No skin overlays work

Skin overlay does not work (neither default overlays nor ones I add to my sim using skin detail). I have tried basically everything now.

Resetting the cache, resetting my sims files by removing everything from the Electronic Arts folder then adding nothing but the skin overlay cc in. I have also tried several other overlays. It doesn't work and it makes no sense - I have many other mods that work just fine. I have also verified my file integrity through steam.

If there's anything else I can try that I haven't mentioned doing yet, please let me know. Cheers!

  • @0c4598b0a907cca2 Try testing in a "clean" user folder:

    • Drag/move your whole Sims 4 folder from Document > Electronic Arts to your desktop. (Later, you'll add back most of this content, including UserSetting.ini)
    • Launch Sims 4 and reset your Options, including permitting CC.
    • Exit
    • Redownload one CC skin. Make sure it's a recent file and not listed anywhere in Broken/Updated Mods & CC as broken.
    • Install this in your newly created Mods folder
    • Launch Sims 4 and test in a new save.

    Let me know if this works. If it doesn't, please let me know what skin you were testing.
