Bodyshop and CAS Blank Screens and Missing Content

(1/3) > >>

For quite some time I have been having issues with both Bodyshop and CAS.

When I go into CAS and try to create a male or female sim it is blank.  I can click the random button and then a sim will show up, but there it always loads blank.

When I go into Bodyshop I get the same thing, just blank space where the sim should be.  I can select a custom sim and it will show up, but when I try to change the hair or eyes I can't.  None of my hair or eyes show up, but skintones do.  So basically Bodyshop is now useless and dysfunctional.

I am using Nailati's face template replacements and Louis's skintones for defaults.  I have a buttload of CC so I guess it could be any number of things.

Has anyone come across anything like this before?

I've had thumbnails get wonky on occasion, where things wouldn't show up, or male custom sims would show up mixed in with the female custom sims. I solved it by deleting everything in the ..\The Sims 2\Thumbnails directory, and letting the game rebuild them.  Might be worth a try.

Simsample:
theisz, does it work if you cut and paste your sims2 folder from My Documents/ EA Games to the desktop? This will cause the game to generate a new set of 'clean' folders, so will tell you if your trouble is caused by your content/ user data, or if the game needs reinstalling.

Sorry it took so long to reply.  I have been painstakingly going through each folder in my downloads trying to isolate which file was causing it.  It turned out to be a hair file of which I have no idea which hair as the file name was mixed numbers and letters, not an actual name.  It took me hours of copying a few files back into my downloads at a time and seeing if messed up, but at least everything seems to work in Bodyshop.  That totally sucked by the way. I must have opened and closed Bodyshop at least a hundred times testing files.  :-\

Now I have to load the game and see if it fixed the issue in CAS.  My finders are crossed.

This is what I get for having 15 gigs worth of downloads.   :P

Thanks for the replies.  It's greatly appreciated.

All files without actual names should be summarily destroyed.
