Repairing the game works. 

Thanks for the help.

Hi, I've been having trouble with weird textures, question marks and red/white or black/white blocks on my Sims (screenshots attached). I have already browsed the Forum for a bit, so here's a few to have in mind:

- I have no CC

- The packs I use are Get To Work, Realm of Magic, Vampires, Bowling Night stuff and Perfect Patio stuff.

- I have already repaired the game through Origin and it did absolutely nothing, the problem remains.

- It happens to all of my saved games.

It's getting so annoying I wish I could uninstall this update and go back to before it. So please if anyone has found a solution I would really really appreciate it!!

@dudasouzw  Since the repair alone didn't help, please clear Origin's cache, to flush its data.  Then and repair again.

If that doesn't help either, please move your entire Sims 4 user data folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop.  When you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  Don't add anything to it yet; just create a couple of sims and see whether the same issue happens.  It would be best to try some of the same outfits (for the same age groups) that are affected now.

I have this issue now since installing the update today.  I haven't turned on mods again yet either, and I tried repairing the game but it didn't fix the issue.  Any other suggestions?

Oh, well, just went through my entire Mods folder to see if anything was conflicting and didn't find anything, reloaded all of my Mods, and now everything is fixed.
