Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.47.49.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a vampire in CAS, go to dark form and click on the little arrow next to the copy button that would let you choose what to copy over in the past.
What happens when the bug occurs? The copy menu does not appear at all.
What do you expect to see? I expect to be able to choose what to copy over like before.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Happened after getting the new Sims 4 game patch.

I've attached a picture that shows the issue, no copy menu, only the title.

• The Parts to Copy filter, for vampires in Create-a-Sim, should now actually show what parts you can copy.

Guessing Patch notes are referring to this issue (let me know if not)

Fixed in Patch 1.48.90

Hi @skyemuu

this still works for me

Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

• Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
• Tray Folder
• Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
• Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
• Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
• Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

I've tried everything now, nothing works. Reset my sims 4 folder, repaired the game, started without mods/cc, still nothing.

Messed with it some more now, turns out only my existing vampires have the issue. Any new vampire I create in CAS is fine.

[crinrict]

OK. Let me test that.

EDIT: Yup, that I can duplicate.

[skyemuu]

Tested some more and found out it works if you enable cas.fulleditmode for previously created vampires. It wasnt like this before and its very inconvenient but it does seem more like a bug than an intentional change since the arrow is there in the first place.

Can you help me fix this bug in CAS? The parts to copy list of my vampires' Dark form is not showing.

I hope I'm not hijacking the thread, but I'm having the same problem since I updated my game.

You're not hijacking :D 

I even merged your other post in here. It's keeping one thread issue here so we keep them all in one.

Thanks for your report.

Thanks. I've now installed GF, and I still can't edit the dark forms.
