Memories, Scrab book and themes organising
Hi everyone. What do you guys think about the Sims 3 memories and srab book. It would be nice to get something similar for Sims 4. It works kind of like a journal where you can save photos of the sim and write a story about the sim. Also one more thing. The object themes organizer in the build/buy menu was so good in the sims 3, if you remember. You could name a theme and place/save all objects there you wanted and it was easy to find. And then, not sure if this is a new idea, but it would be great to have a save option in CAS, when you design a full outfit for sim, it would be so nice to be able to save that outfit so you wouldnt have to do it again every time you go to CAS and create new sim. You could just have like a fashion menu for your own designed outfits and pick from there.
[MAC] Makeup sliders don't work when sliding to the left
This bug is listed in the Archived Bug Reports as [Open], but I'm confused why it's not in the new Bug Reports area if it's still considered open, so I apologize if I'm in the wrong for reporting this. This change over is really confusing to me. On Mac (latest OS on a 2023 Macbook Pro M3 Pro Chip) makeup and skintone sliders are still not working correctly after the newest patch. They only work when sliding to the right except for the Opacity slider on makeup which works both left and right. It has been that way since I switched over to Mac in April 2024. I was hoping with the new tattoo sliders, the makeup sliders would be fixed finally for Mac, but they aren't. This was originally reported two years ago. I really wish it could get some attention.

Short 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. Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted title Edit By puzzlezaddict: Added tag to title
[W] Cannot select nose color/monochromatic face for werewolves
Nose colors are no longer available for werewolves, and for any existing werewolves itll reset as soon as you bring them into cas. I of course have no mods or cc in my game right now as its right after the update. Edit By Crinrict: Added pack tag to title. Please add tags for packs yourself.
[EBN] Ailments too frequent
I got the Enchanted by Nature pack yesterday, and have played 5 in game days, with my household of 3 sims, at least 1 sim gets an ailment everyday. I keep them happy. I went into pack settings and disabled the imbalance, all it did was instead of having 2 of my 3 sims with ailments each day, I now have 1 sim with the ailment each day. There are also a ton of townies with ailments. Saw a post on facebook where people were also reporting that the ailments frequency was far too high. I am on PC No Mods Have reloaded into the game several times and it does not help. Edit By Crinrict: Added pack tag to title. Update: TheSimsDirect has addressed this issue on X as well:
Sims 4 Tray Importer Broken - What's the Alternative?
Hi All, Since the tray importer does not work for replacing the default gallery images for our creations, what is the alternative? For me, when I change out the default with a custom image for the gallery with S4TI, my townie gets corrupted and I have to delete them permanently (thankfully I had a backup). I assume that is the issue others are experiencing, and most forums just state it isn't working, but provide no alternative or other details. However, I still see custom images on the Gallery all the time. So, there must be an alternative right? Does anybody know? Every Google search just redirects me back to S4TI (thanks AI). Thanks, SSBlack Sims (Lost texture after Patch 1.116.223/1.25)
My game is fully updated including the patch on July 10, 2025 and 2 of my Sims are "blackout". There some CC hair and clothing in my game, but neither of these are wearing any. All other Sims appear as they should. These 2 are households in Willow Creek. Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title to better reflect the issue Edit by crinrict Please ONLY use this thread if your Sims went black with Patch 1.116.223 and were fine before this patch. The fix was NOT retroactive and all pets/Sims/werewolves that were already black will not be revert. All posts that don't fit the criteria will be moved out. It's important for EA to know what's still going on. Please use this thread for black Pets: [CD] Black Pets (Lost texture after Patch 1.116.223/1.25) | EA Forums - 12332547
Eyes/Eyelids Issues (Patch 1.110.265/2.01)
Hello, Since my bug report been archived and lost in the deep mountain, I restart a new one with all the updated ressources. TESTED WITH AND WITHOUT MODS/CLEAN SAVE, THIS BUG OCCURS ALL THE TIME. I am a modder and an animator and it seems that the eyelids doesn't translate correctly in the game like it used to be since this bug was introduced, and it's still there with the new patch. When the sim looks downside, the bottom eyelids don't move at all, making sims looks creepy (the eyes go inside the eyelid). I did some animations with the eyelids moving down while the eyes are looking down, and the animation from the eyelids doesn't translate correctly in the game at all. It affects any animations in the game right now. This is an example using CAS with maxis animations, where the eyes aren't closing completely due to the eyelids animations not translating correctly in the game. Before the eyelashes patch, they were closing just fine. Gifs with the bug : This is a gif from 2022, so without the bug : Maxis animations : Custom animation : For developpers/animators : I did another test, just to show you how terrible this thing is. For this test, I did a simple sleeping pose I will use to demonstrate the bug, because unfortunately it's the only way to explain the issue more properly, by comparing in an animating program and then how it translates in the game. To achieve this result in the game with the eyes being closed like this : In a posing/animating program, I had to do this : There is clearly an error of how the eyelids translate in the game since the lovestruck patch. I'd like to know if maxis is aware of this issue and if they will fix this, as it affect every animations in the game. If I'm closing the eyes as usual in the program, this is the result I get in the game : And no, it's not the program fault. This happens since the lovestruck patch and again, it affects all the animations from the game, even the vanilla ones. I believe a data from the eyelids or something similar has been touched and it needs to be reverted back.

Custom Tattoos Disappear from Fairy Form or Copy to Sims Form
Basically what the title says. I'm having a huge issue with any custom tattoos I put on my sim fairy's fairy form disappearing. I've had this happen on 3 different sims now. I'll add the custom tattoo and throw the sim in game and any custom tattoos I put on them will disappear and I have to go back into CAS and re-add them. Then they proceed to disappear again anytime I switch between their sims form and fairy form. I even had one where the tattoo disappeared when I switched from the fairy form to the sim form in CAS. With one I even had an issue with the tattoo copying over to the sim form even though I did not put the tattoo on the sim form.
