Re: [WORKAROUND] Hairline cracks on face and clothing (Nvidia)

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? 162.67.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All current packs.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Zoom in on the arms of a female sim when wearing one of the seasons Dresses
What happens when the bug occurs? It's more like a mesh glitch. There's a hairline crack on both arms.
What do you expect to see? No hairline crack on the mesh.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

‌

There's a thin, hairline crack in the mesh that I saw when I zoomed in to Shine's arms. The first 2 images that I attached show the problem on both arms. The 3rd image that I attached has the highlighted dress that is the issue. This is Seasons related.

EDIT: I've just been into CAS, and it's not limited to that dress. It appears that every full body dress, both long and short, and every top, has that issue.

    @crinrict  I added the images to the original post with the problem areas circled...and it's a lot worse, it turns out. The first image is a bikini top, and the second image is a top with sleeves. I've circled the problem areas.

    Yes, my laptop's card is an NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 1650. It's recently updated, and this machine is still on 1809.

    I'll try this work-around, because I have the same issue, but it is everywhere in my game. My computer is really top notch, NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti graphic card.

    When I say everywhere, I mean in CAS, on arms, on chest, on face, ears... but also on live mode objects, foundation...

    I will try and see if it worked.

    Ok, so I have done what was asked here, and I cant see the difference, still having those lines in the foundation, but I havent seen it on sims themself, so it might have help, but the lines are still in live mode, on some objects.

    See attached, the black foundation with horizontal lines, and on the other screenshot, look at the fireplace, there is a line that kind of separate it in half.

    @Francoisf30 Unfortunately, you're pictures are way to dark. Can you do them during the day and then encircle the issue.

    To me as you also have it on build mode issues and the workaround doesn't work, it might be best to create a new thread in tech for troubleshooting help.

    @crinrict I have the same issues, weird seams on some of sims' faces, though it seems to only occur with one specific base game hairstyle (the male wavy flip or whatever its called). I have tested this with and without mods & CC and it is ever-present, I am running a Windows 10 based PC with an Intel HD graphics program.
