9 years agoSkin glitch after updating
So I recentry updated the sims 4 to the latest patch, but when I got onto cas, this thing has happened where the skin has gone mad! I unonstalled a cc default skin I had, but to no avail. Help?
Same issue for me. All of the Sims were red/white & question marked except the child. I tried another household, same issue. I exited without saving and did a repair of the game. (I also launched the update for the Create a Sim Demo just in case it was related.) I reloaded the game and my Sim in play mode was normal, however the profile pic was still red/white/question-marked. I don't have any mods and don't use CC. Annoying because this is the game I started after the update in October corrupted my game - hope they issue a fix and I don't have to scrap this one, too.
Is it just on your existing game or also on a new one (testing purposes) ?
Could you post your Computer's DxDiag?
To gather a DxDiag on your computer, please follow the steps here: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/pc/how-to-gather-dxdiag-information/
You can attach the txt file to your post directly.
Could you possibly share a save file with me where this issue is occurring? Thanks!
Crinrict - just the existing game. Created a new game today and everything was normal in that game.
It seems to be only households in San Myshuno - no other worlds were affected that I could tell. And, not every household in San Myshuno - only a few. Some I have played and some I have not. Updated my post to include DxDiag (hope I did that correctly).
Update - RESOLVED
I posted in the Sims Forum also and rosemow suggested I try resetting my Sims 4 Folder. I did that and it fixed whatever the problem is/was - all of my Sims are all back to normal. I will still send you my Saves file if you want it SimsGuruNick in case it helps to figure out what happened to begin with - I have it saved in a separate folder on my desktop.
Try deleting your cache files: http://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2014/09/delete-cache-files/
Those are the most likely culprits
@ibshaun Sorry for the late reply but yeah, I'd definitely still love your save files so we can hopefully prevent things like this in the future. Thanks much!
No worries - how should I get it to you?
Please zip up this folder: documents\electronicarts\thesims4\saves and drop the file to this Mediafire-Link to upload.
Please make sure to name the zip file with your user name.
I'll make sure @SimGuruNick gets it
@crinrict Done - thank you!
Let me know if I did it correctly and if that's what you/he needed. Thanks again!
