Well that was about the funniest few minutes of sims I have had.
I had 3 sims in TC that all had different problems.
They were all males with no accessories before they left.
1 ended up with a sex change, male head female body.
That sim could change into male clothes from the closet but ended up stuck in female pjs.
My second and third sims were both the same charactors in TC so ended up the same after the merge, heads and a devils tale and nothing else. then when I took them both to the pub they had grand poobah hats and a head, nothing else.
I showered one and he managed to get is hands back but still no body.
The other ended up stuck in pjs.
So the problem didn't to me seem to be consistant and I am sorry to say guys, I think its back to the backup.
Good try guys, hope u get it fixed soon.
