Non-binary?
The Sims games have always been fun. And rather socially progressive even. However, humans are a mess. 😅 Humans have sexual dimorphism, meaning we have two primary genders: male and female. Everyone knows this. However, thanks to genetic mutations, humans can, very rarely, have a total of 6 biological genders. They are rare gender mutations, but The Sims is a fictional life simulator anyways. I'd love for them to be added to the game. The inclusion would be great, and would definitely add even more possible options and details. And because then I can spend a few more hours creating a Sim. 😄 While it may be a bit much to ask the programmers of The Sims 4 expansion packs (or even The Sims 5 maybe) to have male, female, and the four non-bianary genders, perhaps we could have three gender options? Male, Female, and Non-bianary? And there could be check boxes for what that Sim can do, regardless of selected gender. Like lactate, impregnate others, be impregnated, stuff like that. All the check boxes would do is set the rules for what the Sim can do, cannot do, and what they can and cannot be affected by. Oh, and the should NOT be "either or" checks. That way, I can make a male or female or non-bianary Sim who can lactate, be impregnated, and impregnate others, all at once. OR I could make a non-bianary Sim who can't do any of that. Or a male Sim that can lactate and be impregnated. Or make a female Sim who can impregnate others. I know other players like me would love these options. People already make some fantastic Sims, creations I never could make. And I know the modding community would ABSOLUTELY love these options. I know there are a few mods out there already that get close to this idea, but I would LOVE to see it in the base game, whether that be The Sims 4 or even The Sims 5.
Stop making the default thumbnails the black swatches!
Can't see anything in the Life and Death CAS or the Storybook Nursery BB, and half of the Businesses and Hobbies CAS. It's all black, indscriminate blobs. The other swatches are much more colorful. There are clothes where you can't see any details at all until you change the swatch color. Look at this B&H before and after of the default swatches versus hidden swatches. Which is easier to read? Look at the pants in Life and Death... Like, come on. You can't tell a difference between them in the first image...
Accessory Issue?
Sims 4 prompted me with a "new content to download" popup when I opened the game so I downloaded it without even paying attention and now for some annoying reason every time I try to go to the "Accessories" section on create a sim, it zooms into the sims nails and is automatically switched to the "Bracelet" sub section without me clicking anything else and now there's no way to look at all accessories at once. I have zero idea why this is happening and I wish I read what the download was for but I'm pretty sure that wouldn't have helped. I've double checked both with mods and without them but that didn't seem to change anything.

Hi. Whenever I try to load my Sims game, through both Steam and the EA app, it pops up with that error I know it has something to do with my CAS and BuildBuy folders because when I take them out it opens, but when I tried to go through them with the 50/50 method it still didn’t load I’ve tried making new folders but it still won’t Their names are “!Create a Sim CC” and “!BuildBuy CC” if that has something to do with it[COLLECTION] Issues with Nails

Colour sliders for hair
We've got quite a bit of skin tone choice now, but a lot less hair colour choice. It would be great to have sliders and be able to choose any colour we like. Having two-tone hair with two sliders would be cool too, so we can have dyed sections of hair. I think TS4 CAS is great - but we could do a lot more with hair colour options. Hair does come in all colours, natural and dyed, and we don't have that in game at the moment. Just a quick note, I'd still like pre-textured hairs to be possible and work in-game, there's so many out there already made, and sometimes it's the only way to get all the details needed. But adding colour slider hairs as well would give us the benefits of both options.
Sims 4: Wardrobe Wonders - Stuff Pack Concept
Overview “Sims 4: Wardrobe Wonders” is a Stuff Pack that transforms how Sims shop for clothes. No longer just an option in Create-a-Sim (CAS), clothing is now an experience. Sims will need to visit high-end boutiques and spend their hard-earned Simoleons on luxurious, exclusive outfits. This pack introduces a more immersive, rewarding clothing-shopping experience with exclusive fashion collections, expensive garments, and unique items unavailable in CAS. Key Features Exclusive Fashion Boutiques: New Retail Lot Type: Create or visit high-end fashion boutiques offering exclusive, expensive clothing items that can’t be found in CAS. Sims must save up or earn money to afford these luxury pieces. Boutique Shopping Experience: Sims can try on clothes in fitting rooms, browse limited-edition collections, and carefully select items that match their style. Each boutique features a unique assortment of high-end, trendy pieces. Expensive Clothing: Luxury Outfits: All clothing in the pack comes with a high price tag, making fashion feel like an investment. Sims will need to earn or save Simoleons to purchase their dream wardrobe. No CAS Availability: Clothing bought in boutiques is exclusive to retail shopping and can’t be found in CAS, adding excitement and significance to the shopping experience. Interactive Shopping: Try Before You Buy: Sims can try on outfits in-store, mix and match pieces, and preview how clothes will look before purchasing them, ensuring they get exactly what they want. Fashion App (Optional): Sims can also shop for exclusive luxury items through an in-game app, offering limited-time selections that are available for a short period.Photos/Paintings turning black (1.102.190/1.82)
My pictures are black after I load back into my game on console. Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title fit migrated bug report: [ARCHIVED] Photos/Paintings turning black (1.102.190/1.82) | EA Forums - 11628056 Archived thread had around 37 me toos EDIT by crinrict The photos get removed from your save game with this bug. 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/ 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.
Can't upload pre-made sims or houses to the gallery
My issue is quite confusing because I can upload custom tattoos, but I can't upload sims or houses that I have made in the past. I was trying to switch my sims over to a new save file so I had to save them and their house to the gallery. I press the save to library/gallery button and it doesn't work, it'll say "item uploaded succesfully" then I go on to the gallery/library (neither work) and its not their. The part I'm most confused about is my sister (who's using the same EA account but a different computer) and she can upload anything just fine? I have checked and it's not mod/cc related and I could upload the 8 sim family if I broke it up into 2 parts (but now I can't upload anything weather I break the family up or not)
