Game progress will no longer be lost when editing/adding/deleting career outfits in Create a Sim.

Fixed in Patch 1.63.133/ Console 1.25

 

 

If you're on console and still have issues with uniforms, please use this thread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/XB1-PS4-DO-CD-Editing-restaurant-vet-outfits-breaks-it-UI/m-p/...

 

If you're on PC/Mac, make a new thread.

Hi @Gracietbh

 

I had no issues with that.

 

Did you create your own outfit or was it one of the standard ones ?

 

Are you playing a pre-patch save or a new one ?

I'm not exactly sure when "pre-patch" was, sorry! I made this save yesterday. I went to the outfit creation screen, looked around at some of the clothing items, and then didnt change anything and hit "cancel"

Just logged in to play and when I went to go hire new workers after losing my older ones, I found one of my old workers with her same pay and skill level. All is not lost, but I still lost all perk points and reviews. I understand theres nothing to be done, but I just wouldn't want anyone else to experience it!

I was able to duplicate this issue

 

When you go in CAS, the vet clinic closes and the employes are fired. I still had all perk points and still owned the clinic.

For me, I lost everything, and I found out I also lost all training progress with my animals.

Yeah, sounds like a bad issue. Refrain from editing clothing in CAS for the vet (and possibly Dine Out and Retail) for the moment.

 

You can try recover save from the load menu to see if you have a save from before it happened.
