Sims 4 skin issue

★★★ Newbie

The skins on my sims have been looking like the attached since the latest update. I don’t have any custom mods but EA help said mods were the issue. How can I fix this?

@mparisi214 Have you tried repairing your game? That usually fixes this particular issue when it’s not a mod issue. You might have to repair the game more than once. Anyway I think this happens when the patch doesn’t quite install properly, and they should be aware of that.

@ValiantRedKnight How do you repair the game? I’ve never had to do that before.

@ShaeHornback Did you ever move your Sims installation to a different location with the move interaction or are do you have Sims on an external drive ?

Have you tried reinstalling Origin itself also ? (sorry, didn't go back to read all posts)

Go to the origin games library, right click the Sims 4’s icon, then choose Repair from the list of options. Hopefully you only have to do it once.

@crinrict My sims file is on the laptop and same location. And, I have not tried the reinstall of origin itself. I didn't know that could be a problem. I will definitely try that. Thanks.

@mparisi214 Are you on mac or pc ? I merged your post with the pc thread for now but will move to the mac one if you're on mac.

Please see first page for suggestions.

 

@ShaeHornback Reinstall Origin and then try another repair (yeah, I know) but it might be an issue with Origin that keeps it from installing everything. Although it's odd that you have the textures in some mods and not in others.

 

Have you ever tested if they show up on a new save game ? See if it's save game related for you ?

EA Skin Tones Glitching With Latest Patch

[ Edited ]
★★ Novice

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? 1.69.59.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I simply opened up the file and all of the skintones that are from EA are doing this. I tried to fix it by removing all of the custom content skintones from the system but even after that, they're still doing this.
What happens when the bug occurs? EA skintones show up as white and red, as if their base does not exist.
What do you expect to see? The skintones added in without the glitch.
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. The most recent patch EA added seems to have triggered this.

EA skin tones are glitching. Happened with the most recent patch. I removed all custom skin tones and overlays. Still doing it. Photos attached are from different saves and different neighborhoods.

@FuwerzarRandom Could you try if repairing the game works ?
1. Close the game
2. Right-Click on the game in Origin
3. Hit Repair game.
