Vampire Eyes Revert to Human, Vampire Face Details Removed
Loading into an existing save, my played Occult Sims that use Vampire eyes and Vampire face details on their main "human" form have reverted to Human eyes and their Vampire face details have been removed. Vampire Dark Forms and Mermaid Forms correctly have the Vampire face details and eyes. I've seen this issue in multiple savefiles.
Previews and thumbnails of Occult households using Vampire Face/Eyes when viewed in Manage Households and Manage Worlds also show incorrectly with Human eyes and are missing their Vampire face details (cheeks, sockets, brows).
Mixed results when loading multi-Sim Occult Households: Some load correctly, others revert to Human eyes and removed Vampire face details.
What's most troubling is I can't fix this issue myself in CAS. I used testingcheats true > cas.fulleditmode > Modify In CAS to reset my Sim. After accepting my corrective changes, my Sims do not retain the Vampire eyes or face details that I reset in CAS, and reverts again to Human eyes and removes Vampire face details.
Downloading the same household from my Gallery and merging into the existing bugged household does correctly keep the details I originally set on the Gallery Sim. Placing my Gallery Sim, exiting, repairing and restarting my game loads the newly placed Gallery Sim correctly. It's my old played households that are affected and won't save corrections made in CAS.
I hope they fix this soon. It’s happening to me on PC with witches (so all occults) its so small yet it really annoys me because the new expansion makes more sense for occult eyes and I’m glad others are noticing. Do the devs know?
Fogity's CAS unlock mod for occult eyes doesn't fix this bug, even when playing a human Sim.
