Speaking of glitches with MC Cas, may i butt in? i am frustrated that CAS constantly crashes in both the EA version of CAS and with MC Cas. I change a Sims clothing and then I can't save the game afterwards. Which means I lose everything I've just done in CAS. It happens repeatedly and I'm frustrated that I am not able to change any of my Sims clothing, some REALLY need it. Because NOTHING gets saved in CAS. I got lucky one night as I was trying to change the clothes in a particular household because one family member got a change of clothes. But the rest of the household has been walking around in the same clothes for months. I can't save anything in CAS!I'm scared to even launch EA CAS and MC CAS now, because either CAS crashes, or the Sims who's clothes I'm changing gets grayed out, or I'm just kicked to my desktop because the game stops responding. Can someone please help me sort out why I am unable to save anything in EA Cas or MC Cas?

@mahoganywood - Not related to the specific issues the player on this post is addressing. But try pulling your entire TS3 folder out of Documents to the Desktop for safekeeping (you can put it back later), start up to force the game to generate a clean game folder, and begin a test game that will thusly have no mods, CC, or any kind of downloaded content. I know it's no fun to play with no downloaded content at all, but this is just a test. If you can get a sim into and out of CAS with changes saved successfully, then you most likely have "bad" CC in your original collection.

@JulietElysa : Kinky's mod messed up my game big time, so I no longer use it. However many of their animation mods are compatible.

Since removing KW no problems with CAS, lag, etc. You should think about removing it.

Actually although we really aren't supposed be talking about that mod much here (in any great detail anyway as it's off-topic for this forum), I would really like to know if removing it has a positive impact on MC CAS in particular for Juliet as well. We can then even more definitely add CAS to the list of things that we know it impacts and that could help other players.

Good to know some of the workarounds are doing just that :) Like Chain stated earlier "which bin/which CAS" just goes to illustrate how hard it is to isolate whats going wrong in the first place.
I took a look at the KW mod... Not that i would dream of conflicting with Overwatch but looking over some of the features; i believe much of the animations can be attained using "graphicalDaydreams" mod (which does not conflict), as for the topless bottomless costumes that can easily be attained for screenshot value using stylist and nude tops/bottoms.

I was unable to recreate this issue. I took my Sim who was already in the world and edited in MC CAS, gave him PJs for everyday and a man bun then saved to bin. Exited to edit town and entered CAS. Clicked the Sim bin and selected him and he still had his man bun and PJs.

Now how do I get him to talk to me again after I did this to him?

Might be a while. I think everyone else here knows that geometric patterned PJs are best reserved for formal wear.

Either formal wear or swimwear (a while ago I downloaded a bathrobe and saw a Sim that had aged up wearing it in the pool, it was hilarious) depending on the season. :) He may be interested in chatting with one of my Sims, hehe. I turned that vegetable tile pattern tacky pink and made her athletic fit resemble poorly made scrubs using that pattern... -evil laugh- :P

Removing KW did seem to fix the bin problem, though I don't have the patience for a complicated makeup to test that right now. I'll have to think about how I want to play the game from here.

By the way, how do you add pictures to the discussion?

They have to be hosted on a third party site. Then it's
