I took a closer up screenshot and circled it. I hope that helps. I'm not exactly sure how to describe it, but it covers the sim's entire skin and up close the markings look like discolored boxes with dots in the middle of them. I had this happen to one other sim but it's so subtle I didn't notice right away, then months later it appears on a different sim. I compared this one to some other played houses and these markings aren't showing up on others. Unfortunately I don't have any screenshots of this sim before the markings appeared. I have a goofy selfie in game, but the file was too large to fit here for comparison.
Also, as for graphics they automatically are set to ultra with sim detail at very high.
- crinrict6 years agoHero+@erinmaxwell Looks a bit like this: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/PS4-Houndstooth-Pattern-on-Sims-Skin/m-p/8635441 ? (that's console though so I don't want to mix the two at this point).
Does it appear on all skins or just certain ones ? Could you upload the Sim that has the issue to the gallery and test in a fresh save to see if it also appears ? If it does, could you give me the name of the Sim so I can try it in my game ? I tried to do a fresh save and pulled him from the public gallery, still had the same skin markings showing up. I also changed the skin tone to see what would happen, and when I selected a darker one I saw exactly like the issue you shared with me where the skin was covered in that extreme pattern. I tried a lighter tone and it still happens, though it's harder to see. The sim's name is Forrest Kobayashi.
@crinrict I feel like such an idiot now; I didn't have the uncompressed sim box in the game setting clicked, but as soon as I put that on and restarted the game the sim's complexion returned to normal. Thank you so much for your time!
- crinrict6 years agoHero+@erinmaxwell Glad to hear you found the cause.
