Occult sim gets the same name as other sims in CAS
This error is occuring after the Life & Death patch. The last update has been the November 7th one, and I believe my current game version is 1.110.311.1020. I do play with mods, but I'm not sure that's the problem.
I went to New Game and opened a family I've saved to my gallery, but when I went from the first sim selected -- a dog -- to a different sim -- a Werewolf occult -- the werewolf took the name of the dog. It also displayed the positions that show at the top of the screen (sit, lay, stand), although it wouldn't make him change to these positions. When I went to change his outfit, the werewolf's choices only showed Everyday and Walking, as a dog's would.
Going from the werewolf to a normal human sim and back to the werewolf, it made the werewolf take the human's name. It would do this with any sim pressed before the werewolf. After this, if I replaced this CAS family with a different gallery family, it would continue the name glitch, and then I usually just exit the game, try to find the conflict, then open the game again. And the cycle continues.
I know it's just with occults, because I restarted the game and did the same process with a gallery family that has no occults and nobody's name switched.
Basically, my user interface in CAS is broken, and I've tried everything. BetterExceptions runs as soon as I click the werewolf sim, but it can't find whatever mod is messing me up. I went through the updated list of Broken/Conflict mods and changed everything that may have been the problem, but nothing worked.
I've gone through many technical difficulties with The Sims 4 but I've always usually been able to fix it without asking for help. I really don't know what the problem is though.
@ThicSkinz This is known to be caused by outdated mods. Some causes are covered in https://answers.ea.com/t5/Mods-CC-Issues/MOD-RELATED-Sims-all-get-same-name-in-CAS/td-p/13907952 . This thread also covers this issue (because some people could get into CAS but same names happening was a side effect) https://answers.ea.com/t5/Mods-CC-Issues/CAS-infinite-loading-screen-after-23-07-update/m-p/13898789#M64491. If you have any Occult Hybrid mods, delete those and see Broken/Updated Mods & CC ; these broke recently, and it's possible that this is a side effect of that.
