[CC RELATED] Random Sims are shiny and have Texture Overlay

Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

• Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
• Tray Folder
• Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
• Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
• Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
• Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

It's so creepy

in this picture it's a user who uses mods but I get the same thing in my basegame

Merged your post. Please try suggestions above.

My sims have this weird reflective light all over their bodies and I don't know how to get rid of it. It only started happening recently. I would put those same clothes on other sims and it wouldn't happen before.

@Nianio23  I've moved your post to the Sims 4 tech section.

@Nianio23 Merged your post as well.

Could you also try the suggestions above.

Hi, following the recent patch a few of my female sims are covered in these splotchy white marks. Is this something I can fix or is it an error on EA's side?

I believe this has to be mod related, because I've read some reports on Discord and elsewhere that the skin details version of the 3D eyelashes mod is causing this problem and so are some custom content eyeliners and lipsticks. Another culprit could be the No EA Eyelashes mod.

I have a small handful of CAS custom content in my game, but I don't have this problem at all. It seems to me this is not a bug, but rather a case of badly made custom content.

thank you so much! i went back over all of my CC my sim was wearing and took off her skin details & other makeup and it does happen to be outdated CC because of the update! thank you for bringing that up and if anyone else has the same problem, then just use the “cas.fulleditmode” after the “testingcheats on” mode so you can see what CC your current sim is wearing might be broken :D
