Re: [FIXED] Baby icon/household picture different colour than Sim

All babies are black in my Sims-4 game. It looks like there is a cheating pandemic in the Sims world! 😛
It doesn't matter the skin tone of their parents, all babies are black. It looks weird in some cases. Babies should share their parents DNA.

    Oh no, I noticed the Sim icon in game is black too, but since it’s an issue for many people I just ignore it, I hope there’ll be a fix soon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    We have fixed an issue that made Babies’ Skin Tones not match in different parts of Gameplay, like Interaction queues.


    Fixed in Patch 1.75.125/ 1.42
