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.

If you have this issue for a certain third party download, please use the mods forum instead The Sims 4 Mods & Custom Content
Blacked out pets in the sims 4??? Anyone else having this issue?
PS4 player! I created this family a while back with myself and bf and our dog but spent HOURS making the dog look just like she does in real life. I logged into my game after the new update just to find my pet completely black?? I used custom paint I heard others saying the custom paint was the issue. PLEASE FIX THIS WE NEED AN EMERGENCY PATCH ‼️
Entire lower bar disappears
I keep having an issue where my whole lower bar (where my sims and their needs are) and sometimes other buttons (build mode, gallery button it's not always the same) just disappear. It usually happens when I go from a non-live mode to live mode. At times I cannot click anything so I have to do alt + F4 to save and close to restart the game. I thought it was a new mod so I deleted it and I am still having this issue. I also have been crashing often which has never been the case for me on this PC even with mods and CC. Is this just a me issue with my mods and CC or is it other people as well? I haven't ever posted about a bug since there aren't many I encounter that aren't already known or that don't have a large effect on my gameplay. This bug has been so bad that at times I cannot play. Thank you for any help!Sim pitch black
I just wanted to help whoever may need it . My sim was pitch black after playing for literally a whole day and I couldn’t figure out why i used tray importer took out everything that was bad I turned off mods and removed them and did a repair and still nothing and then I read that it was the tattoos so I took them off and she was back normal so that definitely works I just don’t understand why it only happened to one sim when multiple sims have tattoos in my game . Was wondering if anyone knew why ? Thanks in advance
Photos/Paintings turning black/blank (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/ 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.
All Shiny CAS items lost shine (lower graphics settings)
All CAS items that should have a shine or sparkle to them are not working. The new glossy skin effect added in with latest update as an accessory do not show in CAS or in game. All lipsticks that should be glossy are matte, all of the bedazzled dresses from vintage pack are broken/missing their sparkle. All CAS eyes and teeth are now unlocked for all sims. All new Werewolves made or edited in CAS are missing the color options for their nose/ears, all nose/ears for the Werewolves are just fur colored.
