Hi everyone just wondering if someone can help me please? My sim became pregnant while she was a mermaid and she was about to turn back to a human (after only keeping her hydrated with fresh water) then she had a baby and now she won't turn back into a human, she still has mermaid legs, and needs - I tried to send her for a swim and she doesn't have a tail just the scaley legs, I tried to eat another mermadic kelp (thought if I could turn her back into a full mermaid I could dry her out again haha) but it didn't work, now she is walking around with scales - can anyone please help? I think it may be a glitch in the game and I don't want to start my sim all over again as she has heaps of maxed skills - pleeeeeeeeeease help!!! Any help would be appreciated! :D

You Sim is stuck mid-transformation so he/she is not either human or mermaid, you need to get in the water and then cheat he/she into a mermaid then remove the occult and he/she should be normal again, it took me all day to work out so I hope this helps you all ☺️ (Cheats are underneath)You can add the Mermaid Trait to your Sim using the above testing cheats then typing Traits.Equip_Trait Trait_OccultMermaid. Similarly, you can return a Sim back to human by using the Traits.Remove_Trait Trait_OccultMermaid cheat.

I haven't really played with mermaids much yet but that does sound like a glitch. If you use mastercontroller you might be able to find an option there, or you could take her into CAS (dunno if you need MC for that again) and change her supernatural setting back to human there.

Please help! My Mermaid Won't Turn Back to Human!!!

Same thing happened with my pregnant mermaid yesterday!!
I also tried to get her a 2nd kelp, didn't work.
(She doesn't have mermaid scales, looks like a normal sim but has the needs of a mermaid)

But then a few sim days later she started to get the "been away from seawater too long" debuff again, this time she's not pregnant so I'm hoping she'll become normal again.

So maybe if you just keep her out of the sea for a while she'll go back to human.

**Edit**
She did not get back to normal after the 2'nd time either, I saw the "cure mermaid" action on her list, but the action erased itself before anything happened...
I just want her to stop being a mermaid already!!!

She doesn't have the "forever a mermaid" thing either. /=

I am not sure about this. I guess, it doesn't Work if you gave her the "eternal Mermaid" Price from the wishes fullfilled.

thanks for trying to help me :D I didn't give her that 'eternal mermaid' from the lifetime wishes list, I think it just glitched - lucky her husband was mastered in science - I just got him to clone her haha now he is raising a baby version of his wife - (bit creepy haha) I managed to save up heaps of lifetime points and bought him the 'freeze age' potion, so he can wait until she grows up until his age and then I'll have to marry them again - so spewing because she had like five maxed out skills - oh well guess I'll have to start her again hehe :)

Do you use any mods? If so, you should make sure that all of them are updated. Master Controller is a mod from Nraas.

I have heard that if you change a stuck mermaids scale colors, that the mermaid will reset and be fixed.
