Missing overlay button in CAS for ghost on PS4

With the new update on 10/22/24, in CAS creating a ghost there should be a button under the body sliders to be able to see colors PS4 has no button.

    Do you mean the button to turn ghost overlay on and off?
    Notice that basegame has no option to apply different colors to the ghost form. That may come with the expansion. I will have to check when that is out.

  • Just updated my PS4 and can confirm the ghost overlay toggle button is missing.

    Edit: Looks like there’s a shortcut though. It’s defined in the tiny print I can’t read from my couch lol. Hit R3

    Same issue with Xbox. No ghost overlay toggle button 

    edit: pressing the joy stick to toggle only seems to work for me when I turn on the control overlay. If the controls aren’t displayed, it randomises the sim instead.  Not sure if it’s supposed to be this way

    For Xbox you have to click A on the Sim first, then click on the right hand stick. If you don't click A first then it randomizes the Sim's appearance as @bluseadragon mentioned. I was really glad I could undo this step as I'd spent ages making the ghost of Avelina Lunvik.

    I had to go into Game Options>Other to add the controls overlay to tell me which button to use as I usually play with that off the screen.
