[LS] Romance Consultant: Outfit Misgendering Sim Based on Frame

What is your current game version number? Console 1.96 up to the latest patch for console.
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed?

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Downloaded Lovestruck EP.

‌

I changed the outfit using the cas modify career outfit cheat, but when he was promoted it just happened again. The masculine frame version of this blouse shows on the thumbnail under clothes tagged 'masculine' too, but when I dress him it's always this version that appears to be the feminine version. I would just like my sim to be able to get his proper outfit. I thought maybe the blouse was just weird, but noticed he'd also been give high heels both times too. I assume the career outfits are being wrongly assigned by frame and not gender.

Edit By Crinrict: Added Tag to Title. Please see this for more information on adding pack tags to your title.

    Looks like they finally fixed this in a recent update.

    On the other hand, every costume that came with EP16 is improperly Restrict Opposite flagged, and the Costume Box is improperly coded. Woosah. I'm just checking in on the Deformer Map post and popped over to check if this shirt was fixed.

    Cheers!

    For me it's still not fixed, he still changes into the same outfit with heels after promotion (I just got him promoted today and no change), but maybe it's stuck bc he has been in the career since before the update? Either way if they at least tried to fix something that's good, I just don't see the effect in my game.

    Still?! They "correctly" ROFramed flagged them. It should have forced your sim to switch clothes.

    Unless... we got that fix on PC and y'all didn't on console? I know y'all don't get patched the same time we do, it's possible y'all don't get the same fixes either.

    Can you console cheat on console? Want to try modifying your career outfit?

    The net says "[...] open the cheat console with all four back triggers (for console) and type in the [following] cheat while you are playing as the Sim whose outfit you want to modify. Then hit Enter or X/A to confirm the command."

    sims.modify_career_outfit_in_cas

    If you've never done this before, when CAS opens the UI will show as though it's on your Everyday outfit but display your Career outfit. DO NOT CHANGE OUTFIT CATEGORIES! That's just the way it shows because that's how the UI is built.

    If you want to check if your items actually got fixed, remove the top and bottom from your sim then reapply them. If you still see the wrong top in CAS it could very well mean that consoles never received that patch. I don't think there's a tuning file that controls career outfits that could break it like that, at least I hope not.

    If they're really still broken, you can pick anything you want to wear. It's possible you'll have to do this next promotion too if the outfit resets.

    When I get chance I'll grab the career in Live and see if it gives me the correct clothes.

    I know, I've changed his career outfit now several times lol. Just annoying that every time he levels up it goes back. But I honestly have no idea how to see the tags for items on the console backend, but the top looks the same to me, so I suspect it isn't fixed, unless it just naturally looks weird regardless.

    "But I honestly have no idea how to see the tags for items on the console backend"

    Unless I'm mistaken, there's no way. On PC/Mac we can use Sims4Studio.
