[OPEN] Sims not looking at camera while taking photo

[ Edited ]
★★★ Novice

After one of the more recent patches, while taking photographs, I've noticed that sims just look straight in the direction their head is pointing instead of looking at the camera.

 

I realize not all poses are meant to have them looking at the camera but as it is now, unless the head is pointed towards the camera, the sim will NEVER look at the camera.

 

I've tested with zero cc installed/active, repaired the game and I have been able to replicate the issue consistently.

 

EDIT: I've included picture that displays the bug at hand.

 

I've also discovered that this doesn't affect new games but I'd greatly prefer to not have to start over from scratch.

 

EDIT 2: Okay, upon further experimenting, this bug is attached to my sims as a whole. Even when I load them from my library, all of them refuse to look at the camera

I wonder if that has something to do with the facial expressions that are off atm.

 

I do feel my pictures are different as well but I haven't tried an unmodded environment yet.

 

I'm going to add this for Feedback to see if others have similar issues.

 

You might also want to post in the official forum to see if others experience this as well: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/

 

More traffic there.

Just tried with unmodded game, definitely seems like there's something wrong with photos. Group selfies work okay though.

Due to how their forum system works over there, I can't create a new thread relating to this matter.

It's fine.

 

I can recreate and so can Fons.

 

I'll be adding it to the list on the next round.
