Re: [LD] Grimborn trait distorts body of sims

@AbreuRosario So far only the faces have been reported

Would be interesting if this also happens to other folks or if it's maybe a problem off cheating the trait.

Can you reproduce this with a regular non-cheated sim too ?

    Hi @crinrict thanks for checking in. I went ahead and had a baby with grim as normal, and aged up the baby with birthday cakes until teen. As in in the other bug reports, the face is indeed scrunched while the body also looks skinnier than I would expect. I used Audrey Bloom (werewolves gallery sim) as the mom. And as @simvasion mentioned, I traveled across a few lots and indeed, the test sim got thinner each time. Screenshots below.

    After age up:

    Exactly how would you go about seeing if this trait distorts a body if you can't add it and take it away at will?  My copy of Nyon didn't have Grimborn and so I gave it to him with CheatUI and every time he is loaded (as in, save/load, trravel, enter/exit CAS), he gets worse.  His limbs and hips are so thin that grabbing them in a cas.fulleditmode tug flashes them red and makes them go to a more realistic size, suggesting that they're being pushed beyond the slider limit.  Of course, he gets scrunched back up again after leaving CAS, so it's kinda like a love-letter from the game going, "Thanks for trying, but he's going to permenantly be a disgusting mutant."

    Before you ask, no, I will not play without mods, unless you're willing to post footage of undergoing elective dental surgery with no anasthetic because that's what you're asking us to do every time you suggest.  You have enough evidence in the rest of this post that this is some straight-up developer-end garbage that's causing slider value tweaks on load.  Modders wouldn't selectively single out one sim to do this as a side-effect, it's too much work.  This is an EA mistake.

    Hi @crinrict looks like I have now had the face distortion happen to one of my teen sims that does NOT have the Grimborn trait. See pics below. Have been playing with her for weeks with no issue (or I didn't notice) but most recently she did get both the Mark of Edith and Ghost Whisperer traits (through gameplay not cheating) and I just noticed how bad her chin got. This looks just like what happens with the Grimborn trait but just happening to her face, and again she doesn't have nor has she ever had the trait.
