What happened to my sim??

[Cindra]

OK this was just a test sim to make sure a few mods were working correctly. When I aged my sim to a child it made my sim appear like this (pic provided). Any suggestions or solutions? Thanks in advance everybody!

P.S. Toddler appears same way. Teens and adults appear normal.

Are you using any custom bodyshapes?

[Cindra]

No custom bodyshapes. That was however, a custom skintone by Simcribbling. I've used it on all my sims and never had this happen.

Usually when you get a Sim like that it's missing a mesh. I know with the BodyBuilder and Slim BodyBuilder's, if you're missing the showerproof meshes, you get a floating head like you have in your picture. But, that isn't the case here.......

Did you try changing the clothes if the sims is clickable?

[Cindra]

Hmm thanks for that tip. But no sorry I didn't try changing clothes. When I aged her to toddler she was like that so I just kept aging her thinking it was just a glitch. I just kind of freaked out when I seen them like that. Teen and adult age were fine. Thanks for all your help everybody!  

I did just download a male sim with BodyBuilder skintone and clothes. But I didn't use that skin on this particular sim. She was already created. And, I didn't download this showerproof mesh. Is this what your referring to Ekozski? If so then I'll download these 2 links provided and see if that helps. Thanks for everything!

Download the first link, that has the meshes you need so you won't get a floating head.

With all the Sims I've created, I automatically include them.

Well that didn't fix the floating head problem with Toddler's and Children. But, I think I found a way to avoid it anyhow. I currently use Monique's Individual Aging on/off mod and Merola's Multi Painting to add days for when I'm ready for them to age.

I tested the add days to age with the painting then had them grow up and they didn't have floating heads. It's always nice when a creator includes all the meshes with the sim and/or whatever they are creating. I wish the majority of them were like you! Anyway I appreciate everything and I'll try to work around the issue. Thanks for everything!!

You're welcome!

When I saw the floating head, that was the first thing that popped into my mind. Since that was the problem, it hopefully gave you a starting point.
