Re: Suspect and APB Detective Career Question
@MzMelonz That's been broken for ages and was never bothered to be fixed.
If you don't have CC, it can be incorrect because the game doesn't take into account seasons. If a sim has their everyday outfit being short sleeve shirts and short pants, and it's winter outside, they will change into their cold weather outfit... which won't be the same.
If you DO have CC, the majority of CC is created incorrectly. It's EXTREMELY rare for CC to be properly tagged. Long sleeve shirts tagged as short, jackets tagged as nighties, underwear tagged as jeans... etc. Most CC creators have no idea how to do it properly.
You can fix that one of two ways, either go through EVERY swatch on EVERY CC item you have and tag them ALL properly manually (which will take ages), or remove the "allow for random" tag from ALL CC (which likely won't work on existing games as it will stop CC from being used only on newly generated sims and won't effect already generated sims)
The best thing to do is get as much information as possible on the suspect. I think you can get up to 5 or 6 clues. Ignore outfits and hair and just look at the personality traits. IE. "Teen", "Female", "Mean". You can usually figure it out based upon that. If you find two that match, then look at clothing and hair and see if one of the two comes close, but don't count on it matching perfect. It'll never happen.
