Having A LOT of cas issues with werewolves

Firstly I'll say that I turned off mods, removed mods, repaired my game and kept the mods out, and I'm still having these problems.

I'm having a lot of strange distabalising CAS issues with werewolves and I can't untangle what's-what enough right now to be able to make a proper bug report.

--Freckles, other skin details, and tattoos applying ontop of the werewolf form's coat, and then unable to be removed despite removing them from their human form (linked or unlinked).

--Werewolf coat becomes 'the void'. Completely dark black textureless void.

--Sim does not remove clothes when entering tattoo mode.

--No clothing, tattoo, hair, makeup, accessory, etc. options visible on the right side pannel no matter which category I click. Just blank.

--Clothing category heading gets superimposed over the UI while in paint-mode, making it impossible to click the back arrow.

--Sim's name, pronouns, aspiration, traits, etc. are all blanked out. Even when loading that same sim again from my gallery they appear with all that information missing. After a game restart or by approaching the gallery from outside of CAS I can see that the gallery version of that sim does still have their information. Furthermore, whilst this happened to a sim I was editing in CAS I clicking onto one of the dogs in the household and found the dog's personality info was also missing but they showed a sim-version of that info pannel (with aspirations and stuff).

--After painting a werewolf's coat and exiting paint mode I see grainy, artifacting lines along the joins of the mesh, which can be painted over to remove them after re-entering paint mode, but which re-appear again after exiting paint mode.

--On the werewolf form, tops on fem-frame sims bulge out around the waist area in a sharp, distorted way. Tops on masc-frame sims bulge out around the belly area in a similar way. Does not happen on the human form.

--Some of the colour swatches in paint mode do not produce the colour they should be, ie. there is an orange one that produces a sort of green-brown, and there is a pale grey one and produces a dark brown.

Not all of these problems present themselves all at once, but if I click around in CAS enough (editing outfits, paint mode, switching between werewolf and human form) for long enough then CAS starts to become increasingly unstable as more and more of these issues appear.

I have these problems with CAS-made werewolves and with werewolves I'm made using the 'traits.equipt' cheat and with werewolves I've downloaded from the gallery. I have not tested putting a sim through a gameplay-induced transformation (ie, having Rory or Greg or someone bite my sim). I can test this if anyone thinks that information will help, but currently I'm just very worried about the stability of my game and I don't want to touch it right now. But I can, if anyone needs me to experiment more.

I don't think uploading my saves to EA will help because the problems still occure even if I click 'new game' and make a CAS-werewolf. So it's not specific to any save that I have; it's just my whole entire game, somehow. I haven't tried a complete uninstall and I don't really want to unless I can be convinved that it would fix anything that a repair wouldn't catch.
