Re: [MOD/CC RELATED] Sims have a shattered/buggy face

Hello.  I noticed there were some instances of people reporting distorted faces on sims in CAS.  I just noticed it happened to me as well, so I started testing through my mods to find out the issue.  First I removed my presets and eyelashes because those seem to be reported as the culprits, but that didn't work.  Then I removed all my UI mods, and that didn't work.  Then I removed my entire CAS cc folder, and that didn't work.  Then I removed the contents of my entire mods folder except MCCC, and that still didn't work.  Then I removed MCCC so only the Resource.cfg file was left in my Mods folder, and that STILL didn't work.  So I removed the entire Sims 4 Folder from the Electronics Arts folder, loaded the game, went to CAS and the issue was gone.  So in that same new Sims 4 Folder that was generated, I moved a copy of my current save file to it in the saves subfolder (no mods or cc), went to CAS, and the issue was back!  So I removed that save and copied a previous save into the new Sims 4 Folder and loaded the game, and the issue was still there.  So with no mods/cc in a fresh new Sims 4 Folder, I'm getting the distortion in the attachment to this message.

Is there something else to try that I haven't tried yet?  Has this been reported as corrupting an entire save without a fix? I was also clearing my cache every time before loading back into the game.  Thanks!

    Edited to Add:  I notice while testing on a vanilla game (but added back my Tray files and copies of my saves to test them) that the distortion is only present on a few of my child sims.  With one affected household, I thought to place a copy of that household I have saved in my library in a world to see if the issue was still present with the idea to swap out the household, and it still was for those same child sims.  This is very weird.  Why would the distortion remain even on a previous copy of a household I saved onto my Library almost a month ago?  Can households be corrupted the way lots can be?
