Help with body presets
Hello! I have what I assume to be a somewhat dumb question, but nobody has been able to help me with it and they all said I should ask over here. I'd also like to say that I am a total beginner when it comes to TS4 CC and the only CC-related experience I have is converting TS4 CC hair to TS3 (for personal use). So to make it short, I have a few body presets for female feminine-framed sims and I wanted to try to enable them for all feminine-framed sims, ie even male feminine-framed sims (I realise how it sounds but you'll have to trust me that it wasn't for any weird reasons, I have a good explanation. And also it was for personal use, don't worry). I assumed that there'd be no problem because I also assumed that when you select the frame of the opposite sex, the game simply switches the bodies +/- breasts, I am uncertain if that's really how it works or not.
What happened was that some of those body presets do work, but some don't. At first, I wasn't that interested in figuring out why that is as specifically all presets by one specific creator didn't work and I chalked it up to how they make their CC, but then I also did it with a set of body presets in a merged package and all of them but one work, which I found odd. What the ones that "don't work" do is that they distort the sim in a way that essentially makes them just a mass of spikes with some visible vague features like hands that look freakishly long.
I don't really need the ones that don't work and I don't expect to find a way to make them work, I'd just appreciate if someone could tell me why this is happening for future reference because for some reason I feel like the core of this problem is something simple that everyone except for me is on lol. I can of course provide screenshots if needed, but I am unsure if they are needed in this case.
