Bugged premium board art
One of the Creature premium decks is missing its high res textures. The orange and black image is distinctly low res and noticeably pixellated relative to the other Creature decks, suggesting that the wrong version of the art has been uploaded. I have taken pictures of the in-world asset, with two other Creature decks for comparison to show the gap in fidelity. I would appreciate if this issue can be marked for investigation, as it affects premium items which people have paid real money for. I want to support this game, but this doesn’t instil confidence - particularly as this is the second time I’ve had to report the issue…
Glass roof overlapping into other roof's rather than cutting away
I've noticed this for a while but I used to be able to create the most beautiful sky lights in my roofed areas but they've started clipping/overlapping onto other nearby roofs. They never used to do this and once it happens it only gets fixed by deleting the current roof and putting the exact same style down but from new.. Ill attach a picture the left hand side is how it is meant to look.. the right hand side is what happens if you slightly touch or adjust any other roofing parts... Please look into, its become a nightmare to even think about using a glass roof 🤣

New update texture issues
My current game was fine before the update. The update removed and broke all my cc. I do not use script mods, only items and cas items. I applied the hotfix and while most came back, they came back wrong. All of my cc hair textures look fine in CAS. When you get to playing the game however, the texture is gone and looks like something from a Playstation 1. Color gone, texture gone. And they have very obvious hair line issues. A few of my EA items have changed their colors in builds and on Sims as well. For example, I had red cowboy boots on one of my sims and now they're gray. I had a blue patterned couch in the living room that is now a basic blue. Etc. I tried to add a screenshot but it would seem the forums are being glitchy too.
