Ideas
I have no idea what happened, please help!
I was playing my Sims game, saved and exited, and when I reloaded the next day, I had this glitch. All werewolves are either missing textures/colors or are completely black... all pets are all black. I have never seen this glitch in the past, and this was prior to updating my game, so it seemed to have come out of nowhere. I tried repairing my game and I have removed all CC and mods, and issue still exists.
The fact is, this bug is effecting the ENTIRE SAVE in every household and every lot and every world that has werewolves and/or pets. What can I do?

"Unfortunately the fix that was implemented with today's patch was not able to be made retroactive, so it won't fix already impacted game saves where the bug was occurring."
Apart from the fact that the "hotFix" is not yet visible to me in the EA APP, does this mean that the failed patch that did NOT fix our black Sims and animals will not get a new patch and we will now have to deal with the problem that YOU caused us with your penultimate, untested "update patch" alone?
Loading an old save file and loading our affected black families and animals into our library and reloading them into the game again is no real help, because a lot will get lost in the process, such as game saves, friendships and achievements already achieved, etc.

Another option would be to roll back your save to a previous version. That's what I'm going to try. It's definitely not ideal, we're going to lose progress, but it might be easier than removing and replacing all of the black pets.
Ugh. Didn't work. All the files in the save are corrupted with black pets. 🤨- LuvMySimz9 days agoSeasoned Ace
do you have a backup save? I have and am wondering, if using my backup save file would do any difference to our black issue. Haven't tested yet because I don't even have the recent patch showing up yet.
