Sims turn completely Black after Customization
I was worried this would happen as soon as they said tattoos could be customized. When I save a sim that's had anything done to them in paint mode, if I drop them in CAS again the skin or fur turns completely black and is unable to be corrected. This happens with pets and their fur and werewolves and their fur. I've asked for this bug to be fixed before, and there was never a solution. And now it's affecting sims with custom tattoos too.

Whenever the male sim in my household travels to a lot outside of his home, his voice defaults to a high pitched female sim voice and his clothing changes to options that aren’t in his presets created from CAS. Right clicking and resetting doesn’t help, only going into CAS and coming out seems to fix it. I don’t see this issue in any other saves, just this one. I tried moving him out of the household and into a different lot, restarting, and repairing the game multiple times, but the same issue persists. Sim is NOT wearing any CC, only mods installed are PandaSim’s Better Birth Mod and the Faster Homework Mod. It doesn’t seem to be affecting any other sim in that same household. Adding images of his outfits from when he’s at his home lot and then what happens when he travels.

With the last update (Patch 1.116, July 1st), many of the lines for the Melodic Voice have been changed to a different one, but not nearly close to all. So the characters keep changing between voices all the time, which is inconsistent, distracting, and overall bad for our gameplay experience. Besides, the Melodic Voice as we know it has been with us for over ten years now, and not only have many of us grown used to it, it is an intrinsic part of the personality to many of our beloved characters. I for one don't want to see it retroactively changed, much less arbitrarily or carelessly. We understand that Voice Actors are human beings, and that a lot can happen in a decade. With the game still in active development, it is understandable that there might be a need for more lines to be added. But to replace lines that have already existed with us for a long time, whilst failing to add any new contexts, interaction options or new dialogues, whilst also not fully replacing all the voice over lines but to keep it in an inconsistent hybrid state, is simply detrimental to us users, and objectively undesirable. Please revert these changes as soon as possible, and let's find a better solution for the future regarding this, or a more satisfactory compromise if one needs to be reached.130Views12likes2CommentsConstant crashes and more.
I am playing on an Xbox s1 and my sim had to stay over with a guy that she's trying to get to know and for some reason he wasn't showing up where the other Sims show up to play him but I did push B+A to go to Cas because his attitude stinks so I had to change some of his personality traits wow what a return to the game it's not me playing my normal household it's him only and yet he's in the household still because it's a stay over but I can't see any furniture around me it's not like a rabbit hole but I can't see the furniture I can only see The Sims and I have no option to play the other Sims in my own household. There are many bugs in this patch especially for Xbox and please give Xbox the opportunity to have custom content it's not fair or make the game cheaper for a console players. Also it's been freezing like crazy and taking forever to load and lagging.9Views0likes1CommentPhotos/Paintings turning black/blank (1.102.190/1.82)
My pictures are black after I load back into my game on console.

There is NO way to recover them other than loading a backup. Even if Maxis fixes the bug that they disappear you will not have them back as the information is just not there anymore. Instructions on how to recover a backup can be found here: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2014/09/recover-backup-save-game/ Instructions how to fix your photos if the screenshot still existing (not for console) https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2025/04/custom-photos-in-game-fix-for-black-photos/ Make sure your photos are safe If you take photos you really care about, put them in a room and upload that to the gallery/library. They should stay save that way although there are also mixed reports for those After you took pictures you really care about, save your game. To me it looks like that the pictures aren't properly saved to your game if you click save & Exit. Click save first, then exit without saving.12KViews405likes214CommentsShort dirty nail swatch causing Sim to look metallic
The new short dirty nails from the July 1st update cause visual glitches with my sims. Video and photo attached showing what exactly happens. I'm on PS5 with no mods. The longer dirty nail set seems to work just fine, only the shorter one is giving me visual glitching.

like i said we got the new category in The Sims 4 since the latest update and now that i come to think of it: can these items be added in a seperate category that just existed since recently? i won't mind having these items but it sometimes takes ages untill i can find something i'm looking for but now that the new category got added, i want all these items to be in that new category and an another thing: hopefully we get more items colours options without changing the hair colours, either add a few colours or make it a colour wheel...like maybe you want a pink hairband while keeping the blond hair for examble my another reason i just have in mind is: there are hair decorations that might looks cute in other hairstyles so all these are win-win for everybody i hope the team consider this adding these hair items in the brand new category32Views2likes0Comments
