[FIXED] Base game male hair missing swatches

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.81.72.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? University, Island Living, Get Famous, Seasons, Cats and Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get to Work. Realm of Magic, Strangerville, Jungle Adventure, Vampires, Dine Out, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat. Moschino, Laundry Day, Fitness, Bowling Night, Vintage Glamour, Backyard, Romantic Garden. Movie Hangout, Cool Kitchen, Perfect Patio, Luxury Party, Industrial Loft Kit
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go to CAS, make a male sim and check if the hair is missing any swatches.
What happens when the bug occurs? Male hair missing swatches (teen to elder). Kids and toddlers aren't affected.
What do you expect to see? The hair having all 24 swatches.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

An easy update I assume. I just wanted to point this out because the hair still hasn't been updated.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go to CAS, create a male, equip the hairstyle
    What happens when the bug occurs? The hairsyle yfHair_GP05Twists that has been added to the Base Game recently lacks the new hair colour swatches when equipped on a male sim. (at least in my game, where the original pack from where this hairstyle comes is missing)
    What do you expect to see? The hairstyle should be available in all colour swatches not just the old ones.
    Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.

    The colours were missing from day one but I thought that others might report that but nothing changed. This is why I do that now. I guess therefore that this issue only occures if you miss Parenthood otherwise it should've been noticed already by other players. Female sims have all the old and new swatches with this hairstyle btw.

  • @t00sa @crinrict Oh sorry guys I honestly checked thrice if somebody yet reported this and found nothing and now here you are. I'm very sorry.

    @Learyone No worries. There's so many reports, if you don't find the correct search terms, it's easy to miss something.
  • @t00sa I think it’s because you don’t have Parenthood. I do and the game still shows the male version as being part of that pack, and it has all 24 swatches. Then I disabled it with origin and it looked like your screenshot.

    @ValiantRedKnight yeah, you're right. This hair is one of those dlc hairs made base game. They probably just missed this hair version when they were updating the new hair swatches, and most players wouldn't notice the difference because they have Parenthood.

    I would accept this as solution but one hair won't make me buy a whole pack to fix this XD
