Arms (females) become bigger on muscle mass/ fat sliders on min

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Nederlands
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
What is your current game version number? 1.45.62.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Expansion pack: Get to work, Get together and City living. Game pack: Outdoor retreat, Spa day, Dinning out and Vampires. Stuff pack: Luxery party stuff, perfect patio stuff, cool kitchen stuff, spooky stuff, movie hangout stuff, romantic garden stuff, kids room stuff and backyard stuff. Extra: The Sims 4 deluxe version and Holiday celebration stuff pack
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? In cas, only female sim's (teen to elder)
What happens when the bug occurs? Female sim's (teen to elder), when you slim down there arms and drag the muscle mass and/or body fat sliders down, the arms become bigger instead of smaller.
What do you expect to see? That the sliders work as they used to work and that arms become slimmer when your sim has low body fat or low muscle mass.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

I do not know if I'm the only one with this problem, but when I make my female sim arms slimmer and pull the sliders down, her arms become thicker instead of slimmer. The arms will only be slimmer when the two sliders are in the middle.
At first I thought it was because of my costum mods, but I have now removed them and the bug is still there. So it's up to the game itself.

Please fix this Sims creators!

  • Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

    Did you patch your game yesterday to see if that helps ?

    EDIT: Just tested and not happening in my game. Could you maybe post a video of what you're seeing ?
