preset eyes with eyelashes. No need to add additional eyelashes from a new CAS category.
What happens when the bug occurs? In CAS, the eyelashes appear to be black as they always were. When in Live Mode, the eyelashes of the preset eyes become a different colour.
What do you expect to see? Black standard preset eyelashes like they always were. Or at least a Sim with eyelashes which colour match both CAS and Live Mode.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

I noticed this... bug? glitch? all the way back in August/September but nobody ever mentioned it and I thought I was just crazy. I had a beautiful female Sim with big eyes and I often compared her to a little doll, but after a while I've noticed her face looked... off? It wasn't as prominent as before. It took me a while to realise it was the lack of defined eyelashes!! (blonde screenshot).

I know for a fact the age of my save isn't the case (I made it Dec 2019) because I have screenshots of this sim with black eyelashes!! I checked my other save and one of my favourite households had this trouble too!! One of my brown-haired sims didn't have black preset eyelashes but the colour was different from the blonde one. (brunette screenshot).

I thought it might be the case of eyelashes taking the colour of the skin, as it used to be a very common bug some time ago. So, I decided to use a different sim - a purple bald alien. Result? Purple eyelashes!! No hair to take colour from, no nails for the clipping or anything, the skin was all that could've been causing the changed colour. (alien screenshot).

    Heya @ForanzoF 

    We have an open thread that's potentially related to this, does this thread look the same issue your running into currently?

    @EA_Cade I didn't write anything on that thread because it didn't look like my issue. However, now I see new replies from September and later, and I AM experiencing the same bug as mankelimatti and SqueamishNerd on that thread!! :O
