Body Shape changes in Live Mode

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC

What is your current game version number? 1.102.190.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except Journey to Batuu
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Use a CC Body preset on a female sim then go into live mode with her 50% chance the body shape and ear shape will change to a default.
What happens when the bug occurs? All CC body shapes revert to a default one.
What do you expect to see? The same body shape and ear shape that are selected in CAS to show in Live mode.

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

I use CC body shapes and they were working fine but yesterday or the day before they would change to an entirely new EA preset. This doesn't happen to all sims just random female sims with CC body presets.

    Hi @meggyreap This is likely to be caused by CC or a mod. One possibility (of many) is the MCCC's Appearance template is overriding; you can set that to "manual" or remove the CAS module entirely if you don't use it for other things.

    If it doesn't turn out to be that, the next thing I'd be suspect of is older body presets, before 2022, and any sliders before March 2023. Try removing those (and deleting localthumbcache). And, of course, anything you added recently.

    Beyond that, you might need to try removing other items by category. If you find a category where the problem goes away, you could add items from that category back in gradually.

    If you manage to identify a culprit or class of them, I'm always interested to know what it is!
