[FIXED] [GTW] Alien skin tone missing

Before the new update there was a total of 9 different skin tones for alien sims. Now there is only 8, which has removed the skin tone I use the most for my alien sims. The skin tone is still there when I click faces but absent from the skin tone tab. 

Sorry about the 3rd picture being in Spanish, I found it online.

    We were contacted by the Aliens and they have helped us reinstate their missing Skin Tone color in Create a Sim. Now all 8 Alien skin options are visible again.

    Fixed in Patch 1.7186/ 1.38

    So because there didn’t seem to be a fix I did some poking around.

    sim 1: no alien skin tones (except for the default weird colours)

    sim 2, alien: alien skin tones, no regular skin tones.

    sim 3, mermaid form: all skin tones including alien.

    sim 3, non-mermaid form: no alien skin tones

    sim 4, vampire: no alien skin tones

    sim 5, spellcaster: has access to alien and vampire eyes!!?? And alien skin tones. 

    can we just fix this so all skin colours are accessible for all sims? Please? 

  • I am also experiencing this issue, however I am missing ALL alien skintones. I have a half alien and three full aliens, and all of them only have access to human skintones. I can only get the correct skintones from the faces tab also, but this is not a fix because it deletes my Gen 4 genetics. This has also broken my default replacement, that replaced all alien skintones with TS@ minty green color. 

  • I am having an issue where all my skin tones are gone, Completely. Also, I noticed in one of the images added here that someone was able to get CC skin tones. How did you do that?
