Sims will now keep skin details added while on Outfit Categories besides Everyday when re-entering Create a Sim. You’re you regardless of your clothing choices
○ Child, Toddler, and Infants are being a little stubborn when it comes to birthmarks which we are continuing to look into, but as long as birthmarks are selected while on the Everyday Outfit Category, they will keep their birthmarks
Fixed in Patch 1.96.365/1.71

Started having this exact issue last night when making new sims for my save. Switching to any other outfit removes all skin details. I had to redo them all several times and it was super frustrating!

Same thing, really frustrating how buggy the sims is

So...lately I've been trying to apply facial scars to a sim, particularly those from the werewolf pack...and the minute that I confirm it and return from CAS? It just dissapears from them as if it were never selected. Any ideas as to what the issue could be?

Ever since the update on the 30th my skin details have been acting up. Whenever I put a skin detail on a sim it will disappear from the sim after I select anything else. It will also not be removed if I click the x in the corner. In the past I have been able to put multiple skin details such as wrinkles and beauty marks on at the same time, but with this bug they disappear upon selection. I have mods but this occurs even after I run a vanilla game and only select EA’s skin details. I have tried repairing the game and deleting the sims folder (minus saves and tray) but neither have seemed to help. I do not have any last exceptions coming through either. Please help
