[FIXED] [GRO] Tank top visual distortion (bad polygon?)

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? 1.96.365.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Put the white tank top from Growing Together on any sim, with either feminine or masculine frame, and turn them to face the right
What happens when the bug occurs? There is an obvious visual distortion (weird spike) on the sim's back - looks like a bad polygon
What do you expect to see? No weird spike on the sim's back
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

Sim gets a mesh glitch when wearing this tank from Growing Together. Have tried on both a female frame and male frame, female and male sims. Glitch is present on all frames/gender combinations.

  • I just came to report the exact same issue!

    Doesn't matter what body size/shape your sims has.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Enter CAS, select the Growing Together camisole and turn the sim around.
    What happens when the bug occurs? During animation a part of the shirt on the back right near the underarm stretches noticeably different to the surrounding parts.
    What do you expect to see? The shirt should move as a cohesive unit.
    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? Neutral/Not Sure 

    Using modding tools I've identified that it's a single vertex with the wrong weight modifiers assigned causing it to move contrary to the surrounding parts.

  • So many of their recent CAS assets have had so many issues. I don't remember seeing this amount of easily fixed CAS bugs back in like 2016

    @MarsCBG I don't have much experience in Blender, but I quickly took it into Blender and saw that there was a vertex in that area that was incorrectly assigned to the head and neck vertex groups, and missing from the right side clavicle vertex group.

    @unicornpiggiezyeah that's the one I was talking about, it's actually three vertexes that are taking up the exact same space. I also don't know much about blender but I was able to assign them the missing vertex groups spine 0, spine 1, spine 2 and right clavicle with the correct weight modifiers for each group. I'm not sure if we're allowed to link to mods here but I put it up on curseforge under my other username gay4space.

  • Happens in Live Mode too, particularly when interacting with an infant. Other times is less noticeable.
