Hi i have recently noticed my male sims have no head from time to time. its not like they have no head all the time. it randomly happens. And its only my one male sim. All of my other sims are totally fine. Yes i have quite a lot of cc and a bunch of mods. But cc does not seem to be the problem, cause i thought it was because he had a cc hair on but i took the hair off and put a base game one on and he still had no head. Also all of his body parts are totally fine and hes not glitching or acting strange when he has no head. and yes i can hear him talking.

@megangreengirl Sorry for your frustration. Unfortunately, just removing the CC and not also removing the Mods and the cache isn't complete enough to eliminate the possibility that any of the Mods, CC, or cache left after removing them is causing the issue.
In order to see if any of them is causing the problems, please do the following in this order without skipping any steps, even if you’ve done some of these steps already:
Do not re-add any of your Mods or CC at this time. Please then restart your game and do not enter your previous game-save but begin a new game. See if the issue is present in this new game-save.
If this fixes the issue you can re-add your Mods/CC one at a time to see which were conflicting with the function/causing the glitch - but do not re-add the old Resource.cfg file from the old Mods folder, as it is possible for it to have become corrupted. If you have a lot of Mods or CC you can do so by via the 50/50 method.

Thanks so much for replying. but it actually didn't work . and also my friend had the same glitch and she doesn't have any cc or mods. But i am thinking its a pack glitch,because me and my friend have almost the same packs ( like all the same stuff and game packs and almost all the same expansions) and i looked my problem up and NO one seemed to talk about it or address it or ask about it ( at least where i was looking)

@megangreengirl I was having a 'chat' with another player earlier today about the fact that a large 'library' (thus tray folder) can sometimes cause issues. Do you and/or your friend have a large tray folder? If so you could try saving the current tray folder in a safe place, then reduce the amount of items in the library/tray folder, and see if the issue is still there.

@megangreengirl Are you by chance on Mac? If you are, on the directions I gave above please see that I have added an additional section to address Mac, as seen in this step of the directions (on running the game repair). If you are on mac I would recommend trying the directions again and including this step as well:

@megangreengirl You're very welcome!
Another thing you could try (a 'reset' of your game):
If the issue does not re-appear, try re-adding a copy your Mods/CC from the old folder on your desktop also.

You say your friend had the same glitch and she doesn't have any cc or mods? Do you think you could get her to add any more details on that? Like which packs she has and if she has been able to fix it? I just saw a different player post what sounds like the same thing is happening in their game. Thanks :D
