    So, since I'm waiting on an adapter for my graphics card, I've save many animals so when I play, I can take them from pre-made sims. BUT, when I delete the pet from the menu and it takes me back to the sim, look at what happens:

    or even this when I create offspring from 2 parents:

    BTW, the above picture is a toddler, not a child or a teen.

    Will my graphics card fix this?

      The second one looks like bad CC (Custom content). Like maybe someone created an outfit for a teen, but enabled it for a toddler, so the machine is trying to stretch the toddler into the teens outfit.

      I think there is a thread in this area of the forum that deals with removing bad CC.

      If you dont have any CC, then I don' know what could be causing this. And I have no clue about the upside down guy.

      First one acts like an animation or CAS mod that has not been rig fixed. The second looks to be an outfit classed for the wrong age. Now if that's EA clothes, then I'd look into cc items such as accessories or makeup that might have slots that should be rig fixed.
      Life is what you make it so, make it good.

      Okay, let me just put this out there, I didn't use CC when making these sims. I just took them from pre-made sims. The child's socks and overalls are EA Content and the hair, it is too. Just a recolored bow.

      Remove ALL Mods, if they are updated or not and try again, especially if you say only 'most' of them are updated.

      Also delete your cache files.

      Removing the mods... Are you serious? Like 89% of my Sims have Mods on them... *sigh* If this doesn't work...

      Removing mods nearly damaged my Sims. I put them back. I don't care anymore...

      The latest patch 1.26 changed the way the game handles cc. I don't think a new graphics card will help with the problem your having. Cc needs to be updated or redownloaded from the source.
      I do not work for EA nor do I have any association with EA. I am a gamer helping other gamers.

      It doesn't matter, just having non-EA CC in the game when you update will screw up your game.

      EA thinks that if they make the game as hostile as possible to 3rd-party CC then everyone will buy from The Store. I think that it is 3rd-party CC that gave the game it's popularity.

      Anyway, remove all your CC, but don't start your game. Then uninstall pets (if you have it) and update the game a gain. Don't play it until you put your favorite CC back in with one warning - the Pets EP/ update deliberately breaks all CC that support slots. That is any object you can put another object on. Do NOT reinstall any objects that you can put other objects on - like counters, tables, desks, etc. Clothes and decor should be fine.

      Before reinstalling your Mods, make sure that they have all been updated to the current update. Frawnkly, because my favorite Mods haven't been updated I have delayed updating my game (I didn't buy Pets).

      See what I mean about the game being hostile to CC?

      If you are experiencing this problem, it is an outdated mod.

      :thumbdown: The mod Replaced CAS animations - three flavours does NOT work with Pets. :thumbdown:

      Remove the mod.
