For some strange reason when I equip my Sim in sleepwear, they will change into something completely different than what I assigned them to wear. Also I am aware that Sims will alternate their clothes daily so that isn't the culprit.😕mileyhappy: Now I know I am using the right clothing too under sleepwear, but when I put on a certain outfit for bed they will change out of it as if it isn't the correct one. Hopefully this will be looked into as well. What can i say i'm a roleplayer lol. Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Tag

Hello,This bug isn't limited to sleepwear. Often when I'm starting an athletic interaction, the game INSISTS on changing to "Athletic 2" even when the sim was already in "Athletic 1". If during the interaction I use "testingcheats true" and then go into "Modify in CAS" while the Sim is still working out, it will incorrectly show the "Athletic 1" outfit button as active, while the Sim is actually visibly wearing the second outfit.The game just seems to become confused about which outfit the Sim is wearing if there is more than one variant. I've stopped using more than one outfit per category simply because of this bug, since it makes multiple outfits unpredicable (you can't safely choose which one you want to wear anymore).

Hi @Amy6491 that's supposed to be fixed actually Tagging @SimGuruNick Also tagging @Phantomlover1717 for awareness

There is an outfit bug: if you have multiple Everyday outfits, the game will always force your sim to change to "Everyday 1" (no matter if you already wore another Everyday outfit) when you attempt to go to work. What is the point of multiple outfits if I can only wear the magical first to work?

It's not just the party outifts it all outfits, they revert to outfit 1, after traveling. I did not have this problem until the pool patch. When they arrive on the community lot the outfit I assigned then is greyed out, I have to click on another outfit, click back on the the outfit I assigned but traveling back they arrive in outfit 1, I took out mods still happening and Yes I have more that 3 outfit assigned for each outfit except formal. I have aready, clean out cache files, repair game, problem is still there.

Hi, thank you I will try that now and get back to you

Added ... but

Is it an outfit that you have never assigned at all or do they have multiple and it chooses the wrong one ? Does it happen with one specific outfit or all of them ?

Are you using custom content ?

Yes I had just used the drawer to add another set of PJ's/underwear (4 sleepwear options now) and when it was time for bed I went to the drawer and assigned the new sleepwear, but she changed out of it into another set. So I got her out of bed and put it back on, but each time she changed out of it as if it weren't sleepwear. Also it was right under the sleepwear options in CAS.
It seems to happen with two of the outfits one is a tank top and P.J. pants and the other is just bra and panties and she will change into the other outfit which is under those style type sleepwear options (the ones that come as a set)
It's as though the game thinks she's wearing everyday clothes or something.

I felt this could be bug should be included in this list cause its very similar. Every time my sim goes into work it wears an outfit thats not even in any of the selections. I THINK this started when I used the CAS system.

Work outfits are not on the list of choosable outfits. That's just their work outfit. Similar to how SIms 3 worked in the beginning.

Hi there..

There seems to be a bug with the sleepware. If there is more than one sleepware outfit for the sim and a particular sleep outfit is chosen to be worn for the night to sleep, the sim still changes the sleep outfit when it goes to bed. It is a little annoying, as I would prefer my sim to sleep in the sleepware I choose for that night.. hope this can be looked into..

I have actually already reported a variant of this but it seems that nobody noticed: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/Bug-quot-Everyday-1-quot-outfit-enforced-when-going-to-work/m-p/3443547 (same bug, other outfit affected)
