One Minute He Looks Normal …

GalacticGalGalacticGal Posts: 28,294 Member
I had my teen Sim, his mother and siblings all at a Karaoke Bar. My teen is a Rising Star and wanted to keep his Karaoke win from Sunday. Today was Tuesday. Yes, the save is brand new. However, once his father got off of work, he came to the place. I found him out on the sidewalk. He looked completely normal. Like his sons, on the lean side, but not skinny. I had to click on the youngest, still a Child, to get him to go home, too. As I panned the camera around I found their Dad inside the building. I did a double-take. In fact, I hovered over this Sim to make sure it was my Sim. He has gained a ginormous amount of weight. He's suddenly obese! How did that happen?

Yes, I have mods in my game. But I have had them for awhile. Yes, they are updated until tomorrow, that is. I wanted that one last hurrah, before I had to pull them and wait. But, I'm still puzzling over how my Sim can be lean one moment and then suddenly he's enormous. We're talking several suit sizes larger. :open_mouth:

When I play next, I'll be certain to take the entire family into cas.fulleditmode and 'fix' his situation. Nobody gains weight that fast. LOL

Has this happened to anyone else?

    I think one of the ice creams flavors make sims instantly large, maybe he ate that?

    I had that happen to one of my sims in my 100 baby save. She was normally very average shaped but then when i traveled home with her-from the gym no less-she had hit the max on the weight slider, making her seem as though she was very, very voluptuous.

    The diet in the house is strictly all garden salads since I have tomatoes out the wazoo, so I was wondering what was up.

    I do have mods in my game. The usual, MCCC, SOL, UI cheats along with some other unmentionable ones but I have yet to find the culprit.

    Same thing is happening with pregnant sims. One minute they look chubby with a baby bump and the next back to normal and no baby bump. It's gotta be a bug.

    Do they ever offer ice cream at a bar?

    Well, it's a strange bug to come on all of a sudden. The only thing new is the game save! :open_mouth:

    I've noticed lately that some of my sims seem to have gained weight over a very short time. I thought maybe it was the Slice of Life body system causing it so I removed that part of the mod for now. Maybe I'm wrong though and it's an actual game issue?

    I use the SOL mod, but I also have their physiques flagged via MCCC. I failed to flag Dad. But, he didn't gain it gradually, which has happened in the past. This was literally one moment he was normal and by the time I panned the camera around he was rotund. :open_mouth: Blink of an eye fast.

    Had the same issue and then 2 or 3 sim days later the sim had slimmed back down. :D

    I've been having sims gain weight over time, a slow creeping thing until I realize a sim is larger than when made. It's not their diet because most of the time it's salads with the occasional tofu dog. Off to CAS they go!

    I notice since DU sims gain weight. I thought it was added to give some realism...because as a young college student you don’t always make the best dietary choices.

    @JC1979 They always gained weight in the Sims 4 I think. If you look online you can even find a list with the calorie count of each sims 4 meal.
    Where's my Sims 5 squad at?
