Title: Sims struck by lightning
Post by: nickieboy2004 on November 27, 2008, 07:22:52 am
I have sims who were struck by lightning.  I have quite simply forgotten how to get their appearance back to normal.  How do I do this?

I think you use the mirror to change their apperance or change their clothes

I thought that was how it was done as well, but it isn't working that way now.  I can have face make-up and masks set to None and the burnt skin effect still won't go away!

Well, the burns are supposed to wash off in a shower or bath, but it didn't seem to work.  I'll have to try that again later.

Very strange. I just have them take a shower and all is well again.

Sometimes the burns get stuck -- in that case just force an error or delete the Sim from the lot.

When you next enter the lot, the Sim will be back and unburned.

If by taking a shower or bath the sim appearance is not fix, the thing to do is to use a mirror and temporarely put a FACE MASK save and then use the mirror again and remove it.

It normally does the job.

Thank you MissDoh, that has been the only thing I haven't tried yet.  I've used Insim and the mirror to change appearances.  I've tried the shower/bath idea and I've deleted the Sim and then returned.  This is extremely perplexing especially considering that the one Sim is my primary character in the game.  He has been running around for the past week, all burned up.  It's rather comedic as he is a romance sim!

The face mask change worked!  Thank you!
