Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? By loading a new game with a ghost and having the ghost change outfits.
What happens when the bug occurs? When loading into the world for the first time and when changing outfits, the large picture of the sim at the bottom left of the screen will sometimes show a living sim instead of a ghost.
What do you expect to see? I expect ghost sims to always be ghosts everywhere their picture appears.
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? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. It happened after the latest update in which ghosts where added to the game.

This bug has appeared four times for me. Once when I loaded into a new game with a ghost. Again when my sim changed clothes to perform dancing Infront of the tv, again when my sim changed clothes to attend the flea market, and lastly when my sim changed into her cold weather outfit.

  • @QueenPandamonium Please move your mods folder to the desktop, delete Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 > localthumbcache, repair your game and then try again on a backup of your save to see of you can duplicate the issue on a game with no mods.


    If the issue persists with no mods/cc, please also add some pics to your report.

    Going to move this to game issues until tested on a vanilla game.
