@seahawks42134 Could you try right clicking on the game in Origin and hit repair game ?

Close the game first.

I have a similar problem with some non playable Sims. Except paint is not red but kind of gold ?
Game has been repaired, and I just installed the new update to fix the crashing issue.

I'm adding a screenshot.

Skin is ok in CAS. It only looks this way in live mode.
