Design-Sim teen-adult-elder look the same

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? 1.6.134.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Design a sim or family
What happens when the bug occurs? Babies and children look Rudy they are supposed to, but the only way to tell teens and aging adults apart is the hair color
What do you expect to see? Teens, adults, and elders appearing how they used to look
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Installed the two most recent patches and eco-living

‌

I noticed after installing eco-living, when I try to design a sim family, teens and older adults (including elders) look the same with the exception of the hair color.  Body looks the same as well as skin, with no change in body structure.  Sims already in the game will age-up appropriately but it’s hard to tell my new sims apart.

    @jthelber For me their bodies still change. The difference has always been very sutble but fo you feel it's worse then before the patch ?

    I think something is different because I wasn’t looking for glitches and when I had to create a new family, I remembered thinking “Why isn’t the look changing?” and I never thought that in the past.  But if it’s supposed to be subtle with just the hair color changing slightly and no changes with the body, face, clothes or hair style, I stand corrected and will happily withdraw a fake bug 🙂

    @jthelber It was never very good in my eyes but there was a bug once where something changed and they really didn't change at all anymore. I can't find that thread atm though so I need to postpone to tomorrow

    Does it matter if it's a n occult Sim or human ?

    I haven’t tried an occult sim, so I don’t know.  With the family I created and moved into another house that I visit, the elementary school kids aged up and look like adults and the teens aged up to adults and I couldn’t tell the difference from before and after.

    The following shows the progression between teen, young adult, and adult.  The fourth picture would have shown everything identical except the hair.

    @jthelber I agree that the face is as good as identical but to me the hips look different to me.

    Could you upload the 4th pic to an new post ?
