[OPEN] [ROM] Spellcaster Toddler: Eyes and Ears wrong when growing up

[CharityCodes]

Can confirm that on PC this still happens. No mods, no cheats, new save file. Had several caster babies from both caster parents. Toddler has special caster eyes when aged up from a baby. They are also half-alien, so I'm not sure if that matters. They have purple or blue skin, but still have hair and no disguise. The caster eyes look fine in CAS, but if their outfits are modified, the caster eyes are gone in live mode. I tried the suggestion here of changing just one clothing item, toggling to a different outfit, seeing their eyes still there, then exiting on the same sim. Their eyes were still changed to a standard color when switching back to live mode. I also confirmed this happens when changing outfits for children. The only way to get around this and keep their eyes (without mods) is to age them up to teenagers and then change the outfits. Teenagers and adults will keep the caster eyes. I think it's because toddlers and children are not officially casters until they age up. This causes the game to remove any caster features when they are edited in CAS.

Some more information. Even if you wait until they are a teenager, they can never change between caster eyes or ears. You're stuck with the ones you had at birth. If you ever change the eyes to a different color, then you can never get the original eyes back because the options aren't there. The only way to fix this is to go to the magic realm and ask for the rite of dissolution. This removes the spell caster occult from the sim and they're human again. Wait 1 sim day because of in game restrictions. Go back to the magic realm and ask to become a spell caster again. This time, all of the spell caster eyes and ears will be unlocked and you can have any of them. This also gets rid of the false 2nd form you might see when saving a spell caster by birth in CAS. You keep your inherited bloodline trait and any previous spells and caster rank you earned, so there is no penalty for resetting your caster like this. You just lose 1 day of in-game time while you're not a caster.

The problem I've been having (basically since spellcasters came out) is that spellcasters that are born rather than created in CAS still have a hidden alternate form (but the alternate form doesn't show up in the gallery for toddler or child; just for teen and older - when they officially become a spellcaster). I think that hidden alternate form is what is causing my toddler and child spellcasters to have their eyes constantly changing (usually to one of the occult eyes) and their hair color will occasionally change as well. If you want to see a lot of this issue, use the "no shoes indoors" or "wear slippers indoors" feature from snowy escape; that will pretty much guarantee that the toddler and/or child will have their eyes changed.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1.: a werewolf sim is born 2.: becomes teenager and gets his wolf form 3.: their wolf eyes are totally random and cannot be modified even with cas.fulleditmode Spellcaster children cannot get occult eyes either.
What happens when the bug occurs? The case is the same with spellcasters. When spellcaster/werewolf children become teenagers, their eyes cannot be modified to supernatural ones in CAS (in full edit mode). Moreover, even if both of their parents had occult eyes, they still inherit a simple random one. In the case of werewolves, this is even more irritating, since my sims' wolf eyes have nothing to do with his normal eyes or either with his parents' normal or wolf eyes.
What do you expect to see? Either werewolves and spellcasters being able to inherit their parents' occult eyes, or occult eyes being avalaible in CAS for natural born sims as well. (Preferably both, since both functions sound like that's how the game is supposed to work.)

Sim1 was born to 2 werewolf parents, sim2 was created by me.

@KitaKiyonori Quick fix without mods is to cure the werewolf and then make them a werewolf again. I suspect this happens with all occult babies born instead of created: werewolves, spell casters and vampires. It's been that way for more than 2 years and people are not reporting it enough.
