Re: [FIXED] Glasses frame distorted
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? 1.108.335.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? NONE. Nuked for troubleshooting.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Wear any pair of glasses, but BG's yuAcc_GlassesRoundThin appears to show the issue with most Face Presets and with most Preset Sims.
What happens when the bug occurs? The glasses distort.
What do you expect to see? <ponders> A big ole bag of Sour Skittles and NOT THIS.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes but I nuked my USER FOLDER at least a dozen times during my troubleshooting. I doubt anything survives my Shift + Delete surprise attack.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes.
Please describe the patch or change you made. I believe this began with Update 7/23/2024 1.108.289.1030 and it is still present as of Update 7/26/2024 1.108.335.1020.
The problem is in the EXE files. I've troubleshooted this for the past 18 hours. I should be sleeping. The problem is in the EXE files.
If I replace my 1.108.335.1020 EXE with my backed up 1.107.151.1020 EXE, the problem goes away. Other features don't work properly but the glasses don't distort.
By process of elimination, the problem is in the EXE files. I went through the patch package files. I butchered my INSTALL FOLDER for science, let's put it that way. I could explain to you step by step in detail how I troubleshooted this and how I butchered my INSTALL FOLDER to verify it but I'd prefer no one try to replicate what I did to see it for themselves then have to reinstall their game if they accidentally delete or forget where something goes.
Pass this on to whomever needs to see it in the event they don't already know, and merge this report with this [OPEN] report https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-Glasses-frame-distorted/td-p/13895290, thanks.
Cheers! No screenshots this time.
I need a vacation.
After fixing the spine distortion https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-Spine-distortion-on-male-Sims-with-female-frame/td-p/13895791, I told myself I wouldn't prioritize this and then I did just that. BTW, can we get the spine thing patched officially please? You just need to restore or properly modify the 18 Deformer Maps listed in my mod. I simply restored the files from my backup. Feel free to check the mod!
