    @MiguChen If you're using custom skins, you need to make sure to update to work with the newest patch. Check S4Studio if they have a batch fix now and if not, check with the creator.

    Hi! I've had this issue before, and I went to the graphic quality setting, changed the "sims" setting to "Very High" and it works. Hope it helps!

    @send2390 and it doesn't involve removing your cc. So it's a win win solution

    @send2390 This solved it for me. I recently changed from ultra settings to high on a relaunch of the game. I went into the family I was playing the day before and one of the sims was covered in white stripes/spots and I know it wasn't an issue with mods nor the cc (at least not outdated). I went searching and came across this - voila - I changed the sims to very high, problem solved immediately. I restarted for good measure but wanted to extend a sincere gratitude for you posting this! I would never have thought to try this. I thought for a second it may have been the recent change from ultra to high but thought, nahhh - that wouldn't cause one Sim to look crazy - apparently so. This should be posted under troubleshooting! Awesome 🙂
