EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!!!

So...I downloaded these recently, mainly FOR the weird skins--but I've been having this odd glitch. The first time I even knew it was a thing, was when I had a Sim take their cat to the vet for the first time...and the vet lady had the FREAKIEST shiny, semi-transparent...full-of-crossed-lines skin, like a texture was missing.

So this tells me three things: One, that even while horribly disfigured, a dedicated vet can still do her job. Two, that these skins DO TOWNIFY. REPEAT: THEY DO INDEED SHOW UP ON RANDOMS for anybody who was wondering. And Three, that they glitch out as soon as their skin has _any_ other look besides the standard one.

It's not just tanning. I've seen it happen on a pink-skinned character I made, as soon as she got dirty. Somebody else mentioned the tanning from Island Adventures, so I assume with that and the dirtiness, it'd _also_ glitch when a character is burned or freezing.

It's really a shame, because otherwise you could DEFINITELY count me among the people asking for these to be genetic. Now, I'm wondering how it'll mess things up if I just flat-out take them out of my game, considering that at least two characters _already have them_...

They do this because they haven't been updated for the latest patches, I'm guessing. They also don't appear for occult sims unless you update them in Skininator or Sims 4 Studio. As far as I can tell, none of these skins have been updated since 2016. You can try this tutorial to fix them, that's what I'm doing. If it doesn't work...I guess I'm looking for new skin tones. https://www.patreon.com/posts/tagging-for-33601346

I updated your skintones to work with all the current Occults. Do you want it so you can post it on your modthesims?

Is it bad if I have these skin tones in game and they still work? I like to use them to make rainbow sims for fun.

I'd really love to see these as I don't know how to fix them myself.

Do you think you'll ever get around to updating this for the new Skintone Update that just happened?

I doubt they will update this mod considering how long ago it was updated, makes me mad they put these cc out there and don't keep up with it, All my alien skin tones are not useless and I have been checking and checking to see if they have been updated and they have not been, so far I have only seen two modders who have updated their skin tones to work with the new update, its still early so maybe but I aint holding my breath

Hello, I have updated and enabled the warm and cool skin tones for humans only as that is what I use. You can do the rest yourself using CmarNYC's TS4 Skin Converter or ask me to do the rest for occult sims also. It works with the new skin tone update.

If you use the skin converter that they linked you can set the skin tones to all occults. It's extremely easy to use. just import the package file and choose a output folder for the converted skin to go in. Only takes a few minutes for it to convert them.

For anyone trying to make these skins work, I tried using the batch fix via Sims 4 Studio, I got it to work in game, enjoy!
