It is definitely a good temporary solution - at least for PC. But it won't help console players and it is also not a real fix of the bug, so i don't hit the "accept as solution" button.
I still hope the Devs will fix this quickly, It doesn't look like a big thing to fix this and it is immersion breaking for months now.
But thanks for sharing this CC.
I haven't kept track of the dates but there have been at least 4 updates to The Sims 4 since October. The most recent was just a week or so ago. Although I see 19 pages of user comments on this forum the problem still has not been addressed by the developers of the game.
Today this site asked me to take a survey on my experience with AnswersHQ. I told them I was dissatisfied and that it was all a bunch of chatter if the EA game developers never look at or respond to it.
I've logged this error three times from within the EA app, I've tried repairing the game a few times and uninstalled and reinstalled the game once. I'm not interested in fixes from the user community; I just don't have the energy. I just want to play the game with the gameplay I'd become accustomed to. BTW, they also :"deprecated" the cheat for free real estate with the October update, but that's for another thread. Looking at naked cartoon people isn't important to me, it's the lack of response from the developers that encourages me to finally find something else to do. They could at least let us know they're working on it or that it's a permanent change to the game for the sake of children who play and figured out how to turn off the pixelation.

@CptAhab77 Communication is the key. And this is also important in a forum. EA decided against a ticket-system where you can send a mail and get an answer. They made it this way. That's ok in general, but they still should give their customers regular feedback. This forum is for bug-reports and if they would write "we were able to reproduce the problem and can confirm it is a bug and we are trying to fix it". people would be patient. I reported this bug in October and in November a Community-Manager wrote that he forwarded it to the team (which is great but not in all threads you get this messages). But i still don't know if anyone of the devs is working on it or if it even made it's way on a "ToDo-List".
Regarding your "free real estate cheat" - They released updated versions of some houses of the basegame in the galery with the latest update and for one of them i used this cheat to place it. so i think it is still working.
I still hope for a soon fix. It breaks the gameplay because the behavior of the sims changed, some interactions don't make sense that way and it also looks ugly even under the censor grid and i think it has to do with changes for the life & death occult cas stuff.
