Elders can only have grey hair

[crinrict · Accepted solution]

• Fixed an issue in Create a Sim that prevented an elder Sims hair from changing color to the selected color at the time the color was selected, but instead waited until after a new hair was selected.

Should be fixed in Patch 1.24.102

The "elders can only have grey hair glitch" has made a comeback in my game, this time affecting elder females who become vampires. Hair color shows correctly in CAS but is always elder-grey on-game.

But .. but .. it was JUST fixed again

I'll retest

Does it only happen to them if you turn them or also create in CAS ?

I was not able to duplicate on random Sims (but I made the Vampire in CAS)

Hi Crin,

So sorry for the late reply!

I created a vampire family today in CAS; with elders of varying hair colors, and noticed the glitch does not appear. Pink-haired old lady has pink hair, etc...

The sim-in-question that suffers from the grey-hair glitch started out human, as she was made pre-Vampires game pack. However, she has always had dark dyed hair. The proper color shows up in her manage worlds thumbnail and in CAS, but as soon as I enter the household she shows up with elder-grey hair, and her image resets in manage worlds. 

Thanks,

Mauvejinjo

Hi @mauvejinjo

could you upload the Sim in question to the gallery and post the name here ?

Hi Crin,

Ms. Inez Whittaker can be found in my gallery under ID mauvejinjo. 

I don't know why it's coming up as CC. I am uploading her separate from her household and I don't believe she uses any CC. I also tried playing her separate from her household and the glitch still remains.

Thanks.

Thanks. I'll try her tomorrow

@mauvejinjo Apologizes for not answering earlier.

I've tried your Sim and can duplicate.

I'll forward

@crinrict No problem at all! Thank you for taking the time to look into this.
