(OFB) Townie Eyebrows Disappear in Uniforms

[bobolo]

Okay, so I searched for this problem in the forums..and didn't find any posts about it..so I'm posting it now. With that said, I'm experiencing a problem..I'm not sure if it's a glitch, or what. Basically what happens is in Open For Business, I'll have a place of business made and hire employees. The employees all have eyebrows when they arrive, but when I change their clothing and set a uniform for them to wear their eyebrows disappear and remain gone while they're in the uniform, but when they change to their normal clothes their eyebrows come back. This problem seems to only happen to most males. I haven't yet seen it happen to a female. Anyway..if you know what causes this or a way to fix it I'd be greatful. Some additional info: I have almost all the major expansions installed and I've recently replaced the default skins (and eyes) with custom skins..but I have -NOT- replaced any facial hair or eyebrows so I doubt it's a conflict with custom content. Thank you for reading..I'll remain hopeful for any info on this matter. :)

Dear bobolo,

Thank you for posting in the MTS2 Help section. In order to better solve your problem, please go through the following steps as listed below:

This is NOT multiple choice! You must read and go through ALL the FAQs!

General - Do the Game Problem FAQ
You appear to have not gone through our main Game Help:Game Problem FAQ. Please go through and do the steps on this FAQ, including any others that it links to (for example the Game Help:Game Problem-Problem Custom Content FAQ).

Usually, in the vast majority of cases, actually going through and doing the steps (doing, not just reading) fixes issues - sometimes you may be asked to remove custom content, or to patch - please rest assured that all of our FAQs have been tested by our staff and volunteers and we wouldn't suggest you do something unless it's been known to fix particular issues.


Other FAQ
I do remember this bug, but I have no idea what the fix for it was, or even if there was one. Hopefully someone with a better memory than I will come along shorty - until then, you should definitely do the Game Problem FAQ, as I'd not be suprised if it was a case of conflicting custom content.



Please read through all of the FAQs above! Doing only one or two of them (when more exist) will usually result in delays not fixing your particular problem.

On occasion you might be asked to do a long FAQ - please make sure you do all the steps and don't just skip over them. You'll often find that these long FAQs have all the details you need. If nothing in the above FAQs fixes your problem you may post again detail exactly which you have done and which steps failed.


Regards,
MTS2 Staff

Yes, indeed, this is a bug with OFB that EA has never fixed, namely:the employee's face changes when you assign a uniform. Although, yours is a bit different than what I've seen reported. The usual bug changes the 'face' of the sim not just the eyebrows. So, in your case, you might have a custom skin or other bodyshop content that is causing this anomoly (unless you are highly organized, use the clean installer to install sims, and subfolder the heck out of your downloads, it's possible something snuck into one of your folders).

Advice, try the FAQ (removing the Downloads folder and Saved Sims folder). Then pay particular attention to the faces of the sim. See if the face morphs into something different. If it does, it's the OFB bug. If only the eyebrows change, it's probably something in your CC files causing this problem.
