[FIXED] [GTW] Mannequins wear the same outfits on lots

I bought a retail store today with two adult female mannequins. I designed two everyday outfits in CAS and dressed the mannequins so each was wearing a different everyday outfit. When the store was open and customers tried on one of the outfits, the other mannequin's outfit switched to the outfit the customer was trying on. (Both mannequins were now wearing the same outfit.) I had to have my sim go and change the second mannequin's outfit back to the second everyday outfit.

Also, I'm not sure if this is a bug or just a coincidence, but none of my customers have tried on the outfit on the second mannequin.

My game has no mods or custom content. I have the base game and GTW and my game is up to date with the latest patch.

Thanks!

    Having played on my GTW save file more today, I have discovered that the mannequins do not just change outfits when customers try on outfits, but that all mannequins on all lots (including my retail store and the premade retail stores in GTW) have identical outfits. For example, at JF&S Clothiers there are 4 female mannequins wearing the same female everyday outfit and two male mannequins wearing the same male everyday outfit.

    Furthermore, whenever I travel to my retail shop, my two mannequins revert to having the same outfit, no matter how many times I manually dress the mannequins.

    I'm not sure if I should change the title of this post, as I don't think it completely accurately describes the bug anymore.

    I took screenshots, which I will attach below.

    Also, I forgot to say in my original post that I play on a Mac that runs OSX Yosemite.

    JF&S Clothiers: 3 female and 2 male mannequins wearing the same outfits

     JF&S Clothiers: another female mannequin wearing the same outfit

    My two mannequins before I travel

    My two mannequins after I travel back to my store from another lot

    Thanks again!

  • Added and changed title a bit.

    If you think it's not accurate, please do change it to something that does 🙂

    Every time I travel to my store lot or come back from creating an outfit in create a sim for them, all but one of my mannequins has changed into the same outfit. I have to go back one by one to change them, but it just keeps happening every time the lot loads.

    I just discovered this problem and spent a few hours just testing my game and i'm pretty positive i know what's happening. Although i have no idea why. It seems like the game is always reverting to the first outfit in the category (swimwear, formal, everyday, etc.) when i go through a loading screen & sometimes even just build mode. For now until they fix this i'm going to be putting one of each outfit in my stores. I redid my entire store that way and i've been testing it. It seems to be working so far. I just have one outfit per category now for each gender.

    Sound a bit like they transfered the reverting to first everyday outfit bug to the mannequins

    That would make alot of sense because they said the game regards mannequins as sims just without artificial intelligence

    @skyskyxd This is a very old thread and was fixed in 2015.
