I've also noticed another issue with the new nail designs.

 

There appears to be a visual glitch when applying them to sims who are transgender, or have custom gender settings in CAS that include feminine and masculine frames. The nails don't line up that well, and is more apparent when using longer nail designs. The nails also look patchy, and parts of skin can be seen showing through the nails in some areas. This happens for both hands, and all nail lengths and designs.

 

I've tested with and without mods and CC, but the issue still occurs.

First, I love the Spa Day update, but I noticed that nails are clipping on trans sims, both masculine and feminine frames, and I think they're a bit misaligned also. The clipping/misalignment isn't as noticeable with the longest nails. I took some pics of how they look in CAS as well as in game.

As there are no transsims in the game I assume that you mean female sims in male clothes or the other way around. Or are you talking about some kind of mod you are using? I see from the last picture that you have broken Mods/CC in the game. Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game
If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.

@jpkarlsen I meant a female sim with a masculine frame and vice versa, I was trying to be inclusive, but anyway, mods were disabled during the taking of the images, and I haven't installed any cc nails.

@Bluebellflora Also I just noticed that from your close-ups, that the fingertips themselves look a little morphed, at least on the male sim with female frame -one

I was not trying to be facetious just to be clear on what was talked about. Also I was not talking about the nails regarding broken CC but in your third picture there is a hole between the legs. This is usually a sign of broken CC.

Can confirm that I'm seeing the same visual clipping.

 

I did post about it in this bug report here as I wasn't sure whether all bug reports regarding the new nails should be kept together or not.

 

As always, I've done the usual wash, rinse and repeat steps to ensure the issue it not caused by mods, CC or anything else on my end.
