[CC RELATED] [SE] Sims wear random shoes instead of barefeet/socks

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.68.154.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? When entering a house with the Taming of the Shoe sign set to no shoes
What happens when the bug occurs? It doesn't have Sims taking off their shoes, just changes them to boots or other shoes.
What do you expect to see? If you have it set to no shoes, Sims entering your house should either be barefoot or wearing socks if they came with socks.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Snowy Escape Pack downloaded.

‌

I know it just came out so maybe I'm not setting something correctly, but I have a Taming of the Shoe sign hanging in my house and have it set to "no shoes". Instead of taking their shoes off and either being barefoot or wearing just socks, sims entering my house all changed into women's fashion boots. Although it was funny to see guys wearing them too, I don't think that is how this is supposed to work. Am I missing a setting or something to have them actually be shoeless when they enter with my sign set?

    I removed all custom content from the game and with a fresh one started I placed a sim in a lot on Mt Komorebi. At first she walked in (wearing outer wear) and did not remove her shoes, even though once again it was set for no shoes. I toggled it to slippers and she changed into them. Changed outfits and sure enough each one had slippers. I then toggled the setting to no shoes, had her walk outside then back inside and she removed her shoes and walked around barefoot! Did this a few times with various outfits and had her move away from the house and come back and sure enough she removed her shoes every time, so it seems something in the custom content files are causing issues with the removal of the shoes.

    No unfortunately it’s not cc or mods. My sims are doing the same. I play primarily on PS4 and my niece plays on Xbox and same thing. It’s a bug

    Nope it’s a glitch it’s happening on console as well and we can’t get cc or mods

    @KeDay21 I've outlined two other reasons why this is happening.

    If yours is not cc related and none of the other reasons, please create a new thread, posting pictures.

    The OPs issue was cc for sure.

    Ive already sent the pictures to EA or wherever that twitter feed said, but I was just letting people know it isnt a cc or mod issue, its the update issue

    @KeDay21 A new thread would be helpful, cause this thread is for the cc issue.

    When doing so, provide the following info

    1. Is your Sim an Occult ?
    2. Does it happen to active Sims or NPCs visiting your house ?
    3. Is this a save started before or after the patch ?
    4. Do you see the shoe change animation and they still are in shoes or no animation ?
    5. Are they random shoes or the ones your Sims normally wear ?
    6. For PC/Mac: Did you ever have cc shoes on this save (this is for anyone else that's not on console and not being cc)
    7. Is it happening for all outfits or certain ones ?
    8. Is it all Sims or just some ?
    9. Do slippers work or is it just no shoes ?
    10. If you use the wear shoes option, after they entered the house, do they change shoes back to their normal ones ?

    11. Please include pictures here as well so people don't have to go hunt for them on twitter when trying to see if they have the same.

    Probably some footwear wrongly categorised.  Even EA occasionally categorises their stuff wrongly - slips through the net.

    ME TOO!
    Wearing random sliper in Sliper indoor mode and Wearing Random shoes in Remove shoes indoor GREAT!
    Hope fix it soon.

    This seems to still be an issue for me and I played without any mods in my game. Does anyone know if this glitch is being looked into yet?

    @DoodleSmack32 No mods or also no cc ? This has been proven to be a cc issue in the past.

    As said above, if you have issues with no mods/cc at all, please create a new thread. I posted some question above that would be good if you could include the answers to.

    Ok so I haven't had this happen to me until just suddenly. I have some cc in my game but I hadn't added or removed anything into/from Mods folder recently and just as I was playing, suddenly my sim changed into some random boots when she went outside. Like it's been fine since always and suddenly all of a sudden this exact behaviour described by others happens to me too. So I went and allowed shoes indoors and then soon after changed it back to no shoes allowed and then it worked just fine again. 

    If this is happening to you, maybe try doing like I did and see if it fixes the issue? Doesn't hurt to try. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
