edited June 2015 in The Sims 3 Mac Discussion
After updating my sims 4 (Its been a while since I played) I decided to create a new sim

the face is gone (literally invisible) but the other things (clothes,hats,hair,body parts etc.) aren't.

    hi @igobebe2000 and welcome are you using any CC if so pull the mods folder to the desktop and test again. if not does it keep happening to new sims when you make them without using the CAS cheat

    and whats your video card? have you recently updated video drivers?

    Hello.
    If you have mods/cc in your game, did you test your game without them in the mods folder? They may be conflicting with the latest patch.

    Hello.
    Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Test to see if the problem is still there. Exit the game. Then add back the "options.ini" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" and "custom music " folders to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders.

    You can "break" the link, adding a space in it somewhere. We'll fix it, I for one will make the effort to find this pic... I'd like to see this faceless sim of yours!

    I was able to resolve the problem by simply right clicking and repair the game =)
    i'm sorry for causing such a commotion. I've never thought about doing that before xD

    It was running smoothly, the patch broke it.

    No worries, I'm glad you fixed it. Repair option is good... I just wish we didn't have to use it so often. But at least it DOES help fix a bunch of things.

    That was a freaky picture. Kinda glad I haven't had that happen here, yet. (Never say never!)

    Hi!

    I had the same exact problem. My Sim's face disappeared and I couldn't figure out how to fix it even after reading this forum so I just moved him out. Even when he was living in a separate household, his face was still completely gone until one day it wasn't. I don't know what fixed it but later on I moved the Sim back in, face and all. Then he was taking a shower and when he came out his face was gone again. So to humor myself, I just had him take a shower again. And it brought his face back.

    I don't know if anyone had a similar problem, but if you did hopefully this might help!

    Also, this is the Sims 3 Mac section. The Sims 4 Mac section is closer to the top of the forums. :)

    it is Cien - No EA Lashes V2 For - For All that caused this problem for me so just search the mod folder and delete it

    Thanks @201601082 ! I've been having trouble with this issue for weeks yet nothing worked. Turns out that it was that simple cc that was messing up my game!

    My sims 4 head is still broken and I have tried most of the things mentioned here, any help? I do have mods and I have moved my mods folder and its still doing it... HELP!!!!
  • igazorigazor Posts: 19,330 Member
    @jakerendell9106 - Hi there. This is the TS3 section of the forum. I actually have no idea why this (older) thread is here since it has nothing to do with TS3 for Mac.

    There is no Help Center for TS4 here any longer, all of the boards on that section of the forum were archived to Read Only a few months ago in favor of having players post TS4 tech/game related issues on EA's AHQ board instead. Perhaps some assistance could be provided by posting there?
