Hi all!

I keep encountering this issue and can't seem to find a thread for it anywhere.

When entering CAS and, for example, going to pick clothes but i want to filter by colour, i'm not seeing every colour available - i can only filter by Black, Brown, White, Grey and Purple and when filtering outfits in general its only offering brown. Until the reapers rewards were introducing i could filter all the same colours you can in in build buy but now i've only got very limited colour filtering when trying to pick an outfit for both genders and all ages

The issue also occurs when looking at stylised outfits - i can't filter at all on a male sim by colour and only by brown on a female sim.

I've already done a fresh install, it still started when the reapers rewards event did, and i've also removed all my mods but i still am only getting limited filtering.

  • Hi  @WitherOfOz 

    Try the following

    • Close the game
    • Rename Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old
    • Repair the game
    • Start the game. All your content will be gone now as the game created a new folder. All your saves/.. is still in the old folder so not to worry. 
    • Start a new save game
    • Check if you still have the error
    • Report back with your results for further steps on how to get your stuff back.

    Did this and it fixed the issue, so started slowly readding things

    after about 3 hours of going through everything, i found the cause to be Playa beach cc by syboulette, a build-buy set that for some reason is interacting with CAS. I'd missed this CC while going through my mod's because as it's build stuff, i didnt think it'd affect CAS
