Title: Anybody else hates this new feature in AL?
Post by: azacforpeace on November 06, 2008, 05:30:56 pm
Whenever you shower, plan outfit, visit another lot or change from example : Outerwear --> Everyday, the face of your Sims varies to the one that looks a little too awkward.

This not only happens when I am playing a Sim, but also to other Sims and NPCs if they do what is listed in the first paragraph.

Is there any mod that fixes this bug? Please let me know if there is! Thank you.

This is annoying me too! I thought this was hacks mixing together or something. Every time they even think of changing their clothes, their faces change.

Is there a way to fix this?

Wait... Is this a permanent change?

What I've read on other forums is that these are not glitches but part of the design of the new EP and it would be difficult to remod it.  It's supposed to be "fun" that the thumbnails change, but I'm oc about getting my thumbnails just so....so I'm po'd.

Actually, I think this is a feature where they got the idea from one of Monique's old mods. Dizzy said he had to go "low level" in order to fix it (i.e. editing the executable), whereas Chaavik has a work-around.

The lag does get annoying when it comes to calling other sims, but it's barely noticeable when the sim changes, and the amount of times I've experimented with different skins and changing outfits, I actually like this feature.

I agree. It used to be that when you changed clothes, you then had to go to the mirror and change the makeup or something in order to make the clothing match the thumbnail, now when you change clothes it automatically changes the thumbnail. This is a feature that I actually like better!

Oh. Seems like there are some who prefer this feature. :eek: I've gotten used to it after 5 months of playing AL, but I would still appreciate if there are some mods that halt this feature. (:

I thought my game was glitchy!  Thank goodness it's not just me then.

I like that I don't have to use the mirror to make the thumbnail match, but why does it do it after my sims take a shower?!  Whoever thought that was a good idea needs a good thumping!

I like the feature also, I don't have to update their pics everytime I change the clothes. I don't really pay attention to it that much.

Chaavik did a mod to make them change less, but I didn't like the bodyshop pose. That one was bugging me. You can find it in Squinge's Mod called UI Poses Override (http://www.insimenator.org/index.php/topic,98001.0.html) .

I went to seek the mod on my own and finally found it! ;D It worked really well. However, it is a patch and only if you are serious, then can you install it accordingly because patches are hard to reverse. Anyway, here's the link to it: (Am I allowed to post it freely?)
