I decided to download a set of default replacement skins for supernatural Sims. When testing, it seemed to be ok, but when I loaded my normal game I noticed a plantsim had a normal face now. As in, a plantsim body but a normal, non-plantsim face with regular skin.

I exited the game without saving and promptly deleted the replacements. I would have thought it would make the skins revert to the games' defaults, except now that Sim's face is missing entirely. It's just invisible. I sent the Sim to the mirror and changing appearance just results in the problem above (plantsim body skin, normal face).

I didn't do anything with genetics in the brief moments the default replacements were installed.



I'm really at a loss for what to do!

Have you tried deleting the cache files?

In an "extreme" case, you could try curing the sim and making them into a plantsim again (use a mod) - that should reset their skin, at least as long as it's just a problem with one sim and not all plantsims in your game.

Clearing the cache worked, thank you! I'd deleted the clashing mods but didn't know/remember the cache.
