mermaids have no tails
I have a playable mermaid and for some reason she and none of the NPC mermaids have visable tails. They move their legs as in the tail animation underwater but sim like a normal sim above the surfac...

Nope the other simmers are right the tails are vanishing after playing the game for a couple weeks - my friend put up a picture of Triton King in the mermaid grotto and he has no tail and has been like that for a bit. Apparently they swim as if they have the tails but they don't have them. So I guess it depends on how long you play underwater - as so far the few Mermaods I have seen have tails, but I have been playing a landgame and have not even gone into a single cave or anything. I did have my sims swim down to the mermaid grotto just to see if mine had tails - they did - but that is the first time I had even been down there with my sims. My friend has been spending a lot of time underwater - so I think that is why. if it is, it should be a fixable issue but the gurus are going to need to run the game a lot using the under water areas to trigger that so they can duplicate the issue and get a fix.
Yep that is the exact issue I have. Mia azul(now a sim in my household) and Salty Seaworth both had tails the first time I met them but didn't after an in-game week or so. Triton King never had a tail in my game. They swim underwater as if they have tails(their legs are close together and move in unison like the tail animation but the tail isn't visible. I also have the issue that a previous poster mentioned that the mermaid swims like a normal mermaid above water for one leap but they starts swimming like a normal sims immediately after that.
At first I thought it was Twallans SP mod pushing the NPC mermaids to switch outfits or some other mod causing an issue but I removed all my mods reset all sims after removing the mods and even moved my sims out and back in from edit town and my mermaid still has no tail.
