Naked Sim bug?
My sim came home from her job at the newspaper completely naked tonight. Is this a normal bug? I bought this game so I could enjoy it and my kids could play. I know they are just pixelated boobies, but still...

I have several screenshots and I don't use mods. Well, not on this game, at least.

I'm guessing you have the sims university? there is a bug thats related to the 'streaking' that causes sims to get out of the shower and not get dressed. There is another one thats related to showtime that pretty much causes the same thing.

One thing that sometimes fixes it is changing their career outfit to something else (plan outfit at a dresser), then change their outfit. Simple enough to see if that will fix it for you is just make the sim take a shower afterwards and see if they hop out and change into their normal clothes.

Yeah, I have University. It was only 10 dollars when I bought the game. It doesn't seem to play as smoothly as the original game so I haven't really played it yet.

That's not unusual. You don't have to actually go to University to get some of its effects in your regular game. As an example, go to some place where Sims normally congregate (the Bistro or somesuch) and see how many of them break out their megaphones and soapboxes or start practicing the school cheer. One saving grace is that Sims won't streak or skinny dip on any lot where there are teens or children, but forgetting to put their clothes on after getting out of the shower? Uhm, yeah.

Mine came home naked and decided to fix the sink in the kitchen that was broken. I have to admit I tried to swing the camera around to see what was happening when they were squatting down fixing the sink.
Do you have any mods? Their are innapropiate mods that do that to sims.

As a rule of thumb, Sims 3 is a buggy game, and really, all the expansions make that worse, some more than others.

I've not seen this bug before, and I don't know if my suggestion will address it, but you (and really, anyone playing this game) should check out a couple of mods that will help make the game more stable.

The mods are Overwatch and Error trap, and you can get them here:
Overwatch - http://nraas.wikispaces.com/Overwatch
Error Trap - http://nraas.wikispaces.com/ErrorTrap

These mods will help keep the game performing well, and prevent save files from becoming corrupt over time. They don't fix everything, but the game does run a lot better, and neither mod impacts gameplay at all.

yeah neither one of those address the nude bug, sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't.

Mine glitched out too. Base game with Supernatural and Future. No mods. It only happened on one character, unsure how it started, but it seemed like the uniform for work was missing. So everyday they went to work naked. <science track, although I have done the same track since with no issues>

I tried a couple of things, but I think it may be related to how I was saving the game. When I started to use "save and quit" each time it got better, could also have started with a shower when pick up arrived, unsure. Also noticed that when it was glitched out that when I went to click on the sim to change clothes the picture of the uniform I was supposed to wear was empty. Since then I always wait when using the change clothes option until all pictures are loaded...<have a slower pc>

You need to take care of it right away, What ever causes this escalates and eventually your sim will dissapear , I think it has something to do with there stress level,

Hi this happens when your sim's career outfit is glitched. For some reason Ea included a nude outfit in career outfits and sometimes sims will change into these outfits. You can fix this by changing their outfit with nraas mastercontroller.

You may also need the cheats module.

Usually you can also fix it by creating a new work outfit for them and deleting all the old ones.

Switch into work clothes, then "Plan Outfit" at a dresser. Make a new work outfit, then click the tabs for the older ones and remove them.
