Hi, I recently updated my Sims 4 game and the skin details don't appear to be working. When I try to change the skin details of a pre-made sim from the gallery with custom content (or any new sim randomized in CAS), the changes only save to the everyday outfit, but for the other outfits (formal, athletic, sleep, etc.), the skin details with custom content are not saved. I discovered that I could make the same skin detail adjustments for each outfit category, but that's just tedious. This hasn't happened to me before, and I think it's due to the latest patch. If anyone has experienced this same issue or can bring insight into the situation, your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hm. I only noticed this if you randomized the traits of a Sim. If you did that, your skin details disappear. For me, at least.

Lots of trouble since update. Man comes out of shower and spins and spins and spins into his clothesToddler walks around with bowl stuck in hand. Woman can't make a meal giving indication she can't get to the cutting board.

@ilovebunnys65 and @AHolyToilet You probably have broken Mods or CC. There is a thread that keeps track of the content broken by yesterday's patch here: https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/960932/broken-updated-mods-cc-island-living-june-2019-patch/p1@ilovebunnys65 your specific problem with the glowing skin could be a skin that needs updating or broken 3D eyelashes. These aren't on the list but, I have seen people reporting issues on another forum. Unfortunately, they didn't post the name of the broken skin.

I just found out that there is a discussion for this on the Help site: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-A-Tattoos-and-Skin-Details-don-t-apply-to-all/m-p/7955447#M91943

It seems to be an issue specific to Mac users.

Everything is pretty much broken in my game after the new update came out, especially some of my favorite mods. It's infuriating to have to deal with this.

Lol, after the update, the only things I noticed so far was that there are more lag issues during gameplay and the tea along with the coffee appliances are no longer working properly after being "emptied" by Sims. Instead, they continue to blow green smoke as if the appliances were not cleaned out. This started right after the recent update. I have no mods. Also, the long fancy round ballroom curtains keep clipping off when applied to any kind of a window. I also reported all this on the Answers HQ forum.
