Game Creating Empty Households with Foxes

[crinrict]

@lostinmalloc This issue wasn't fixed. The empty households were fixed. Not the foxes

Merged your post with the existing thread.

@lostinmalloc I can back you up on this one. I've still got the same distorted fox images despite the recent patch. I'm on Xbox series S.

@crinrict Ah thanks for the clarification! Ive thought the two were the same problem..

I also thought this was the same problem as it all seemed to happen at the same time. Hopefully it will be fixed at some point. I haven't deleted them again as they vanish from the game for a while until I add the Wild Foxes Trait to a house and I'm partial to the little critters. They're less scary in pixel form than the real one that cries outside my window at midnight in my real English countryside village (but we rarely see a green llama and we definitely don't exchange gifts with rabbits and foxes).

@crinrict I've had the privelege of finally playing around with the Fox lot traits so they would start spawning, and yikes, they look so bad in the menu. Not only should they hide their households from the menu but also fix that monstrosity in CAS!

Refer to images of Nagy.

Repaired the game and Nagy still appears as advised wondering if i need to restart a whole new save. 

Discovered its only when you meet the fox's in cottage living neighbourhoods. meet a fox, then check other households then boom werid fox human

Foxes.

Households of foxes.

It is like cancer cells, taking over someone's body.

They are everywhere.

Household menu is full of them.

I am so freaking fed up with them.

It takes forever for me to find my "other" households and I think it also slows my game.

Let alone their monstrous appearance in households menu... nightmare fuel!

Same thing multiple times. I think MCCC had 3 adopted into families in my save then later I found them in their own household.  I find them super creepy.  I just delete them because I figure they aren't good for game integrity.

@crinrict Still an issue.

I came here to see if this was a known problem, because I looked in my unplayed households and found it infested with weird mutant Slenderman fox-weasels.  On the one hand, glad it's a known problem.  On the other hand, upset to know it's a bug that's been around for a while because those things are CREEPY.  Do not want!
