Ghost Sims will now appear as Ghosts in CAS. There were moments that they made us take a second look there, but nope, they are Ghosts and Ghosts they shall display as. I think I saw this as a plot for a movie… Ghosts… a machine, a dance… ANYWAY.

Fixed in Patch 1.73.48/ 1.40

@hexmaniacrose I have this problem too, any ghost appears as a human in CAS. They're still ghost in live mode but not in CAS

Hello everyone,

I have a problem in CAS with ghosts, they appear as normal humans in CAS instead of ghosts. They are still considered as ghost in live mode and still have their ghost voice in CAS but just appear human.

I don't use mods and I don't use CC, I already repaired the game twice but still.

If there's anyone to help me please, thank you.

@Jomilej Seeing this in my game also whether it's Sims cats or dogs they appear normal.

@Jomilej Merged this with the bug report on the issue.

Hey, I had this one, post paranormal patch recently. Using UI Cheats, MCCC without the Population and Pregnancy Modules, and part of the better schools mod. (At the time, I was like... "This is a ghost, right? Huh?")

I had this issue prior to the two most recent patches, but it no longer occurs for me. The sims icon at the bottom would remain a ghost portrait, so I had assumed that it was an intentional feature to make it easier to edit ghost sims.
