trying to make base game sim but it is tagged with packs

I am trying to make a base game sims family and even though I have filtered every single category by base game, the finished family ends up tagged with werewolves and city living. I have no idea what content is causing this because I only used things that said they were base game. How do I figure out what I need to remove?

  • @KiriEleson It's probably one of the swatches. Try figuring out which sim it is by uploading everything to the library to save your family and then deleting one by one. then figure out the outfit and the swatch from there.

    Wait--so do you mean that a base game item might have a non-base-game swatch? Oof. That sounds like a lot of work. I'll try it and report back in case anyone else has this issue.

    Thank you so much, crinrict. You really are a hero. lol I narrowed it down to the mother and then just removed one outfit at a time and saved. It took a few, but it worked. :-) I still don't understand why the offending items were tagged as base game, but now I know how to fix it.

    @KiriEleson The game doesn't offer any mechanics to tag swatches separately in CAS so when you filter by base game, it just gives you all the swatches.

    Glad you found the culprit.
