Just saw this bug in my game were my vampires were missing the skin tones option. Now it could just be me but I was using console so I'm not sure. In the screen shot it's supposed to above the face I'm not sure what happened. https://twitter.com/Kyree80566174/status/1350908250523377664?s=20

  • @GAMMMAA8 which option did you use to take caleb to cas ? Do you also not hat skin tones on a new Sim ?

    EDIT: Do you have them if you click on the body instead of the face ?

  • I know this post is old, but this is still a thing. I’m on PS5, and it’s a consistent issue for me. Tried a new save, a few households, and even added a non-vampire sim to the household to check against. 

    Once the vampire sim exists in the game, skin tones seem to become completely unavailable for them without enabling testing cheats as well as CAS full edit mode. I entered CAS via the manage households menu, via gameplay, and via the modify in CAS cheat. I also checked both the facial menu and the body menu, no dice.

    It may be worth noting that on initial creation of a vampire sim, it seems skin tones are only available via the body menu, but on a normal sim can be accessed from both the full body and facial menu. On a standard preexisting sim, skin tones are only available from the facial menu after initial creation, never the full body menu. Maybe this is another issue, maybe not, but I can’t recall ever being able to access skin tones from the body menu on a preexisting sim, I’ve always had to use the facial menu. 

  • This is also happening to me, here's a picture on how it shows in my game, i play on PS4, if anybody has an answer and solution, please enter my profile and post on the topic i created, there i mentioned all the tries i've had, anyways... Here it is: 

    Also... I had to crop the image cause the format is too short on this website, but it's clear that skin tone option is not available there.
