cas background broken

Hello,

 

I am experiencing a persistent graphical and UI issue in Create-A-Sim that started after a recent update.

 

The Issues:

 

There is a large, glowing green/blue swirl effect covering the CAS background and the Sim.

 

The Trait selection bubbles are completely missing or showing as empty squares/question marks.

 

What I have already tried:

 

Testing without Mods: I moved my entire Mods folder to the desktop and deleted localthumbcache.package. The game worked perfectly, so I know the issue is a mod.

 

Partial Cleanup: I have already removed More CAS Columns, UI Cheats Extension, default eyes, font replacements, and CAS lighting mods.

 

Cache and Repair: I have cleared my cache and ran the Repair tool in the EA App multiple times.

 

GShade: Toggled GShade off and on, but the green swirl persists when the Mods folder is active.

 

Current Status: Even after removing the obvious UI culprits, the glitch returns as soon as I put my remaining mods back in. I am having trouble identifying which stealth mod or override could be causing this specific green background artifact. Has anyone else seen this specific green swirl lately?

 

System Specs: OS: Windows Game Version: 1.110.265.1030 (January 2026 Update)

  • update: i have figured out that the broken cc or mod is in my build buy folder, but i have no idea what it could be. does anyone know of any build buy objects that are broken after the most recent update?
